InfoCTRL Information

Info-CTRL develops solutions that revolutionise the use of data within organisations, improving security, flexibility and productivity. Excel is widely used by people in all areas of business as an operational productivity and reporting tool. However, the unstructured nature of spreadsheets makes relying on their output a corporate risk. This risk is exacerbated, rather than reduced, by corporate ERP systems as users find a way around them to accommodate their own way of working. Info-CTRL has developed a solution which is tailored to a range of business sectors. It combines the flexibility and ease of use of spreadsheets for the user with data governance for the company. Info-CTRL solutions enable all reference data used in spreadsheets to be stored in a secure cloud-based master database and downloaded for daily use. The master data can then be updated by uploading new information from the spreadsheets. This means that everyone in the organisation who uses spreadsheets for analysis and planning can work from the same set of master data, knowing that it is the most recent data available. And they can use whatever spreadsheet formats they prefer, however complex. What does this mean to the organisation? • Time saved across all business processes • Better data governance • Reduced risk • Safe and flexible use of spreadsheets – no disruption to working styles • Critical data is held securely, not emailed from person to person • Version control is effective and easy to manage • Increased accuracy / fewer errors • Improved financial management • Faster decision making • More secure mobile working
