Cloud-based solutions have been growing in popularity in recent years. More companies are turning to them to solve their ever-growing list of business needs and stay agile in an era of digitization.
The majority of companies have deployed dozens of applications for helping them manage their day-to-day operation, but those systems rarely communicate with one another. Over 68% of employees in American companies say they spend at least 30 minutes a day switching between apps. Workers need new ways to manage apps effectively.
There is an argument to be made that this is the cost of doing business in these digital times, but companies like BlueTally are able to bridge the gap created by siloed apps by creating robust, yet easy-to-use, integrations for their platforms.
One of the latest of many integrations for BlueTally is our Microsoft Azure Active Directory integration. Using this integration, companies are able to synchronize their employees from Active Directory and checkout assets to them, without the need of manually adding employees into BlueTally.
Let's take a look at how this easy-to-setup integration could benefit companies using BlueTally who also use Azure Active Directory:
1) Maintain Data Integrity
When you're working in more than one system, it can be difficult to keep your employee information current. Data can disappear from one system to another if they are not synchronized when information is updated.
Due to its integration with Azure AD, BlueTally automatically updates data in BlueTally each time new information is entered in Azure AD, ensuring that your data is up-to-date and accurate.
2) Save Costs
Your employees time have a direct cost attached to them, and having them manually enter and update employee information in a system (or spreadsheet) which doesn't have this type of synchronization is not a cost-effective way of spending time.
The time that your company saves by using the Azure AD integration with BlueTally, is a more than enough needed return on investment of using the platform.
3) Reduce Manual Labor
Entering the same information more than once in multiple places is not only inconvenient, but it can be a time killer, particularly when you have a lot of users or are adding them frequently to the system.
Synchronizing your employee data in Azure AD with BlueTally saves you time and eliminates duplicate tasks, so you can reinvest it in more useful work.
