Asad Mahmood will present SAP Analytics Cloud to deliver insights across SAP and non-SAP landscapes

In this session, Asad will share how important it is to make effective use of information both internally and externally. Asad will share itelligence’s experiences when it comes to provisioning information to users and customers alike. itelligence now have modern and immersive BI tools which can help with this challenge but the importance of user adoption and the relevance of information remains a critical concern. The ease of use, collaboration and the ability to extract deeper insights using machine learning techniques has been a key driver for user adoption. itelligence have been working with customers who run SAP landscapes in conjunction with non-SAP systems and in some situations, have no SAP Applications at all. SAP Analytics Cloud supports all of these scenarios and Asad will step through these as part of a SAP Analytics Cloud demonstration.
