Hyperion, Siebel validate Essbase XTD with Siebel Analytics 7

Hyperion has announced the successful integration of its Essbase XTD business intelligence platform with Siebel Analytics 7. The joint Hyperion Essbase XTD and Siebel Analytics 7 solution will deliver unprecedented insight into the dynamics that help companies improve their business performance and planning processes.

Essbase XTD underpins Hyperion`s business performance management suite, enabling an enterprise-wide process for setting goals; managing plans; measuring results; and driving visibility on financial, supply chain, channel and organisational performance.

Siebel Analytics 7 provides a set of analytical applications that leverages all enterprise data and that delivers to all employees pre-built, actionable, and intelligent dashboards incorporating industry best practices for marketing, sales, service and industry verticals.

When combined, Essbase XTD leverages Siebel Analytics 7`s real-time, actionable customer intelligence, enabling customers to better plan, model, and evaluate the dynamics that affect their business performance. "Our customers are looking to extend and enhance the capabilities of their operational enterprise applications," says Johan Cloete, CEO of local Hyperion distributor Global Technology Business Intelligence. "Siebel and Hyperion are providing business software solutions that analyse customer data in a way that both evaluates past performance and predicts future success."

Essbase XTD helps companies align disparate parts of an enterprise, giving managers a single set of facts on which to base analyses and model various scenarios and decisions, and to map company objectives and strategies to day-to-day operations.

Siebel`s validation of the integrations between Essbase XTD (Hyperion Essbase 6.2 and Hyperion Essbase Integration Services 6.5) with Siebel Analytics 7 is the latest advancement in the companies` strategic alliance. The Siebel Validation Programme applies rigorous technical scrutiny to evaluate the integration of third-party solutions with Siebel eBusiness Applications. Integrations that meet the rigorous standards of Siebel`s testing criteria are validated and documented by the Siebel Alliance Programme.

"Hyperion`s validation is a strong confirmation of Siebel Systems` open architecture," says Catherine Cherubino, senior MD, alliances for Siebel. "Now Essbase XTD can provide insight from Siebel eBusiness Applications and other enterprise data sources, allowing joint customers to better manage and model their critical business dynamics and understand the factors affecting business performance."
