You receive the monthly IT report and open it with cautious optimism, only to be met by a sprawling spreadsheet. Twelve tabs, 73 rows, and a maze of colour-coded cells stare back at you. The data is there, but the insights? Buried. Interpreting it feels more like a puzzle than a progress check, and you’re left wondering where to even begin.
The Problem: Reporting Without Real Insight
For many IT managers, monthly reporting is a box to tick. The data is collected, exported, and shared—but it often raises more questions than answers:
- Why did ticket resolution time spike last month?
- Is our SLA breach rate improving or getting worse?
- How are our remote offices performing compared to HQ?
The numbers are there, but the narrative is missing. And without clarity, it’s hard to make decisions, get stakeholder buy-in, or show where IT is truly adding value.
