1 LANDesk Data AnalyticsTurning Data Into Business Decisions Eric Garlepp Sales Engineer
2 Welcome “Baseball, it is said, is only a game. True. And the Grand Canyon is only a hole in Arizona. Not all holes, or games, are created equal.” — George Will Basically, not all management solutions are the same and not all data is the same as well. Not all management solutions are the same because with DA you can do a lot more than the other solutions out there. Secondly, not all data is the same especially when you can connect peripheral information like B2B, or others that are provided in DA and LANDesk..Just expand on that and then go into the wheel

X (mapped to) On VPN System Chassis – Portable/Notebook/Toshiba Laptop = Yes Computer.System.Manufacturer – Microsoft/VmWare/Parallels VM = Yes Model = Thinkpad + Chassis = Portable + Software = Office 2010 Meets Laptop Standard = Yes Configure multiple source attributes to single attributes. Even apply validation rules to the data map to only get the data you want Example: A computer model Number may or may not exist in multiple fields and what data does exist may vary. Apply data validations and map it to a single field for consistency Creating rules will allow a single attribute to be created from multiple source attributes Once data is in a single field you can target for reporting and distributions.
