Business Objects and ASYST Intelligence, a leading Business Objects Enterprise partner, today announced that they are launching Crystal Vision in the local market on 26 October 2006.
Crystal Vision is an exciting and new integrated reporting and dashboard suite from Business Objects. Crystal Vision combines the strengths of Crystal Reports, the world`s leading report writing tool, with Crystal Xcelsius, the industry`s foremost interactive data visualisation tool.
Crystal Vision is designed to allow users to create operational reports, business dashboards, and interactive visual models - then securely share them "live" via Microsoft Office, Adobe PDF, and the Web.
"For companies already using Crystal Reports, Crystal Vision is a no-brainer if they are wanting to create interactive dashboards and business presentations from ordinary spreadsheets - then distribute them via the Web," says Paul Morgan, MD of ASYST Intelligence. "This package is also very affordable and easy to use - quickly giving business analysts and IT professionals a clear picture of today`s business`s performance, and better insight into tomorrow`s."
"From data access and report design to management, delivery, and integration with portals and applications, with our expanded Crystal product line you can give your employees even faster, easier ways to get the information they need to make smart decisions that improve company performance," says Joel Vestal, Business Objects Distribution Manager for Mediterranean Europe, Middle East and Africa.
"It is imperative that any IT professional or manager looking to drive organisational performance attend this launch to gain insight into one of the fastest, most cost-effective ways to present data visually."
