Business intelligence (BI) has reached a new level of importance for decision makers. Information generated from mid-market applications is at an all time high. But simply storing vast amounts of data and reporting in the traditional ways does not ensure effective BI. To be useful, BI must be dynamic, detailed information – available at the point of a decision, accessible when and where its needed.
BI solutions are seen as a means to turn information into an asset on which better decisions can be made. CIO’s are increasingly required to invest in technologies that drive business transformation and strategic change. The fact that BI is a top priority shows that CIO’s see BI as part of the answer, and they believe that BI can improve decision making and operational efficiency, which in turn drives the top and bottom line.
Users are also becoming increasingly savvy in using and manipulating information to their advantage. This together with a trend of embedding analytics into business processes will further drive the demand for BI.

The powerful data cubes are coupled with out of the box reports. But sage 200 BI is not designed to provide an exhaustive list of reports. Every customers reporting and analysis requirements are different so it would be impossible to try and anticipate each and every customers reporting needs. So it is possible to use the system to create your own reports based around your exact specific requirements. Sage 200 BI makes data much more actionable, uncovering trends and patterns that might otherwise go undetected.
