Panorama Software, a global leader in proactive business intelligence (BI) solutions, and Harvey Jones, a subsidiary of Avisen, one of South Africa's leading BI consulting companies, have announced a formal partnership that was started in 2008. Harvey Jones will make Panorama's NovaView suite of BI applications available to its enterprise customers. NovaView will be the only specialised BI front-end product offered by Harvey Jones.
Panorama NovaView is a comprehensive and integrated BI suite that spans analytics, reporting, dashboards, scorecards, advanced visualisation and modelling. Known for its intuitive, easy-to-use interface, NovaView helps both novice and experienced BI users interact with data in powerful ways to generate insights that can impact their business regardless of department or industry. With its performance management capabilities, NovaView helps link planning, budgeting and goals to dashboards and scorecards for better business decision-making.
“BI is rapidly becoming a business imperative for most organisations. We believe the advanced visualisation, Web-based analytics, and report formatting capabilities of NovaView will be of immense interest to clients whose needs are maturing,” says Keith Jones, MD of Harvey Jones. “Panorama's BI suite will also help set our company apart as a provider of high-performance, scalable, value-added BI products.”
Founded in 1997, Harvey Jones is among the most successful and honoured financial reporting and BI solution providers in sub-Saharan Africa. The company, a Microsoft Gold Business Intelligence Partner and 2002 ProClarity Business Partner of the Year, has deployed solutions, either directly or indirectly, at De Beers, Eskom, First National Bank, ABSA, Edcon, SARS, Professional Provident Society and scores more clients in the region.
“Harvey Jones is considered among the elite BI specialists in the EMEA region. Its decision to go with NovaView as its exclusive BI front-end offering is both a compliment and a validation for the power of NovaView,” says Eynav Azarya, CEO of Panorama Software. “As BI platforms become increasingly commoditised, it's critical for firms like Harvey Jones to remain a 'one-stop provider' by offering advanced capabilities: something Panorama is proud to provide.”
Harvey Jones and Panorama are both closely linked to the Microsoft BI product ecosystem. Panorama NovaView supports Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services, one of the most powerful OLAP platforms available today, while Harvey Jones is considered South Africa's leading solution provider in the Microsoft Business Intelligence sector.
Harvey Jones will be one of the first regions to launch Panorama NovaView 5.5. The launch event is planned for Johannesburg in March. Visit www.harveyjones.co.za/events for more information or to register.
