Demonstration Webinar: Simplifying Partner Reporting with ActivityInfo

About the Webinar

Managing reporting data from multiple local or regional partners can quickly become a complex, time-consuming process. Having the correct system in place –one that goes beyond spreadsheets– is crucial to ensure data quality and timeliness, and consequently enhance your organization’s accountability, program delivery, and reputation.

ActivityInfo has been supporting partner reporting and collaboration since its creation in 2009 and has since evolved significantly offering functionalities that simplify the work of multi-partnered programs, consortia, and other stakeholders involved in information management.

During this webinar, we will discuss how you can use ActivityInfo to:

  • Centralize data collection and management through a unified and user-friendly platform that works online or offline
  • Implement granular data access and permissions so that administrators have a single view of all reports, and each partner has only access to their own data
  • Rapidly deploy and customize a management information system without any coding
  • Perform advanced data analysis and visualization to gain insights and share information

We will also present inspirational real-world success stories from organizations like UNHCR and UNICEF.

Since then, he has worked with organizations in more than 150 countries to deploy ActivityInfo for monitoring & evaluation.
