Solarsoft Dashboards is the result of significant investment into research and development, made possible by the Company's recent expansion following a series of acquisitions.
Steven Hargreaves, Product Director at Solarsoft, says, "Business managers are tired of spending time trawling through reports and spreadsheets to get the answers they need".
"If UK businesses are to remain competitive then they need access to a true picture of performance against business objectives: for example, which products sell and in which regions? Which customers are most profitable? Accurate and timely information at your fingertips gives you the power to win orders in tough markets".
Hargreaves continues, "Solarsoft Dashboards benefit all operations within the enterprise".
"Sales Managers can use Dashboards to set effective sales strategies, analyse product margins and identify new market opportunities".
"For Financial Controllers, Dashboards provide a clear display of actual financial performance to budgets, whilst for Operations and Purchasing Managers Dashboards can easily monitor stock movements, and review outgoing and incoming delivery efficiency".
Jason Bissell, QlikTech Alliances Director for UK and Ireland, says, "We have been working with Solarsoft for 3 years and have successfully deployed our combined offering to over 26 customers with staggering success".
"So it was logical that we continued and expanded our partnership, especially given the increased demand for performance information".
"To meet this demand our strengthened partnership offers faster implementations targeted to supply simple and powerful analysis capabilities out of the box".
Hargreaves concludes, "Rapidly rising interest rates, a strong pound and global turmoil on the world's markets are all placing added pressure on the UK economy".
"If businesses are to remain competitive then they need access to the right information at the right time".
"Dashboards provide management with performance controls to help steer the way toward maximising profitability in a tough climate.".
