Flynet Dashboard Server allows you to create highly visual and interactive dashboards to monitor your Key performance, risk and success indicators. Flynet Dashboard Server provides you with the means to surface data from all of your systems.

Providing a single view of your business from any device and from any location.

What makes Flynet Dashboard Server unique is the ability to surface real-time data from your heritage environment and combine this with key data from other systems to provide both operational specific time to target and or on/off budget views to more holistic departmental or organisation wide views that encompass a number of metrics to provide broader understanding.

Flynet Dashboard Server excels in environments where high volume real time transactional data isn’t transparent, for example providing large retail organisations with real time EPOS data, providing utilities suppliers with real time supply and consumption data, providing banking and insurance organisations with positional and customer trend data and providing manufacturers with real time throughput data.

These are just a few examples of how Flynet Dashboard Server can be used to aid organisations at the operational level with embedded analytics that can influence outcomes in real-time rather than the traditional Business Intelligence approach that allows you to reflect on data after events have occurred.

Using our WYSIWYG SQL browser Flynet Dashboard Server can sit on top of any traditional BI stack to present Key performance, risk and success data in a graphically stunning format making it transparent for users and consumers of the data to quickly ascertain and understand exception case and trending activities within their business.

How can Operational and Embedded analytics (real-time analytics) help my organisation?

A recent retail example provides a good narrative to drive general understanding around operational and embedded analytics. A large high street store is often broken down into departments, e.g. food, clothing, electrical etc. Each of these departments will have a daily target. For most companies getting interim positions of how they are doing against that target involves individual till visits or trawling through a back office green screen or ERP type system. Flynet Dashboard Server takes a different approach we can see that data at any time and from any device, so a department manager can be on the shop floor, quickly take out his phone, tablet or laptop, connect securely to our the Flynet Dashboard Server via a web browser and see instantly how his team are doing, how other departments are doing and what he needs to do to either drive harder toward his own target or help other teams who are slipping against their targets.
