Encourage User Adoption of Advanced Analytics with NLP Search Analytics!

You have selected an advanced analytics solution and deployed it across your enterprise, but your business users are not cooperating! One of the primary reasons for poor user adoption of this type of tool is that the tools are too restrictive and too difficult to use. Perhaps IT created the dashboards and they do not meet the needs of your business user, perhaps the business user needs help to engage with the system. Your users may have tried their best to use the system but the results they receive when they search are not accurate or do not meet their requirements. An advanced analytics system that is not intuitive, is complex or requires programming skills just to perform a simple search is not going to work for your business.

“We (TaskFlow Answer) are a leading company over 55 years of diverse international experience in the health care industry with our Referral Answer system. With the help of Smarten multi tenant framework, the architectural and framework development efforts were brought down for our customers and increased the productivity thereby saving both time and money.

With the help of Smarten’s efficient internal resources we were able to develop end user modules like Revenue, Compliance, Inventory, Fax, Resupply, etc. quickly and efficiently. The smarten team took an understanding on our database tables, views, etc. and independently worked on our database to have the bottom line – SSDP of smarten – in place. We have had very challenging deliverables and Smarten team has come through for us. The diligence, professionalism, and integrity by their team have made our collaboration a remarkable adventure. I look forward to our continued work together.”

“The pre-Smarten era was a difficult phase for us in terms of Insightful reporting. Being a versatile solution that has experience in handling pharma clients, Smarten coped up well with our complex reporting requirements. Our requirements were more complex due to multiple data sources, and our complex sales team structure and dynamic sales incentive structures. Smarten team worked with our team to build the base structure of staging database and key reporting structures, and then our internal team could expand it further on their own with support of Smarten team. The complete browser-based application and easy to use interface helped us develop our major modules like Sales, Incentive, MIS, Profit and Loss, etc. and also to automatically distribute the reports to the entire team through the scheduler functionality. We  look forward to a long term relationship with Smarten on our journey to the BI analytics.”
