Business Intelligence for Every one
<advertisement>
What is Business Intelligence?
Business Intelligence (BI) is a practice that employs collection, integration, analysis, interpretation and
presentation of business information to help a corporation to better understand the market behavior and
business context, thus assisting decision making.
Combined with Microsoft SQL server and its Analysis services, “Strategy Companion Analyzer 2007” allows
non-technical business users to perform interactive analysis and easily create new reports and dashboards
featuring a variety of components such as pivot tables, charts, web pages, scorecards, and more. These
eye-catching visualizations allow users to easily see business results and trends, allowing them to take
immediate action to improve performance.
Advantages of Analyzer 2007:

• Easy to Deploy
• Easy to Use
• Low Total Costs
Analyzer is being used successfully within a variety of industries such as banking, finance,
technology services, manufacturing, real estate, healthcare, insurance and others. The examples
are CITI, Loreal, Bosch, Johnson & Johnson, and 7-Eleven.
