Operational Impact
Since implementing Informer, users have access to far more data than in the past, and reports no longer require a database administrator to create or modify. It is now a quick and easy process for IT personnel to generate complex reports and then allow end users to fine-tune them as desired. | |
Users across departments are now sharing a common platform, so answering questions or helping troubleshoot an issue is much simpler. The ability to display and export reports into a variety of formats has also helped IT staff with more technical analysis. | |
Other users that previously would not have been allowed access to a particular system for security reasons can now have limited access to that system via Informer and its comprehensive security controls. The ability to export report results into Live Excel documents has also been a great help in this area for providing access to a very limited scope of data quickly and easily. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Reports that previously required manual generation and dissemination are now automated, saving significant time. | |
Users can now receive weekly or monthly reports that were either not possible or tediously done manually in the past. | |
The ability to generate complex, customizable reports that combine data from multiple databases has streamlined the reporting process. | |
