Problem: Data mining and reporting are essential for keeping track of your business data. But an overly complex database system makes the learning curve too steep to spend time and resources on writing your own reports.
Solution: MAS has years of experience creating business reports, from simple data listings to complex drill-downs, charting, and analysis. We support two of the most popular reporting tools (Crystal Reports and SQL Reporting Services) powered by SQL Server or Access databases. In addition to standalone reports, we can also create custom web reports to run on your company intranet or internet sites.
Problem: Your customer base is growing, and you need a dedicated Customer Relationship Management (CRM) application to offer the best possible support to your customers. However, you don't want to make an investment in a system that is not fully customized to your business needs.
Solution: MAS can create a comprehensive online CRM application for you, fully customized to your business. This would allow your customers to login to a secure application where they can view their account status, enter and review service tickets, view online reports for inventory and orders, and enter requests for quotes. We can enhance the application with multiple levels of security, so that different users or groups of users can access dedicated areas of the application. We can even integrate with your existing CRM software to enhance your ability to support and track your customers' needs.
Problem: Business users use spreadsheets to store and maintain sensitive business data. But your order processing software requires a specialized text file format for order detail input. Therefore business analysts must painstakingly pore over each spreadsheet for order information, inputting data one line at a time, a process which can take up to ten hours per order.
Solution: MAS can create a small, light, but very effective intranet web application which will seamlessly integrate with your existing software. The MAS solution can read the spreadsheet data and automatically create an output file containing order details in any format required (text, XML, Crystal Report, or even PDF), saving you time and money.
