Migrating to System 9?
Are you looking to upgrade your existing Hyperion Performance Suite implementation to System 9? Not sure where to start? Are you asking yourself if it will be as difficult as migrating from Brio 6.x to version 8.x?
Factors to consider before you migrate.
When preparing for any migration, several factors should be taken into consideration:
- Which reports, users, documents are no longer being utilized?
- Are there additional data sources that need to be incorporated into the new environment?
- How do we leverage the new environment to be more integrated with BI at the organizational level?
- How do we approach the training and education of users on the new platform?
The Velaris Approach
Our first step in addressing these factors is a Velaris System Assessment. This exercise will provide a complete snap-shot of your existing environment and system performance. After a detailed review of your future requirements, we will provide you with a best practices roadmap on how to configure and implement your new System 9 environment and will do the hard work to make it happen.
Once the System 9 environment is implemented and your version 8 content migrated, Velaris will assist you further with our tested and proven delivery model. The Velaris Center of Excellence (COE) delivery model incorporates best practices, methodologies and experiences from hundreds of client engagements to help drive the advancement of BI and the expansion of user adoption within your organization.
