EUROPE MPS Monitor, Analytics, MPS, PowerBI<br />

MPS Monitor announces Analytics<br />

Advanced reporting and Business Intelligence (BI) features built into MPS Monitor 2.0<br />

which enable the creation of a customised analysis environment to dealers’ specific needs.<br />

MPS Monitor has released Analytics, a<br />

complete Business Intelligence platform<br />

based on Microsoft PowerBI technology<br />

and integrated into MPS Monitor 2.0, its<br />

Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution for<br />

remote management of printing devices<br />

and Managed Print Services.<br />

All MPS Monitor 2.0 users can now<br />

create sophisticated Business Intelligence<br />

reports, dashboards and interactive<br />

visualisations to make faster and more<br />

effective business decisions on their<br />

customers and devices data.<br />

MPS Monitor 2.0 Analytics is based<br />

on Microsoft PowerBI Embedded<br />

technology. Users can therefore fully<br />

enjoy all reporting and BI functions by<br />

analysing their data, without having to<br />

purchase a PowerBI licence, and without<br />

exporting or transferring data between<br />

different systems.<br />

Starting from predefined reports<br />

and dashboards, aimed at effectively<br />

presenting the most common<br />

information and analyses, MPS Monitor<br />

2.0 Analytics allows dealers to create<br />

customised analysis environments in<br />

which to blend, filter and interpret useful<br />

data in the main areas of MPS Monitor,<br />

such as connectors, devices, customers,<br />

printing volumes, consumable<br />

shipments, device fleet status, remote<br />

operations and a wide range of other<br />

information. <strong>The</strong> resulting reports<br />

are then easily shared with other MPS<br />

Monitor users and with customers,<br />

providing an optimised management tool<br />

that allows to understand and forecast<br />

the main KPIs in business operations.<br />

Analytics is accessed from the MPS<br />

Monitor main menu, and it provides<br />

the user with all the features offered by<br />

PowerBI: the creation, in Self-Service<br />

mode, of interactive dashboards that<br />

automatically update with data from the<br />

printing devices allows to customise and<br />

improve MPS Monitor’s user experience.<br />

“For over a decade, MPS Monitor has<br />

been the ideal solution for dealers who<br />

want to optimally manage their business<br />

processes,” said Nicola De Blasi, CEO<br />

of MPS Monitor Srl. “As a further<br />

improvement to the platform, already<br />

successfully adopted by over 1,500<br />

dealers across 55 different countries<br />

around the world, we now add the<br />

powerful features of Analytics, which<br />

allow the user to analyse and understand<br />

all the operational and economic trends<br />

and indicators related to their managed<br />

device fleet. <strong>The</strong> use of Microsoft<br />

PowerBI Embedded technology provides<br />

extremely sophisticated analysis even for<br />

users without previous BI experience,<br />

thanks to its extreme user friendliness<br />

and the wealth of knowledge that<br />

Microsoft makes available on this<br />

platform,” concluded De Blasi.<br />

MPS Monitor is a global solution for<br />

print fleet management and Managed<br />

Print Services. <strong>The</strong> platform is available<br />

in the Cloud, in Software-as-a-Service<br />

(SaaS) mode, for all dealers, of any brand<br />

of printers and in any country, who want<br />

to control their managed print services<br />

in a simple and efficient way, improving<br />

customer service levels and drastically<br />

reducing costs. ■<br />
