Alpharetta, GA (August 14, 2009)
Emerald Software Group, LLC (Emerald Software) announced today a strategic alliance with Nextanalytics, of Ontario Canada,
whereby Emerald will incorporate Nextanalytics' reporting and business analytics tools into their AllegroHR Suite for
workforce management. Nextanalytics allows users to convert any raw data into useful business information by providing
intuitive and user friendly commands that abstract underlying complex data transformations and business intelligence. The
result is the most powerful and most dynamic analytics and reporting available on the market today, with which Emerald will
offer comprehensive workforce reporting, analysis, and dashboards.
Emerald Software's AllegroHR Suite is a web-based workforce management suite that includes new employee onboarding, employee
materials requisitioning, and personnel action notices. The entire AllegroHR suite leverages Microsoft(r) .Net technology that
provides functional efficiency for the workforce, and results in significant return on investment through business process
improvement; the AllegroHR suite is enabled by true Business Process Management (BPM) technology.
"Nextanalytics represents the next generation of business data analysis," stated Chuck Ros, President of Emerald Software. "Most
workforce management vendors provide a dashboard and reporting, but with our relationship with Nextanalytics, we'll be able to
take it much further, providing not only ad hoc reporting but true ad hoc analysis. We will be able to leverage our own experience
in BI and analytics, applied to the unique disciplines of new employee hiring and workforce management, and create functionality
for our customers that has not been seen before."
"Emerald Software immediately recognized the value of Nextanalytics for their clients," stated Jay Terrill, Vice President of Business
Development at Nextanalytics. "Emerald's business intelligence and HR process experience combined with the rapid deployment capabilities
of Nextanalytics add up to a very attractive package for AllegroHR Suite users."
