Octopus - the business dashboard
Our gateway solution into data analytics, visualisation and reporting
Information is beautiful
We know that businesses and the people within them are faced with the challenge of extracting useful information from a mass of data in different formats. The volume, velocity and variety of this data can make it impossible to focus on the results that matter and important insights can be lost.
TiG’s solution is Octopus – the business dashboard. Octopus democratises data and makes it accessible to organisations that don’t typically have teams of developers and data scientists, leveling the playing field between SMB and enterprise.
Use the slider below to see how Octopus could change your data.

Data merged from four different data sources, presented in three different dashboards, refreshing every hour.
Implementation

Before we start to build the business dashboards that are included as part of the Octopus solution, we’ll go through a consulting process to help you decide which data streams and dashboards would be most useful to you and your business. This is driven by the outcomes and results the business is planning to achieve.

We were a young business when we first engaged TiG to provide our managed IT services. Through the work they did for us we built up trust in the partnership and asked them to join the tender process for our upcoming data warehousing project. Another provider was quoting 50 days of work for triple the cost, we were amazed by what TiG were able to achieve in a much shorter period of time. The results we have seen since then have confirmed it was the right decision for our business.
