Why do you need a 360 view of print management?

Dashboards can help the dealer and the dealer’s customer to make the best decision to achieve better results with print management.

It is no news that information is necessary to make good decisions, mainly in a world guided by data. However, the form of presentation can help the managers to understand the issues and try to find solutions to solve them or enhance productivity. 

A data dashboard is an information management tool used to track, analyze and show key performance indicators (KPI’s) and metrics. Dealer and the dealer’s customer will take advantage of this information to managing print – digital workflow enhances companies’ productivity –, because they facilitate the observation of relevant markers.

With this kind of metrics, the dealers’ customers monitor and optimize the process faster – and even the dealer can look at the numbers and customize the services to the client.
