ECI Software Solutions Unveils New “Builders” Feature for Horizon ERP, Delivering Next-Gen Self-Service Analytics

New ERP analytics tool empowers users to create custom dashboards and reports in minutes, no SQL or data science expertise required

19 August 2025– ECI Software Solutions, a leader in cloud-based business management software, has launched Builders, a new suite of self-service analytics tools for Horizon ERP users. As part of ECI’s Cognytics platform, Builders enables users to create custom dashboards, widgets, and data views directly from Horizon and without requiring third-party tools or IT intervention.

This launch reinforces ECI’s innovation-first strategy and commitment to giving customers smarter, faster, and more flexible ways to use their ERP data.

“Businesses need analytics that work the way they do,” said Brian Bowerfind, President of ECI’s Distribution Division. “With Cognytics Builders, a warehouse manager can quickly build a dashboard to track daily order volume, while a CFO can create custom business reports, all without needing a background in SQL or relying on IT. Every role gets the flexibility to build and view the data that matters most to them, in a way that makes sense for how they work. It’s analytics on their terms. Not a one-size-fits-all tool.” 

Builders features four core tools for users of all experience levels:

• Dashboard Builder – Design dashboards with drag-and-drop widgets and filters for any level of expertise.
• Widget Builder – Build KPIs, charts, tables, and reports with easy drill-down options.
• View Builder – Create custom views with drag-and-drop ease-of-use or dive in with SQL expert tools across Horizon’s full data set.
• View Datasets – Search and explore all available Horizon tables and fields.

These tools are designed to meet the evolving needs of growing businesses, helping users tailor insights to specific roles, reduce reporting bottlenecks, and make decisions faster. With Builders, Horizon users gain the flexibility to work with data in ways that align more closely with how their teams actually operate.
