To get the clearest picture, you must combine data gathered from your financials
along with information from your CRM, manufacturing systems, and every other database you maintain. In most of today's networks, data can be pulled from many types of data sources including SQL Server, Excel, Oracle, and Quickbooks. Plus you need to get the information in time to take action. It can all seem very daunting, but a good business software consultant can help you create reports and dashboards to get the intelligence you crave.
