What is Business Intelligence?
Business intelligence (BI) is not a new concept, in fact it’s been around for a while now. However, the definition is often blurred.
BI is a software that has the ability to highlight business data and present it in a way that is understandable. Reports, dashboards, charts, and graphs are all different tools that provide users with access to the different types of data, whether it’s historical, current, in-house, or external.
It’s a powerful operational strategy that gives organizations the ability to analyze information and really see how the business is performing.
Business intelligence will not tell you what to do nor predict a certain outcome. Additionally, it is not only about reporting. It’s a software that gives businesses the expertise to examine data, which will subsequently drive decisions based on trends and valuable insights.
A strong BI approach means businesses can identify problems, market current trends, solve underlying challenges, and find new opportunities for revenue growth.
GURUS BI Connector
For NetSuite users who are looking to expand their reporting capabilities with another BI software (Tableau, Looker Studio, Power BI), there exists a specialized integration to connect your data sources from NetSuite to your external system.
For example, organizations who have been long-time NetSuite users and have recently implemented a new BI tool, such as Power BI, might be wondering how to maximize the two.
GURUS Business Intelligence Connector is an analytical integration tool that collects data from NetSuite and automatically imports it over to a data warehouse for large data sets. NetSuite data is then formatted into your BI tool (such as Power BI) for high-class data analysis and quick business decisions.
This business intelligence strategy is one-of-a-kind as it allows business users to embed their BI reports directly back into NetSuite. Meaning your business analytics are viewable in both systems.
For NetSuite users who have outsourced their BI strategy, incorporating an analytics tool that sets up seamless data flows is the only way to master your reporting strategy.
