How to Ensure Your BI Project is a Success in 9 Easy Steps

Microsoft Dynamics GP Tips and Tricks
Vision’s most popular session is back again. Find out why users can’t get enough of this session. You’ll walk away with the tips and tricks that will help you improve job performance by enabling you to work smarter, not harder.
Maximize your Up Time

Winning in a tough economy
Use SharePoint Business Intelligence to capture the strategic high ground - The catchphrase for today’s CEO and CFO is value creation. The roles of the CFO at forwarding-looking companies have in recent years expanded beyond the traditional one of overseeing financial reporting and controls and has evolved to supporting the development of the business. Value creation includes everything from providing detailed performance analysis to initiating strategic initiatives and providing decision support. It is not ‘All about cost’!.

With SharePoint, there is the ability to capture and display financial data to truly empower the CFO with decisions to grow the business.
Search, Share and collaborate with SharePoint 2007
Most companies use a standard set of tools in the sales and marketing process, and are often paralyzed by the resulting boxed-in approach, of relying on out of date information and too many uncertain metrics to make decisions. With workflow, there is the ability to search, share and collaborate with documents within your group and as an organization.
DynamicsADvantage - Redefining the Way Media & Publishing Companies work with Dynamics GP
DynamicsADvantage provides functionality to track orders and contracts as well as manage subscriptions, renewals, and the billing and revenue recognition processes, all seamlessly integrated to Dynamics GP. It provides all the reporting capabilities Media and Publishing companies need in order to optimize their business strategic planning and decision-making process. Get a feel of the product and the new features provided in the new release for MS Dynamics GP 10.0.
Enabling a Holistic View of Your Business
A CRM system is not just a glorified Rolodex, but an integrated tool that connects your business to your customers and partners. The latest release of Dynamics CRM is not just an application to facilitate relationship management, but a platform with which you can create a comprehensive and unified view of your business. In our CRM sessions we will demonstrate the integration of CRM to other internal systems such as ERP, document management, web portals, and Business Intelligence/Analytic dashboards. We will also demonstrate the power and ease of customizations and 3rd party add-ons that extend the functionality of CRM.
