Why haven’t you incorporated CSD Analytics into your business strategy? Client feedback ranges widely—from not understanding its benefits to finding it lacks necessary reports, or even feeling overwhelmed by too much information.
Many find transitioning to Business Intelligence (BI) and Analytics daunting, especially with modern data presentations that differ from traditional methods. BI often presents multiple perspectives on the same data, which can complicate decision-making.
A significant 92% of Fortune 1000 companies cite ‘cultural factors’—mainly resistance to change from traditional practices—as a hurdle in adopting a data-driven approach. CSD Analytics aims to facilitate this shift by providing customizable tools within your existing CSD subscription.
- Format Flexibility: Some users prefer Excel for their reports, rather than dashboard or PDF formats. CSD Analytics allows data export from any dashboard visualization into your preferred format, assuring that it can accommodate many workflow preferences.
- Graph vs. Tabular Presentation: Many users prefer viewing data in a tabular format rather than visual graphs. Switch it up in CSD Analytics by clicking the dashlet icon – a curved arrow in the upper right corner on the graph – to switch from graphs to tables using the “View Selector.”
- Accessibility of Reports: Many prefer email report delivery instead of system access. CSD Analytics, powered by Birst, supports scheduled deliveries to individuals or groups. Additionally, the Report Designer feature enables burst reports, sending tailored data to various stakeholders.
- Managing Information Overload and Branding Needs: The vast array of dashboard options in CSD Analytics can be overwhelming. To manage this, the platform allows for significant customization to ensure brand alignment and streamline interfaces. You can easily modify dashboards to include your company’s branding, remove unnecessary reports, add crucial ones, or design entirely new dashboards tailored to your operational needs.
- Customizations and Specific Requirements: Occasionally, the standard reports from CSD Analytics do not align perfectly with existing business metrics or reporting structures. If so, the full-featured Birst version included with your subscription allows for extensive customization options. Create custom dashboards or new reports using Visualizer for dynamic charts and cross-tab reports, or Designer for traditional, table-formatted reports. An upgrade to Birst Enterprise allows the integration of third-party data sources and the creation of custom data models.
By Utilizing the customizable features of CSD Analytics, you can transform data into accountable insights specific to your needs.
