Phocas Business Intelligence Review: "Phocas - A great tool for small businesses"
HR Generalist
WHCI PLUMBING SUPPLY COWarehousing, 51-200 employees
Phocas is currently being used across the organization. We're able to track our sales numbers, warehouse productivity numbers as well as purchasing inventory on Phocas.
- Detailed tracking of sales numbers
- Timely updates - data refreshed every day
- Ability to work with our ERP system and extract data
- Ability to build reports
- Could be more user friendly
Phocas is well suited to keep track of sales numbers for small businesses like ours. It's not that well suited in writing queries, and there is some level of initial difficulty in figuring how to use the system.

Phocas has built its business model on exceeding customer expectations. We’ve operated on a subscription basis from the start and in the words of Phocas Group chairman and co-founder Paul Magee: ‘That puts the onus on us to perform’. And we like that. In fact, our whole company ecosystem is built around that ‘light bulb moment’ when customers achieve a breakthrough by seeing their business through fresh eyes.
