By working strategically with the power of data, SMEs can position themselves for success in a digital future. Setting up a data warehouse for analyzing and reporting structured and semi-structured data from multiple sources doesn\u2019t have to be costly. And there are plenty of reasons to do it. The three main advantages of centralizing data are:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3>1. Democratization of data within the company:<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p>Cloud solutions provide a unified overview of the business. No matter where you are, you can access up-to-date data on areas such as finance, sales, customer service, and operations. With data consolidated in one place, you ensure a common foundation for making informed decisions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>2. Scalability and security:<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p>By using cloud solutions, the company gains the ability to scale up or down as needed, without massive investments in hardware.

Flexibility and innovation:<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p>SMEs can tailor their solutions to meet their specific needs. They can choose the services that best fit their business model. When data is centralized, companies can quickly implement new solutions and adapt to changing demands, such as using AI or Machine Learning to predict growth and identify opportunities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>\n<h2><strong>Case: From manual Excel exports to accessible data in the cloud<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In a medium-sized company, we encountered a case that represents challenges many businesses face. Every week, the finance department exports data from their CRM and ERP systems for reporting and forecasting the company&#8217;s financial performance. Since this data does not include historical information, aggregated data is exported weekly from the systems to Excel spreadsheets. It is a manual process performed by the finance department.<\/p>\n<p>The historical aggregated data in Excel is used for reporting to management on the company\u2019s performance, both retrospectively and going forward. Additionally, the company\u2019s CFO, CEO, CCO, and sales department use the data as a source to generate their own reports.<\/p>\n<p>The issues with the current solution are obvious:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3>Lack of automation:<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\" xml:lang=\"DA-DK\" lang=\"DA-DK\" class=\"TextRun SCXW111286813 BCX9\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW111286813 BCX9\">Data import is a manuel process.\u202f<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Difficult to scale:<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW34366748 BCX9\">Excel is used as a data <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SpellingErrorV2Themed SCXW34366748 BCX9\">warehouse<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW34366748 BCX9\">.\u202f<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Accessibility issues: <\/h3>\n<div>\n<p>Multiple departments rely on data, and access to files can be unnecessarily complicated and not secured in case of outages.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Security as an administrative burden:<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p>Backup, data replication, and access control become a significant task.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>\n<p>The company&#8217;s stakeholders agree that the current setup is inefficient.

With the three main benefits of centralizing data in mind, it&#8217;s clear that there is significant value to be gained from a cloud-based solution.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest challenge in choosing a standard tool is keeping costs to a minimum \u2013 even for less data-intensive solutions. Historically, data warehouse solutions have been out of reach for smaller companies due to the expensive hardware required and the high management costs.

For example, in the specific case where the goal is to generate new leads based on sales and financial data. The long-term ambition is to use AI to create a list of sales opportunities from the company\u2019s existing data. At this stage, data becomes not just a static retrospective tool but an innovative asset that generates added value for the business.<\/p>\n<p>The specific case from the finance department of a mid-sized company is a good example that shows how SMEs can centralize data in a standard cloud solution.
