Key Features
Ad Hoc Reporting, Query, and Analysis for Business Professionals
With BusinessObjects Edge Standard and Professional 3.0, your decision makers benefit from flexible ad hoc reporting, query, and analysis via the web-without relying on IT. Through an intuitive web interface, any business professional can access company data (presented in business-friendly terms), analyze it using simple point and click, and format it to meet personalized requirements. Users have complete flexibility in how they access, format, and interact with their data both online or offline. "Gut-feel" decisions are replaced by accurate, data-driven decisions!
"Live" Data Access within Microsoft Office for Business Analysts
Incorporating data into presentations, spreadsheets, and documents is often a time-consuming task-especially when you need updates. With BusinessObjects Edge Standard and Professional 3.0, users can conveniently access and use "live" company data directly in familiar tools like Microsoft Office and SharePoint. Because the data is "live", it can be instantly updated while retaining all formatting and calculations in the Office document. Plus, the information is secured to ensure colleagues can only view and access the data they have the rights to access.
Interactive Dashboard Viewing for Executives and Managers
For executives and managers, both BusinessObjects Edge Standard and Professional 3.0 let you deliver personalized business dashboards and visualizations built using Crystal Xcelsius, an award-winning dashboard design tool. With simple point-and-click, users can interact with visual sliders and gauges to easily identify new opportunities and challenges. Plus, "what if" analysis lets managers proactively understand the impact of their decisions before they are made. Users can also present multiple business intelligence content in a single view to receive a quick and consolidated glance of your business performance.
