Why do you need Phocas?

In manufacturing, distribution and retail where complexity reigns the problem is: the data is often distributed across ERP, CRM and financial systems making it difficult for your decision makers to actually make fluid data-driven decisions. Phocas has served customer-centric and product-centric businesses like yours for 19 years. It brings critical data together and structures it in a user-friendly interface which becomes a central source of truth for non-technical people across all departments.

Product Profile

• Analytics – Turn your data into insights for smarter decisions – A cloud-based data analytics solution designed for the everyday user. Phocas Analytics delivers a powerful analytical capability that summarizes and visualizes complex information.

Financial statements (profit & loss, balance sheet and cashflows) can be customized.

Keep track of budget plans in the cloud, from anywhere, at any time. A workflow-driven approach allows multiple stakeholders to collaborate securely in real-time for accurate budgets.
