NIRA overview
NIRA – THE FREEDOM YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR
We’re about to hand you the freedom to work with data like never before.
At last, you - the user - really can source, gather, manipulate and present business intelligence right there at your desk.
And all on a simple, self-serve basis.
So there’s no pestering the busy IT department, who may not be able to help at the drop of a hat. And no bill from IT for making tweaks to the system.
But here’s the really big deal: NIRA works just like Google.
The world’s first business intelligence search engine
Simply tap in your question in plain English, and NIRA gives you a whole list of hits from your database for you to explore.
Like Google, each match is listed in order of relevance. Plus, like Google, search results are given for every word or combination of words. So you have a rich source of cross referencing to dig into.
And with NIRA you don’t need to know the exact technical terms or strict protocols or other hocus pocus to extract the data you need. And there are no drop & drill menus to trip you up, either.
Working better with IT
It’s not only users like you who will welcome NIRA with open arms.
Your IT people will also approve. That’s because, no matter how flexible and dedicated they are, they’re just too busy with bigger projects to always help out precisely when you need them to.
Which means that when you really, really need that chart or graph or piece of information, sometimes you simply can’t have it.
NIRA will relieve the strain on them by handing you the power to do your own data handling.
But that’s not all.
Ask IT to build and install a new software solution, and it can take months to deliver. The only trouble is, by the time the thing is up and running, you may well need the software to do extra things that wasn’t in the original plan. That means going back to IT and briefing it in again. The result? Delays, delays,delays; cost, cost, cost.
And in the meantime, you’re making important business decisions half-blind.
With NIRA, your reliance upon the IT department will dwindle to virtually zero. Simply ask and NIRA will give you all the data you need – in seconds. And if the IT people have just installed a new system to your specification, but you now need it to do something extra, don’t worry: NIRA lets you go in and make simple tweaks without sending it back. So you can always extract or manipulate the data you need.
That means your IT people can focus on high level development work without being disturbed.
And users like you can help yourself to the data you need, when you need it.
Looking beyond your database
NIRA is so clever, you can even import data from the big wide world of business. Simply click and drop in reports or data from the web into your database to keep it current with the
very latest intelligence.
Even better, the imported data appears instantly, so you can quickly share it with your colleagues. It keeps you bang up to date with business – and helps you make smarter decisions.
What price freedom?
Surprisingly, NIRA is truly affordable. Ask us and we’ll give you some ballpark figures or a definitive quote.
But don’t just think of the cost: think of the savings NIRA can make for you.
All those human man-hours saved not running to IT or taking up the precious time of the IT department. And all that money saved by not sending software back for revisions.
And then, just consider how much money NIRA can make you by giving your decision makers the most accurate, intelligent, comprehensive business information in the world.
Freedom. We believe you’ll find it priceless.
