Original Press Release:
JasperSoft Launches the Professional Edition of JasperAnalysis to Extend Market-Leading Open Source Business Intelligence Suite
JasperAnalysis Professional Delivers Industry Standard OLAP Analysis Capabilities to the JasperIntelligence Business Intelligence Suite
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 24 / - JasperSoft Corporation, the market leader in open source business intelligence, today launched JasperAnalysis Professional, an OLAP analysis engine that extends the functionality of their JasperIntelligence Professional open source business intelligence (BI) suite. JasperSoft also announced updated versions of other applications in their suite, including JasperServer Professional, iReport design tool, and JasperReports reporting library. JasperServer Professional comes with a new web-based drag and drop Ad Hoc reporting interface.
JasperAnalysis allows a wide range of people in businesses to quickly explore trends, patterns and anomalies in their data. The product is designed to be easy to use via an intuitive web-based user interface for everyday business users, as well as provide the power required by business analysts. Analysis capabilities include on-the-fly drill, pivot, filtering, and summarization of data. Information can also be visualized using a wide range of chart types and options. JasperAnalysis is based on a relational OLAP architecture, so the data resides in standard RDBMS systems, and is based on the OLAP de facto standards XML/A and MDX that are widely used by other leading BI vendors, allowing the product to be integrated into existing infrastructure and leverage existing IT staff skills. Components of the JasperIntelligence suite that JasperAnalysis is a part of have been downloaded more than 1.6 million times and used in more than 10,000 deployments worldwide.
"JasperAnalysis Professional was developed in response to customer demand for a more complete open source BI suite of applications," said Paul Doscher, CEO of JasperSoft. "With JasperSoft's open source BI revenue doubling every quarter for the past year, we feel that our open source business is meeting the needs of people frustrated by the high cost and complexity of proprietary BI systems."
JasperAnalysis is available in two different editions: Open Source and professional. The Open Source edition is available for free download and use, subject to the GPL open source license, from the JasperForge.org community site as part of the JasperIntelligence Open Source suite. The Professional edition is the commercial version based on the Open Source edition with extended features, support, documentation, platform certification, quality assurance, and a managed release cycle. Both the Open Source and the Professional editions are distributed with visible and modifiable source code. JasperSoft currently has more than 4,000 paying customers of its BI products.
