Microsoft BI - PerformancePoint Server 2007: Planning

Microsoft Business Intelligence BI Software Products : PerformancePoint Server 2007: Planning

Get broad participation without losing control

Plans, forecasts, and budgets are critical and influence decisions every day. Even though people gain valuable insights from them, plans are often only created and updated on an "as needed" basis. We all go through planning and budgeting, but does the process need to be so time-consuming?

Instead, imagine full participation with everyone using a familiar interface, a flexible infrastructure, and a low-cost solution that manages the complexity so you don't have to. Better still, imagine how timely updates and accuracy will drive performance throughout your organization.

Microsoft Office PerformancePoint Server 2007 delivers all that, and it can help you:

• Drive consistency throughout your organization.
• Span planning needs across your enterprise.
• Extend your investments in Microsoft's business intelligence (BI) solution.
• Provide every employee with a stake in corporate performance management.

The planning capabilities of PerformancePoint Server put familiar tools into the hands of contributors across your organization, giving them a flexible, powerful environment that supports the budgeting and planning processes.
