DALLAS--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) announced today that it will help improve data management and operating effectiveness for its clients with new operational intelligence dashboards for two of its financial management systems.

Developed on the versatile Microsoft SharePoint platform, both Tyler's EDEN and MUNIS financial management solutions now offer a role-based dashboard—a Web-based tool that enables users to launch their Tyler system programs and other applications from one work area. Employing SharePoint technology is consistent with Tyler's product development strategy, which includes a strategic alliance with Microsoft Corporation to jointly develop core public sector functionality for Microsoft Dynamics AX.

Tyler's dashboard proactively delivers integrated content, including alerts, workflow approval requests, notifications and actionable Business Intelligence through SharePoint Web Parts. Tyler's unique view implementation allows definition and organization of content tailored to the needs of each user's role, optimizing their efficiency and productivity.

Users can further personalize the appearance of their workspace by creating and organizing favorites. These can be anything from frequently used product functions to external applications or Web sites. The dashboard boosts user efficiency by proactively surfacing content, trends, notifications and alerts rather than forcing users to comb through the system in search of the information needed to support their role. Administrators or IT staff can further extend this capability or customize the dashboard using SharePoint Web parts.

"Tyler Technologies is committed to empowering our financial management clients to make informed decisions by placing information at their fingertips. Giving users access to what they need, when they need it, helps public sector organizations work smarter. Our new dashboards do just that. They ease the flow of work, bringing operational intelligence together with data to increase efficiency," commented John S. Marr, Jr., president and chief executive officer of Tyler Technologies.

Tyler's financial management software and services integrate information across an entire organization, driving operational efficiency, while keeping user experience a priority. From routine accounting transactions to human resource management and Web services, Tyler's solutions specifically respond to the needs of public sector agencies. Tyler's financial management systems currently serve more than 2,700 clients.
