A DSS sifts through and analyzes massive amounts of data, compiling comprehensive information that can be used to solve problems and in decision making. A decision support system (DSS) is a computerized system that gathers and analyzes data, synthesizing it to produce comprehensive information reports. A decision support system differs from an ordinary operations application, whose function is just to collect data. Decision support systems allow for more informed decision-making, timely problem-solving, and improved efficiency in dealing with issues or operations, planning, and even management.Advantages and Limitations of DSS: Fast:-- DSS is a fast method for taking decisions. Computers give us results fast. The data we need is displayed on the screen within a few minutes. We have to just take decisions overselves after getting data from the computer software. Automation: -- If you want to reward any customer then you don't need to worry. The software will know which consumer buy most of the company products and you will give them a 50% discount on their next purchase. So it automates the process of decision making. 3/5 Overemphasis on Decision Making: -- Clearly the focus of computerized decision making is on considering all aspects of a problem all the time, which may not be required in many of the situations.Business Process Outsourcing.
