Infor ION Eliminates Information Silos
In modern business, every enterprise relies on an increasing number of IT systems to support various business functions–accounting software, CRM software, ERP software, etc.; however, operating your business with multiple, unconnected systems results in information silos that delay decision making, reduce productivity, and put you at a competitive disadvantage.
To combat this, we recommend highly focused software that solves specific pain points as well as an interconnected system that brings all relevant data together seamlessly, without having to search, sort, and manipulate data before you can use it. Infor Intelligent Open Network (ION) affords you that power.
Simplified Integration
When software solutions run independently, they’re not operating to their maximum potential. While each system provides your company with some of their key benefits, they create information silos which create confusion and slow business processes. With independently run software systems, you run the risk of creating data overlaps or overlooking the data completely. Integrating software creates a single source of truth, making it simple for employees to access data.
Infor ION takes the hassle out of software integration by making it simple to integrate both Infor and third-party software applications. This powerful technology provides a simple, scalable middleware framework that helps you achieve unparalleled end-to-end efficiency. Infor ION allows your business to freely and safely implement the systems it needs and keeps everything connected and cohesive.
Connect All Aspects of Your Business
Many businesses still operate each department independently; however, when departments don’t collaborate, they limit business growth and run the risk of overlooking crucial information.
Infor ION connects all aspects of your business, allowing your employees to communicate across departments and systems. Thus, facilitating better cooperation in your business. When you increase data collaboration, your teams will be able to respond quickly and efficiently to any situation and you mitigate business risks.
Further, the software streamlines workflows and makes it easy to access information from anywhere. With every process on the cloud, Infor ION puts information at the fingertips of those who need it most. End users can monitor critical business issues–from sales opportunities to production problems–via mobile devices and administrators can monitor and administer Infor ION applications. The system allows you to keep track of every person in the workflow and automatically holds everyone accountable for their responsibilities.
Customized to Fit Your Business
Every business is unique and, consequently, has unique business requirements. That’s why software with scalable architecture will fit your business now and in the future.
All aspects of Infor ION can be customized to fit your business. You can create custom workflows with a simple drag and drop system, assemble reports with the data you want to analyze, or let your employees create a personal notification interface that allows them to prioritize their notifications. The software also allows you to design, monitor, or change business processes, as needed, without IT involvement, allowing you to effortlessly mold the software to your business.
Greater Business Visibility
Knowing the areas of your business that are performing well and those that are not is critical- without this insight, you could be losing profits and funneling funds into the wrong places.
Infor ION allows you to proactively monitor and manage your workflow status and document traffic, identify workflow exceptions, monitor key performance indicators, and gain visibility into your overall business network efficiency.
The system collects and stores data workflow performance. By using this data and the software’s built-in report system, you can analyze and identify where your workflows are performing well and where they can improve. Plus, this is all done in the background and is automatically stored in a central location, making data location quick and easy.
