Xcelsius Dashboards

Xcelsius provides visually impressive and interactive presentations. Xcelsius is a powerful presentation tool that bridges the gap between static spreadsheets and the need for visual, interactive presentations.

Xcelsius software illuminates the business by providing consolidated views of key metrics, making it possible to answer business questions at-a-glance. It allows users to interact with their data with what-if scenarios and other visual components.

With Xcelsius, the user can create dashboards for personal use – Xcelsius provides the power to transform complex data into a comprehensive dashboard created from Microsoft Excel or a live data source. The dashboard can then be exported to a familiar format – Microsoft Office, Flash (SWF) files, Adobe PDF, and Adobe Air.

Voyager

OLAP Cubes

Business Objects Voyager allows business analysts to explore OLAP data using a tool designed specifically for them. Users can access the full range of OLAP data sources available within your organization and share results using a simple, intuitive web interface.

Voyager delivers a full range of functions for the analysis of multi-dimensional data sets. Users are able to quickly answer business questions and then share their analysis and workspace with others, spreading knowledge beyond the confines of a single department or group.

Built with the analysts needs in mind, Voyager enables analysts to discover trends, outliers, and details stored in their systems without the help of a database administrator.

It is our understanding that a new and more powerful OLAP client will be released by SAP going forward.
