Meet Prism

Financial Metric Layer
Service

Context matters. Defining what gets measured, and ultimately managed, is unique to each company. These are your metrics.

Metric definitions can be scattered across an organization, buried in Excel workbooks and ERP-generated reports. These definitions are often altered, misconstrued, or erroneously applied to performance with reckless abandon. Keeping a competitive edge requires continuously monitoring performance. Prism, Overlay’s financial metric layer, is designed to allow you to define what matters most.

Prism crystalizes your business metrics across your organization from anywhere, at anytime. As your business evolves over time, your metrics and definitions can too. Unleash the potential of the data collected by your ERP by overlaying Prism.

Your ERP doesn’t know what it’s been missing

Consolidate your organization’s key metric definitions
Push past the reporting limitations of your systems
Apply required context to power better decision-making
