Analysis with PowerOLAP®

The ability to turn raw data into actionable insight can be a source of significant competitive advantage in today’s dynamic business environment. Data analysis plays a major role in strategic decision making as analysts are relied upon to mine the business data that will be used to identify and solve business challenges. The hurdle to this process is bringing together data from disparate sources throughout the organization, analyzing it, and reporting it to decision makers faster and more effectively than the competition.

Gather, Analyze, and Report in Real-Time

Imagine the value of your organizational data -- from all sources -- if it could be tapped quickly, analyzed multi-dimensionally, and reported easily. Now imagine if all this could be done using real-time, up-to-the-instant data.

"What if" analyses whenever and however you want

In PowerOLAP® or Excel you can enter "what if" figures that will help you chart the near- and longer-term course of your business. You can write changes and save them to a new model, entirely separate from current and historical data (thereby maintaining data integrity), but still combine them for reporting as needed.

With a few simple mouse clicks -- dragging and dropping "region" to the rows list box, and selecting/drilling down on variable costs only -- you can create an entirely different view.

Within PowerOLAP® you can create new views by stacking "dimensions," by selecting key elements, or by "drilling down" for quick analysis of differing parameters.

There are virtually limitless parametric views you can create from underlying data within PowerOLAP®, or even within a dynamically connected spreadsheet. Then, in Excel, you have the full range of functions available for creating standard or ad hoc reports featuring graphs, pie charts, and more.

So, what if, in next year's budget:

  • Shipping increases by 10%
  • Order processing staff increases by 10%
  • Variable benefits increase by 10%
  • But we are able to cut warehousing costs 25%

Let PowerOLAP give you the answer.
