Why InetSoft for Creating Reports?
Powerful Reporting Application
Our 100% Web-based, zero-client reporting software will provide your organization with all the right tools and features to help you satisfy your needs and wants. With the slew of available options, like real-time viewing, queued reports to email, and/or server and client-based printing, users have control over the data they want to utilize and present for simplified and/or thorough viewing and analysis.
In addition to all the available options, we also make using these tools and the interface user-friendly. Without losing quality on the final product, users can customize their report using the software's word processor and HTML-like layout, exclusive library of presentation elements, and expanding formula tables. Other services include configurable data and report page cache, simultaneous report threading control, clustered reporting, and bursting and scheduled reports.
What makes InetSoft's solution ideal for enterprises of all different sizes is the element of security. By allowing individuals, roles, groups, or functional modules security control on data cells, reports, and folders, users can maintain tight security over their data and network. To beef up security, organizations even have HTTPS support and can encrypt PDF outputs.
Database Access
Architecture
InetSoft's patent pending Data Block technology, powered by Data Modeler and Asset Composer, enables speedy data access across a range of data sources including relational databases, multi-dimensional databases, Web services, flat files, and more:
- Data Modeler - arranges raw data into business data items such as models and queries
- Asset Composer - creates more sophisticated, fine-tuned, data assets represented as Data Worksheets.
In InetSoft's BI Suite, StyleBI, the Data Block technology is integrated into the server. For database sources, it takes full advantage of database power by retrieving data directly from the original source or from pre-aggregated materialized views.
Data Access Features
- Access Multiple Data Sources - connect to relational databases, multi-dimensional databases, XML, SOAP, EJB, Java objects (POJO), flat files, etc.
- End-user Defined Data Mashup - combine data within a single data source or across multiple data sources into unified data sets using union, intersection, minus, inner/outer joins, etc.; simple drag-and-drop interface gives business users maximum self-service – a unique capability of StyleBI
- Reusability/Collaboration - reuse objects such as queries, worksheets, viewsheets, and report components for efficient team collaboration
- Virtual Private Model (VPM) - create virtual private models to limit data-level access by user, role, or group designation
- OLAP Overlay - create multi-dimensional hierarchies on top of a logical model
- MOLAP Cubes - supports Essbase, IBM DB2 OLAP Server, MS Analysis Service, and Oracle OLAP
Accessible Databases and More
What makes a good report is the information embedded into the report. InetSoft helps organizations obtain meaningful data by allowing access to numerous databases including relational databases (JDBC), multidimensional databases, XML, SOAP, Java beans (POJO), Microsoft Excel, flat files, SAP, PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, and Siebel CRM.
Data Mashup
A key success to InetSoft's business intelligence software has always been the data mashup capability. Data mashup allows for users to combine disparate data, from our slew of databases (along with others), to be used together. It's a platform on operational BI with an intuitive user interface that accelerates the usage of BI. Requirements that include reporting, OLAP, scorecards, dashboards, visualization, and ad hoc analysis are all met in one unified application.
"In keeping with our strategy of combining best of breed solutions with our own, we set out to find a technology partner to add advanced business intelligence capabilities to our EAM suite.
As our core solution is Web-based, that was a key criterion in our selection process. Beyond that we narrowed down our choice to InetSoft for their software's ease of use, in terms of integration and dashboard development for us, as well as for the plant or facilities managers who need an intuitive and attractive interface.
An added benefit was the ease of working with InetSoft, from the flexible approach to licensing terms to the help offered early on in the development cycle.�
