SkyHawke Technologies Tees Up Enterprise Success With Host Analytics on the Bag

Migrates Smoothly From Hyperion to Increase Agility, Accountability, and Insight


REDWOOD CITY, CA--(Marketwired - Jul 25, 2013) - Cloud-based financial application provider Host Analytics today announced that the SkyGolf® team at SkyHawke Technologies LLC has migrated from Oracle's Hyperion Enterprise application to Host Analytics cloud-based enterprise performance management (EPM) suite. SkyGolf is now using Host Analytics to consolidate and analyze information across its multiple business entities, as well as provide a centralized planning system to give more budget owners direct access to critical financial performance information.

SkyGolf is a leader in technological innovations designed specifically to improve golfers' play. Headquartered in Ridgeland, Mississippi, SkyGolf is the creator of the SkyCaddie, the number one rangefinder in golf. The SkyCaddie uses a mobile GPS device designed to give real-time distance information on 29,000 courses around the world.

SkyGolf chose Host Analytics in response to a need for an updated, centralized system. With Host Analytics EPM suite, SkyGolf is able to provide streamlined data access to a broader audience of business users and budget owners, and to accelerate its regular financial close process. They also now have better visibility into their profit margins as well as simplified compliance procedures. Finally, like many technology companies, SkyGolf wants to devote as much of its technology resources to product development and innovation rather than supporting complex on-premises applications. With Host Analytics, the Finance team at SkyGolf is able to maintain the system themselves, eliminating ongoing dependence on busy IT resources.

"And because our software embeds best practices and is regularly updated with automated upgrades, customers get an improved application and user experience in addition to a successful migration."
