User Profiling
Business insight for smart IT decisions.
Sumerian’s User Profiling analysis delivers unparalleled strategic insight into the consumption of IT services to reveal the true impact of user demand and behaviour.
One-stop insight into IT services consumption
User Profiling analysis leverages existing data from across your IT estate and business organisation to create an “IT footprint” of the services your users consume.
The resulting analysis provides fact-based evidence to tailor your IT services for specific user groups, radically improving IT-to-business alignment and optimising IT cost per head.
Definitive IT-business alignment
Predictive, proactive change management
By establishing a baseline of user demand, User Profiling analysis can model any number of change scenarios to your IT service delivery for specific user groups. User Profiling can also monitor the change during and after implementation to ensure you have a clear view of the actual versus expected impact, risks and ROI.
Evidence to target improved IT services
Because User Profiling analysis delivers a clear, granular view of how your IT services are consumed, you get the evidence you need to target new and innovative services to the right user groups.
Proving the business value of IT
Because User Profiling analysis is based on business fact, it provides the ready-to-use reporting you need to present your IT investment cases and value to the boardroom.
