ComOps BI
Delivering insight at the point of action

Information is Power: The power to improve performance, create value and co-operate more effectively.

The challenge is getting that power into the hands of the people who can use it, in a form they can work with.

The ComOps BI solution is a complete product suite for your entire reporting, query and analysis needs - designed around role-appropriate access and functionality which ensures both mass usability and powerful functionality.

A Proven Platform

Microsoft has taken the Business Intelligence market by storm, gaining leadership in most facets associated with delivering insight across an entire organisation. ComOps BI leverages these Microsoft technologies, such as SQL Server, Analysis Server and Sharepoint, to provide a low Total Cost of Ownership and reliable forward development.

A solution that grows with you

The ComOps BI suite combined with the Microsoft Server platform technologies provides a scalable solution that can operate efficiently on a stand alone PC through to a fully n-tiered server farm.

This provides the ability to start small and continue with the same solution architecture as demand for information increases, minimising the risk of large expenditures without proven results.

The ComOps BI solution can analyse data from any ODBC or Ole-DB compliant source including most operational databases, excel spreadsheets, text files and xml or internet sources. For optimum performance a data warehouse is used to consolidate and unify these disparate data sets. The ComOps solution can work with existing data warehouses or our specialists can show you how a pragmatic, ROI driven data warehousing approach will deliver results fast with full scalability.

Analytics

ComOps BI Analytics uses a wizard approach for building analytics, providing the most powerful analytic capabilities on the market, while at the same time hiding unnecessary complexity from the run time interface.

Some of the feature highlights include:

Multidimensional and relational analysis
Dynamic 'Drillpath' enables navigation from any point to point
Export to Excel, pdf, csv, and email
Outline window displays Drillpath navigation and effected data
More than 40 chart types, 200 configurable chart properties and 'Create your own' chart style templates
More than 50 time-set, measure and member calculation templates
Ad-hoc creation of dimension member groups and group totals
Query monitoring and scheduling
Choice of username/password or single sign-in access
Integrated management of security permissions for users and groups - down to the dimension and measure level
'Find and Replace' handling of cube structure or member changes
System usage analytics

Dashboards

ComOps BI Dashboards provide a snap shot of relevant performance details such as transaction alerts, field force accomplishments, sales forecasts and order updates in a simple and easy to understand format. The Dashboards interface can be tailored to display a 360 degree view of different business entities with the ability to combine reports, graphs, drill paths, trend analysis, dials, alerts and key performance indicators into a configuration that best suits the needs of specific job roles.

Delivered over the web, elements can also be shared with audiences outside the enterprise, including customers and suppliers.

Unlike most BI web parts on the market, the ComOps web parts are an integrated extension of ComOps BI Analytics, making it possible for the dashboards to be created and modified by analysts and power users, not just IT specialists.
