Unifact Corporation Delivers Breakthrough Business Intelligence Software Platform



UniViz Analytics Combines Web Services and .NET to Bring Business Intelligence to the Masses

Boston, MA - October 28, 2003 - The spread of Business Intelligence throughout the enterprise has a new champion, Unifact Corporation, with the introduction and immediate availability of UniViz Analytics, the first browser-based ad hoc data analysis tool targeted at both business analysts and casual business users.

"As more companies look to leverage existing information technology investments, Business Intelligence software is becoming a critical tool in turning raw data into usable information," explained James Joly, founder and director of product management. "Many companies continue to struggle with how to effectively deliver that information to end users in a powerful, flexible way."

Traditionally, business reporting and analysis is accomplished through one of two ways: ad hoc analysis or static reporting. Ad hoc analysis allows slicing and dicing of data so that users can get exactly the data they need, how they need it. However, ad hoc analysis tools are quite complex and designed for power users and business analysts. Static reporting tools are much easier to use and allow casual users to view business data in a simple, easy-to-use format. However, these static tools aren't very flexible or powerful.

UniViz Analytics fills the void, handling the "last mile" of information delivery throughout the enterprise. UniViz Analytics is the first Business Intelligence reporting and analysis tool to put the power of information into the hands of business analysts and casual users alike, unlocking critical business value at an industry-leading price point.
