Reporting breaks down in predictable ways

The data already exists. It just does not arrive in a shape anyone can decide on.

Technical

Reports show column names only IT understands.

Insight: Translates raw, technical fields into concepts anyone reads: headcount, FTE, cost, turnover.

Inconsistent

“Headcount” means three different things in three reports.

Insight: Every metric is defined once and consistent everywhere it appears.

IT bottleneck

Every question becomes a ticket and a two-week wait.

Insight: Ready-made dashboards you can read and drill into yourself.

Locked in

Trapped in one vendor’s dashboards you can’t extend.

Insight: Read it in Popay, or feed the same numbers to your own BI tool, no lock-in.

The fix

The business layer on your people data

Insight reads the data in Popay HR and translates raw, technical data into business concepts: headcount, FTE, cost, turnover, absence, defined once and consistent everywhere. Readable without technical knowledge.

Then it meets you where you work: read it in Popay’s own dashboards, or feed the same trusted numbers to your BI tool. The definition stays the same wherever you look.

Your BI or ours

Same numbers, defined once, consumed wherever you already work.

Where you read it

Use our dashboards, or your own BI

The value is the business layer underneath. Where you read it is up to you.

Popay dashboards

Ready-made views you can read yourself, no setup, no BI licence, live from your data.

Your BI tool

The same concepts and definitions, straight into the tools you already run. Your dashboards.

One truth

One definition, both ways

Because the business layer is defined once, “turnover” means the same thing in Popay and in your BI.

The real questions

Frequently asked questions

Is Popay Insight a separate product?+

Yes. Insight makes the data that sits in the Popay HR platform available to report on and analyse. You read it in Popay’s own dashboards, or you feed it to your own BI tool.

Do I have to use Popay’s dashboards?+

No, that’s the point. The value is the business layer underneath. Read it in Popay’s ready-made dashboards, or feed the same business layer to your own BI tool. Your choice, no lock-in.

Will the numbers match between Popay and our BI?+

Yes. Because each metric is defined once in the business layer, “turnover” or “FTE” means the same thing whether you read it in Popay or in your BI tool. There’s no second version of the truth to reconcile.

Which BI tools does it feed?+

The same concepts and definitions straight into the major tools: Power BI, Tableau, Looker, Qlik.

Do we need data analysts to use it?+

For Popay’s dashboards, no. They are readable without technical knowledge and ready to drill into. For your own BI, your analysts get a clean, business-defined feed instead of raw technical tables, so there’s far less modelling to do.

Does Insight need Popay Core?+

No. Insight reads the data that sits in Popay HR, whichever modules you run. Where data from systems outside Popay comes in, Insight sees that just as well.
