Castle brings unique business intelligence solution to Scotland

Leading Scottish Software and IT Services company, Castle Computer Services, will be the first company to introduce the revolutionary QlikView business intelligence software to companies in Scotland.

QlikView’s revolutionary technology simplifies analysis for everyone. It is user-friendly and provides superfast ‘in-memory’ analysis capabilities by dynamically integrating and presenting data from multiple data sources, or a single Excel or text file.

It is an extremely powerful business intelligence solution that works across almost all company systems, including Accounting, CRM, Distribution, Manufacturing and HR Systems to provide the user with a single view of the business.

Where QlikView provides a real advantage to the user is the intuitive way it allows the user to analyse the data, enabling them to continue asking questions of it, spurred on by the answers they receive, without having to write new reports, to get to the heart of the matter.

QlikView’s patented technology employs a simple user-friendly dashboard interface and never restricts the user in the pursuit of knowledge that might be hidden in operational system data. Reports are not pre-determined, as with traditional business intelligence systems, so the user can ask the questions that they want.

George Strathie, Software & Services Director, Castle Computer Services, said: “This is the first time that non-Corporate organisations have had the opportunity to employ affordable business intelligence and analysis tools that go way beyond the limitations of the spreadsheet. As companies continue to look for ways to maximise their efficiency, the need for effective, simple business analysis tools has never been greater. QlikView is powerful, affordable and easy to use and can deliver a speedy return on investment for users. It delivers a level of business intelligence that was previously only affordable to large enterprises in a fraction of the time it would take to implement a traditional business analysis solution.”

Castle is so confident in the success of QlikView that the company is offering “seeing is believing” one day customer demonstrations using some of the customer’s own data, showing them how to use the system and giving them the opportunity to see what they can discover about their own organisation.
