Accessible from multiple device types, Unisys VantagePoint can help organizations improve productivity significantly. It gives workers a single view of IT services available to them and simplifies the ordering process. VantagePoint also delivers enterprise-wide data relevant to specific roles in an organization, enabling IT operations and business unit owners to see the business impact of delivered services in near real-time and make more informed decisions.

"IT and business leaders are awash in data but often lack practical, personalized information needed to help them do their jobs," said Larry Dunn, VP, solution portfolio management, Unisys Global Managed Services. "Through the use of advanced analytics capabilities, we transform data into truly useful information for making informed business decisions and minimizing the adverse business impact of service events on the organization."

Dashboards typically capture data only from one system or technology provider and the information isn't always tailored to their specific requirements. As a result, managers and front-line personnel lack a full, unified view of data available to them, hampering their ability to make informed decisions quickly.

Unisys VantagePoint uses advanced analytics and a visual presentation layer to aggregate information from multiple sources and delivers it in a personalized way to users in a unified view, via a tile-based graphical interface. It also enables IT organizations to manage IT services from external as well as internal providers, tracking costs, performance to SLAs and other critical factors.

Unisys VantagePoint brings together three service views of the enterprise - People, Operations and Business - to assist in the delivery and consumption of IT services and provide fast, simplified access to role-relevant information.

Workers in various roles throughout a company can now receive a more personal set of business services and support based upon these unique role-based personas. Services, support levels and devices are all aligned to fit the day-to-day needs of the specified persona.

The VantagePoint solution provides organizations a business services catalog that people in various roles can use to order IT services. For example, a home worker can use Unisys VantagePoint to order and track delivery of a new company-provided mobile device. Similarly, a director in IT operations can utilize Unisys VantagePoint to order services from any of a range of cloud resources, whether a hosted private cloud or a public cloud.
