New Orleans, USA – (March 2, 2009) –Zap, an international software company that creates solutions to help enterprises improve corporate performance, will showcase its Zap Business Intelligence for Microsoft Dynamics range at Microsoft’s Convergence 2009 conference in New Orleans from March 10-13 at booth #407.
“In the current economic climate, businesses worldwide are increasingly looking for ways to reduce costs, streamline cash flows, and increase sales,” said Garth D. Laird, President of Zap. “Market demand for improved data visibility and reporting is on the increase as organizations scramble to dissect their businesses to help determine their downturn strategy. However, solutions must deliver fast implementation times and a rapid return on investment (ROI) to gain approval.”
Jamie Taylor, Chief Financial Officer at Q Video Systems and Zap Business Intelligence for Microsoft Dynamics NAV user, confirmed the benefits his company receives. “We use analysis to identify slow moving stock, inventory trends, and restock points,” he said. “End-of-month reporting also would typically be a 3-5 day process, but with Zap, we can now complete the same reporting in a single day. Looking at the capital outlay and time versus the benefits, Zap’s Business Analytics solution paid dividends immediately.”
At the National Kidney Foundation in Singapore, Zap’s solutions are used to analyze data from both Microsoft Dynamics® CRM and NAV. “The ability to deploy quickly and build data warehouses easily despite our heavy customizations was attractive,” said IT Director Catherine Goh. “Ultimately we needed a solution that was agile and easy to use.”
Zap’s Zap Business Intelligence for Microsoft Dynamics solutions provide a powerful, flexible and central solution for reporting and analysis that reduces the reliance on unsecured spreadsheets, shortens reporting cycles, and enables staff in different geographies to collaborate easily. They are out-of-the-box solutions that are implemented quickly to deliver web-based dashboards, Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), scorecards, management reports, and ad-hoc analysis. A unique feature is the Zap CubeXpress, which enables Microsoft Dynamics customizations to be brought through instantly for analysis.
Zap is currently offering out-of-the-box solutions for Microsoft Dynamics NAV and CRM, with solutions for GP and AX coming soon.
