Business Inteligence
Whilst Navision delivers the flexibility, reliability and usability businesses need to analyse and evaluate performance, Çedilla have developed partnerships with other leading suppliers of Business Intelligence products. Business Intelligence (BI) allows companies to ask more searching questions about the business, and interrogate your data systems more powerfully and dynamically.

Whilst we believe that ERP (and integrated business software systems) ought to be at the centre of any IT strategy for a business, Business Intelligence (and Enterprise Wide Reporting Solutions) may also play their role:

The growth in the use and deployment of the Internet presents new challenges for the management of information.
Increasing numbers of businesses from the service or distribution industry (with multiplying sales and related data requirements) require a method of pulling all data together.

There are increasing pressures on businesses to extract the data they need when they need it.
Data warehousing is now being brought to the masses thanks to modular software solutions which are fast to implement, easy to use, easy to learn, and offer a quick return on investment.

Business Intelligence is no longer a prohibitively expensive software technology available exclusively to large corporations.
Small to medium sized businesses are now able to exploit the potential of Business Intelligence, able to benefit from the support of a local partner.

Data warehousing and extraction technologies can now be tailored to individual business requirements.
Çedilla can provide extensible and customised Business Intelligence solutions, and provide customers with a development framework allowing individual configurations. Çedilla are expert only in those scaleable solution Business Intelligence solutions which can grow with the business.

“Companies are under growing pressure to establish a unique position in the marketplace and to gain a competitive advantage. Products such as analytic tools and databases are becoming of growing importance to mainstream business operations.”
