*Video transcript*

Hi, I'm Jack Shannon. If you're [looking for ERP software](https://www.visualsouth.com/how-to-select-erp), you're probably wondering how are you going to get the data that you need out of that ERP software.

Infor understands this. So, this is what Infor has to offer:

- True business intelligence that is natively connected to your ERP database. Turn your data into knowledge; access that knowledge from any device.
- Dashboards that provide users with an easy to understand visually intuitive, graphical representation of key business performance indicators.
- Query tools to find what you need and display it the way you want it.
- Nonproprietary databases that allow you to use Excel as the presentation layer of the data you want to see without entering that data into Excel.
- And of course, literally hundreds and hundreds of pre-configured reports you can use as is, or you can modify.

When it comes to getting data – knowledge - out of your ERP, Infor has you covered.
