Benefits of using Infor Query and Analysis

With Infor Query and Analysis, you get familiar-looking desktop applications, so you can quickly and efficiently create reports that highlight trends, patterns, and exceptions through an intuitive report designer. Users can get up and running quickly with minimal training and technical skill because the software is integrated with Excel.

Yet, you still get dynamic, multi-language, multicurrency, business intelligence tools that are powerful, flexible, secure, easy to use, and via a consistent interface throughout the software. And as it is self-service, users require very minimal IT support and involvement. As a result, maintenance is easier, too.

You can quickly and easily analyse business data, measure performance, and be more reactive with access to real-time data. You can make inquiries in many ways, and get multiple options for visualising data, including multidimensional cubes and charts.
