With more than 95% of all UK businesses being SMEs, this sector has a vital role to play in pushing forward our economy, according to the recent “Ingenious Britain” feature in the Sunday Telegraph.
Ingenious Britain is an exciting initiative, with supporters including The Prime Minister’s Office, the Department for Business Innovation and Skills, and The OECD. Its role is to promote innovation in the UK to drive economic growth.

SAP BI ON DEMAND, BY THE POWER OF THE CLOUD
Posted: March 12, 2012 Filed under: SAP Business One News | Tags: BI, Business intelligence, CGA Enterprise Solutions, cloud solutions, Reporting, Reports, Sage 200, SAP, SAP AG, SAP Business One Leave a comment »Why do we use business software to manage our business? Generally, it’s because we want to know how we’re doing? Who’s our best customer? Which stock items are moving and which aren’t? Who’s our best salesman and who isn’t quite pulling their weight? This is basic information but you’d be surprised how many businesses don’t have easy access to this.
Getting full visibility of your business is crucial to its success but what if you don’t know much about ‘dimensions’ or ‘cubes’ or databases and or simply don’t have loads of cash to pay for expensive report writing?
Well, SAP has just launched a solution; SAP BI (Business Intelligence) OnDemand. It’s a cloud based reporting tool that enables users to upload data (e.g. a csv file) and generate meaningful, graphical representations in minutes.
Not convinced? Visit our BI OnDemand web page to watch the short video and see BI OnDemand in action for yourself. Then, why not try it for yourself for FREE? That’s right, sign up takes minutes and you too will be ‘visualising’ and sharing reports in no time, all via the power of the cloud.
