SPI Launches SPI InSights Using Microsoft Business Analytics

SPI Software, the vacation ownership industry’s preferred software developer, has recently launched “SPI InSights,” its latest innovative product in their expanding platform of industry-leading software platforms.

“Businesses understand that data equals knowledge; being able to easily collect that data on a daily basis is crucial to their success,” says Michael Del Pino, VP of Software Development.  “Having access to this data is priceless. As a software provider, our job is to help our customers manage and use this data correctly, while also providing every customer with all the necessary tools to be successful. SPI InSights is another example of putting our customers’ needs first.”

SPI InSights is an integrated partnership with Microsoft’s Power BI platform, a business analytics service provided by Microsoft. The new service provides business intelligence capabilities with an interface that is easy for end-users to develop their own reports and dashboards. By using Power BI with the SPI Software, properties can transform their data into clear visualizations that help them better understand their operation.    

Founded in 1978, SPI has built a series of reports, dashboards, and templates through Power BI that access the SPI software and are available for immediate use.  Current Dashboards include Salesperson Efficiency, Availability Snapshots, Tours & Sales Grids, Sales Center Scoreboard, Staffing Reports, Membership Dues, and Service Request Tracking.  SPI currently provides hundreds of pre-built reports with their current system, but every property is different and what works for one property may not work for another. 

“By using a tool like SPI InSights,” adds Del Pino, “we have opened up endless possibilities on the data analysis and reporting capabilities for our customers.More advanced users will be able to modify these templates and customize their own reports. Since SPI Insights uses Power BI, which is a global product, other data sources outside of the SPI platform can be accessed to create companywide dashboards and reports. This ability to consolidate data from multiple sources into one single, actionable destination provides insights into your whole organization, not just the data being managed by SPI. This application delivers a highly useful management tool for our base of SPI System users worldwide.”
