This article clearly explains what is MIS. It is not just analyzing. It deals with all the three, and that is storing, searching and analyzing the data. And you are not just going to require the programming skills for working effectively on the MIS, you need the complete knowledge of business, and you need to understand the CRM, SCM and the ERP. You need to understand various designations in business as well as you need to understand the business modules and how all of them are being coupled together no matter to what level they can be coupled. You need to bind them together at the very end. And this can be quite tough if the coupling is high as you might not be able to study the modules separately. And you will be required to study them all together in that case, however, you will have to, and hence some businesses can be tough. Hence, you need to understand which MIS is best for your business. You should understand that all the MIS cannot suit your business, but the good thing is that you will find a long list of MIS available in the market. You will find one for your business, or else you might contact the company to provide you a customized version. Or you can contact Oracle, Microsoft or SAP or any such to make an MIS for your business. However, the top five in common are being listed in this article, and with what, when and why.

Thanks to Krotov, this article helped me revise the basics. Certainly, if you are a small company, you will not require business intelligence software as you have limited data. However, if you are a big company then you need the BI software, and that comes with top MIS, as you need to study the data in detail, to find the information for yourself. And what means a piece of information for you might not be information for the Director. Hence, you need to understand the business levels properly, and then only you will be able to study the MIS, as the developers developing them are being provided the designs developed by the top business analysts, and they have detailed knowledge of the businesses they want to target.

Thanks to Krotov again. Being a future MIS expert, I know I need to be ready to ensure the best level of security for the organization I will be serving. And for that, I regularly read the relevant books, and I do not miss the articles, journals, research papers as well, as I know they provide refined knowledge. And this article gave me an insight related to the router network management, and I was able to revise the details I have related to the Router network management. Krotov has listed the top software for this, and what services they provide. Also, he has briefed why and when we should you these. However, I am further looking for how, and I am not blaming Krotov as he was briefing, and how it does not seems to be like being in the domain of this article in general.
