Why Clients like Finereport

In general, enterprises may encounter the following problems during data processing:

● Business data shot up yet few of them are used for operation analysis and business control.

During informatization, enterprises witness an increasing amount of applications and data. Although most companies hold the opinion that data is a huge wealth, they don’t know how to use it. Most data is merely accumulated together without effective data analysis and display, and very little of it is used for making operation decisions, operation analysis and business control.

● Business data is dispersed and difficult to utilize.

In general, an enterprise has several business systems (e.g., CRM, ERP, OA) which operate independently from each other. In this way, business data is dispersed in different systems that are inquired separately (if necessary), making it extremely hard to utilize. What’s worse, such problems as multi-port collection, repeated entry, out-sync updating and different structures greatly impact the consistency and accuracy of the data.

● Manual data processing results in a heavy workload, low accuracy and poor security.

When management needs to inquire into comprehensive cross-department and cross-system data, the business department has to manually summarize and adjust it via excel, leading to a heavy workload, low time-effectiveness and the increased probability of data error. In addition, monthly and daily reports are made by month and by day separately, making it inconvenient to prepare, maintain and view the data. Excel has a simple authorization function and cannot guarantee data security, which may greatly damage enterprise interests.

● Original reports fail to serve new businesses from fast business adjustment.

When an enterprise adopts custom reports for business analysis, the original reports may not meet the requirements of fast-growing businesses. In this case, secondary development is generally required to adjust the reporting system, causing large burdens on the final users and software companies. Furthermore, the lack of linkage and comparisons among the reports makes it difficult to conduct further comprehensive analysis.

● There is no uniform reporting management portal.

Although each business system has its own directory, there is no a uniform portal in which the leadership can inquire or manage all reports and allocate authorities.

● The report display is too simple and specific, failing to give management a holistic view of all the information.

Generally, the built-in reports in the business system only have basic data summary and display functions, but lack the rich visual display and analysis of data, not to mention business forecasting and pre-warning in support of multi-business applications. Therefore, it is difficult for the management to grasp global information and make overall decisions.

● People on business trips cannot view reports conveniently.

Today, the mobile office has became a trend. With mobile terminals, management can make better use of their fragmented time and take real-time control of the enterprise wherever they are. However, due to all sorts of reasons, at least 80% of enterprise reports still depend on PC terminals to be inquired and filled, greatly hindering management in grasping the enterprise information and making timely business adjustments. Restricted by the above problems, the decision making of management is still dependent on experience due to the absence of accurate and effective information, bringing adverse impacts to the management and operation of the enterprise.
