Sage Intacct helps to manage data, track the right KPIs

Planning prototypes

The right tools make any job easier, and Sage Intacct is the right tool for handling big data projects and tracking the right KPIs.

Experts predicted that by 2020, the digital universe would hold 44 zettabytes of data. If you’re wondering what a zettabyte is, and how 44 zettabytes translate into actual numbers, that’s exactly 44 trillion gigabytes of social media posts, smart device data, and multimedia content.

Big data has certainly captured the imagination of businesses everywhere. Everyone from the C-suite on down expects data; data drives decisions on everything from operations to fulfillment. Data captured at every point throughout the supply chain must be stored, managed, and updated. Add onto that new advances in barcoding technology such as 2D and 3D barcodes, augmented and virtual reality, and other platforms, including social media and mobile, and you’ve got an enormous sea of data.
