“Our goal at PDS has always been to look at our customers’ human capital management needs on a granular level and develop solutions that will simplify their business practices and processes,” said Pat Palmer, president and CEO at PDS. “The enhancements in our Analytics and Learning Management components in Vista 7.0.7 enable users to streamline processes, leverage the powerful data within the system and empower them to make better business decisions.”

Vista 7.0.7 Analytics component now allows for person-based analytics, in addition to the standard location, company and organization-based analytics that provide a more overall picture. By being able to drill down to detailed analytics on benefits information, payroll, performance, and much more, for each employee users can more easily measure and analyze data.

In addition, the Dynamic Dashboard has been updated with new graph types and the ability to copy Dynamic Dashboards to everyone within an organization or to certain users.
