SuperSTAR offers Self-Service Business Intelligence solutions — the ability for business users to create any query or report they want, based on the underlying transactional data. This means users are no longer restricted to using canned reports or running queries against a pre-built data cube; they are provided with unrestricted access to the data.

Examples of data are: timesheet data for better project management and resource utilization; helpdesk call data for a more informed view on performance metrics; and financial data to which you can apply 'what-if' analysis to become better prepared for changes in the business environment.

Comprehensive Overviews

Data from a number of sources can be easily integrated in SuperSTAR to provide a comprehensive overview of different areas of the business. The overviews can be disseminated in various ways, including using executive dashboards, balanced scorecards, and conventional management reporting.

These overviews can help you and your business users better understand the core drivers of your business, and to better align actions with strategy. They can also can be used to focus attention on issues requiring immediate attention.

Access to Details

Business users can drill down from the high-level overviews to the underlying detailed data to identify and understand root causes.They can spot emerging patterns and trends, and forecast likely outcomes based on current and historical data.There are no intervening OLAP cubes, so your staff have direct access to the detailed data regardless of its size and complexity.

SuperSTAR's synthetic fields and 'what if' analytics avoid the need for business users to undertake elaborate transformations of data often used in ETL tools, because these transformations can be done 'on the fly' using drag and drop.

Applicable Enterprise Wide

SuperSTAR is applicable in all areas of business such as transaction and revenue analysis, human resource planning, customer relationship management (CRM), supply chain management, and internal performance, process, inventory, quality, and risk management.

Business users can easily access data by viewing pre-prepared tables or reports, by preparing a new table or report, or by undertaking customized analysis. This frees up other valuable technical resources that may be currently burdened with servicing report requests from these users.
