Solution	UniCredit involved MicroStrategy in the study for a new solution.

In just a few weeks, UniCredit experts alongside MicroStrategy consultants developed the first set of dashboards using the powerful functions of MicroStrategy 9. The BI4Sales application and its relative dashboard have enormously increased UniCredit's ability to monitor business trends and client portfolio performance. The dashboards allow for the consolidation of numbers, metrics, and performance scorecards in a single window, designed for specific functions and visualizing metric templates that favor a single point of view. The BI dashboards enable data extraction from heterogeneous sources and the tailoring of the interface. Read More Log in to view content
