Cypress Insurance Group Selects VUE Horizon Analytics From VUE Software for Data Mining and Reporting by Non-Technical Users

COCONUT CREEK, Fla., May 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- VUE Software^® today announced that Cypress Insurance Group has selected VUE Horizon Analytics, a user-friendly analytics and reporting solution. VUE Horizon Analytics will empower Cypress business users to access, analyze and present information directly from technology system data. By eliminating information technology (IT) team involvement in data mining and reporting at the business-user level, Cypress anticipates time and cost savings, productivity improvements, service optimizations and increased profitability.

Cypress sought to remove its IT organization from the reporting business, which had become excessively time-consuming. VUE Horizon Analytics gave the company a cost-effective solution for delivering rapid, reliable results its leaders can act upon. The result will be ongoing analyses of sales, marketing, financial, claims and customer data for making strategic decisions throughout the company.

"The key to success in any enterprise, especially insurance, is having timely and accurate data for informed decision-making. One of Cypress' goals is to be able to analyze data at all levels so we can quickly make critical business decisions," said Dan Colarusso, SVP of Insurance Operations and CIO at Cypress. "We chose VUE Horizon Analytics because it is very intuitive, and it is easy to install and maintain. More importantly, it is a business tool available on the desktops of individual users so they can run reports without involving IT. This should result in significant efficiencies for both IT and business clients. Business clients will have the ability to analyze data for both tactical and strategic business decisions. The advantage of this tool is that you can drill down deeper and deeper into data that is essential for the decision-making process. The goal is to optimize service as well as increase franchise value."

VUE Horizon Analytics supplies excellent business insight. Users can filter data, export reports, modify records, repeat queries and more without knowing computer logic.

"We recognize the critical importance of analytics in the insurance space and have made it part of our strategy to build user-friendly analytics capabilities into our product line," said Stephen Bruno, president and CEO of VUE Software. "Every insurance company should have data mining and reporting tools simple enough for business user to handle them. End users need the freedom to independently submit data-mining queries and generate customizable reports from large databases without involving the technical team."

The VUE Horizon Analytics dashboard supplies real-time analysis, whether the data source is a third-party vendor platform, proprietary or homegrown data warehousing system or VUE Software platform. The solution delivers tremendous value across all insurance verticals, including health, life, property and casualty (P&C), and distribution.

An independent product, VUE Horizon Analytics draws from any data structure. For more information or to schedule a demonstration, please call 1.877.488.3763 or visit www.vuesoftware.com.
