Summary: DataSelf BI’s “consultant in a box” just got a lot smarter with 230 new pre-defined reports and KPIs, for a total of 780.
San Jose, July 16, 2008 — DataSelf BI’s “consultant in a box” just got a lot smarter—thanks to creative listening. Beginning now, the solution’s set of critical indicators for mid-size organizations comes with 230 more reports and KPIs—for a total of 780.
“Our customers’ needs continue to drive improvements in our predefined KPIs,” says DataSelf CEO Joni Girardi, “We’re always listening, and always considering whether a new set of KPIs can be valuable for other clients.”
One new KPI, for example, came out of a customer’s need to give Technical Support information to judge each caller’s overall importance to the company. To let Tech Support prioritize each call correctly, DataSelf created a cross-reference with two other KPIs: the customer’s completed sales over the past year and pending sales.
Salespeople also got new indicators. Staff can now improve sales by monitoring tech support history. For example, are there open support cases associated to clients with sale opportunities? Is tech support giving them the right priority? Also, a customer’s support history may provide cost insights to be factored into pricing.
“Our set of predefined KPIs often inspires our clients—they wonder what else can be measured and that creativity often feeds right back to our KPI package—it’s a win-win snowball cycle” says Girardi.
