Using your data in an insightful way

Article contributor / Jacob Karr / Client Learning Consultant

Decision-making can be hard. Every day, we are faced with a myriad of choices — from what to wear to the office all the way up to the dreaded, ‘What do you want for supper?’. The same theory comes into play in our work. How do we prioritize functionality vs. features, growth vs. stability or service vs. process?

Whether dealing with big-picture items or deep into the minutia, we must make informed business choices. That’s where SHAZAM^® comes in with tools to help you with those decisions. One of those tools is Core Insight™ with Data Select.

About Core Insight

Core Insight is our online reporting tool designed to effectively manage your EFT services through SHAZAM. These pre-formatted reports can be pulled on demand or scheduled in advance. They can help provide contextual information on your cards, terminals and transaction performance.

Customizable report templates

The best part is that you’re not starting from scratch. The product provides you with 14 report templates to get started. These reports are valuable in themselves, but the true value lies in the customization aspect with Data Select.

Not every scenario you face will fit into a neat little box. Things can get complex, and you might run into specific questions you need to answer. Adding Data Select to the already powerful Core Insight will allow you to build queries specific to your financial institution.

Through Data Select, each report template can be built upon or narrowed to meet your needs. So, if you are afraid of analysis paralysis and getting too much information, don’t be. These reports can be honed to pull just the information that is valuable to you.
