Altico Launches Executive Dashboard for Microsoft Dynamics GP

Marlborough, MA (PRWEB) June 20, 2006 -- Altico Advisors, LLC today announced that it has developed and launched a new executive dashboard for Microsoft Dynamics GP users. Altico (www.alticoadvisors.com) has successfully tested and piloted the dashboard -- an innovative tool that allows corporate executives to access critical data and key performance indicators in real time.

The AED (Altico Executive Dashboard), which was conceived as an “aid” for busy executives and managers, can be customized for anyone in the company. The application extracts data from Microsoft Dynamics GP and then updates dynamically.

“Like so many companies, we have a limited number of people who actually use Dynamics GP every day and a somewhat larger number of people who want or need to see key information on a regular basis to do their jobs,” explains Andy Menard, IT manager at Nye Lubricants. “When Altico Advisors explained the concept of their AED (Altico Executive Dashboard) to us, we realized that the dashboard represented a way to satisfy both constituencies. Executives from various departments can closely monitor the up-to-date stats they need without running multiple reports. The dashboard extracts the numbers from Dynamics GP and displays them in real time. Each person sees only the data that is relevant to him or her. I’ve used similar commercially available tools in the past and the Altico Executive Dashboard is 10 times faster than any other Business Intelligence tool that I’ve evaluated, and exponentially easier to use.”

According to Altico’s principal Rich Maloney, “Access to information is a challenge for many companies, especially given the need to balance security with ease and accessibility. The AED was immediately embraced by our clients as the perfect solution -- secure, configurable, and easy to use.”

The dashboard displays key metrics in real time but does require a Dynamics GP login.
