Legacy BI systems create technical debt, slow product delivery, and limit user experience. Modern embedded analytics delivers real-time, branded insights, scalable architecture, and predictable costs. This guide compares old and new approaches, outlines how to choose the right platform, and shows how Reveal’s SDK-based solution helps SaaS companies and ISVs modernize without disruption.

It’s important that analytics and visualizations are embedded within the ERP software itselfitself, so users don’t have to export the data to a separate application. And if the analytics are easy for business users to use with self-service capabilities, then more people throughout a company can do deeper dives into a range of pertinent business data.

Having company insights at your fingertips is the most valuable advantage of mobile BI. You are not limited to one computer in one location, but instead, you can access important data information on your mobile device at any time and from any location.

Data-driven insights can help you identify business opportunities, detect customer journey leaks, and proactively identify weaknesses in your product before they grow into serious problems.  

The real value of embedded analytics is how it strengthens products and business outcomes. It shortens development cycles, cuts costs, and keeps analytics inside the workflow where users need it. The biggest payoffs are higher adoption, predictable ROI, and new revenue through monetization. With SDK-first integration, white-label control, and AI-powered insights, embedded analytics delivers scale, flexibility, and a lasting competitive advantage.
