ATLANTA, GA–(Marketwired – March 09, 2016) – EPI-USE, a global organization that specializes in SAP and SuccessFactors solutions, today announced a partnership with Host Analytics, the leader in cloud-based enterprise performance management (EPM) solutions. EPI-USE is leveraging Host Analytics Cloud EPM Suite to more quickly and flexibly provide planning solutions across multiple departments at its global clients. In addition, EPI-USE will be able to deliver robust financial consolidation and reporting solutions that integrate and complement existing ERP systems. 

A global consulting firm with a 30-year track record and over 1,300 global employees, EPI-USE combines technical expertise with a deep understanding of enterprise applications to develop unique ERP, HCM and EPM solutions for its clients. Increasingly, the company has found that traditional deployment approaches were inadequate for delivering new cloud-native, multi-channel planning solutions as fast and flexibly as required by the business. With Host Analytics, EPI-USE now has a powerful platform that leverages the cloud in combination with the Microsoft technology stack. This allows clients to leverage the cloud for quick and easy implementation with no on-premises hardware to install. Additionally, it combines the power of Microsoft technology that clients are familiar with for reporting, including Microsoft Excel, Word and PowerPoint.

Currently, EPI-USE is leveraging Host Analytics Cloud EPM Suite across its portfolio of solutions and services and building a practice of skilled Host Analytics practitioners. Using Host Analytics’ robust platform, EPI-USE consultants can rapidly provide integration with SAP and non-SAP core systems and multi-channel applications. The Host Analytics Cloud EPM Suite has proven to provide an easy to use, scalable solution that can meet a variety of business needs, for medium to large enterprises. 

“In order to meet the growing demand for EPM initiatives, EPI-USE is combining leading services from its global practices with consulting services relating to Host Analytics solutions to help clients improve performance throughout their organizations. This expansion will allow us to further assist companies in how they deploy the next generation of technologies, while leveraging their existing IT investments,” said Erik Dinsmore, Senior Director of EPM Services at EPI-USE America.

“As world-class organizations increasingly become more data-driven, cloud-based EPM solutions are critical to ensuring that key stakeholders understand key market and business trends in order to align strategic, financial and operational goals,” said Andy Ross, Vice President of Alliances for Host Analytics. “EPI-USE is a tremendous addition to our rapidly growing partner community, and we look forward to the relationship expanding based on our joint track record of driving customer success.”
