Lighten Your Data Workload

Rather than losing hours dealing with data-update requests, set up browser-editable lists which streamline updates.

Data owners throughout the enterprise update content themselves, managing portfolios of assets, technologies, infrastructure, processes and projects.

Free up time to focus on analysis, strategy and communication. Access controls, permissions, approvals processes and change logs still allow you to keep a close eye on data quality and governance.

“Our ABACUS Dashboards and Editors ensure that the wider organisation can take responsibility for their own data and can access it in a self-service fashion.”
