Kate Burda & Co.Client Need
The client needed a comprehensive cloud-based solution to aggregate multiple, often disparate, data sources and then apply various sophisticated algorithms to generate reports for well-informed decision-making.
Requirements:
- A web platform with a highly intuitive user interface that provides role-based access and facilitates collaboration by various departments.
- Streamline, optimize, and automate sales, marketing, and financial data entry processes, prioritizing data security.
- A robust reporting tool that provides role-based access.
Product Challenge
Creating a web platform that effectively communicates intricate data sets in an easily understandable format, all while simplifying, refining, and automating the input of critical metrics that were previously managed in Excel.
Developing a user interface that empowers users to interact with the backend, while simultaneously constructing a secure and adaptable architecture to manage tenant provisioning, user licenses, and site management, ensuring a seamless and error-free data migration process.
The Xperity Solution
Xperity built Ignite, a comprehensive SaaS platform, for the client to deliver revenue optimization solutions. The platform is seamlessly combined with an intuitive user interface, promoting collaborative efforts across various disciplines. The entire architecture was designed with innovation in mind, ensuring a smooth transition from Excel to the cloud. In addition, data silos were dismantled to enhance decision-making and optimize revenue management.
This cloud-based model further facilitates the easy input of critical sales and KPI metrics, either manually or through CSV imports. Additionally, it offers flexible provisioning of a multi-level administration framework with predefined user access and roles. The introduction of Ignite serves as a gateway to precision revenue management and acceleration, ultimately boosting the profitability of key customer segments.
