COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF BUSINESS ISSUES
With BusinessObjects Voyager from Business Objects, an SAP company, your business analysts can explore online analytical processing (OLAP) data using a tool designed specifically for them one that delivers a full range of functions for the analysis of multidimensional data. 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 analysis group. BusinessObjects Voyager delivers: Powerful analysis and sharing of OLAP data Comprehensive data access Cost effective deployment options
But fast access to data is only half the challenge. Analysts also need to use specific time and business calculations to review potential business scenarios. Voyager does this by providing a range of its own calculations while also taking advantage of the most important functions currently available within industry-leading OLAP databases. Once an analysis is complete, insight can be easily shared with business users across the organization and beyond with the Business Objects business intelligence (BI) platform. Voyager allows business users to interact with the data, so they can explore and understand the analysis further, export results to Microsoft Excel, or save as Adobe PDFs for printing or archiving.
COST-EFFECTIVE DEPLOYMENTS
Successful OLAP data analysis is dependent upon users having access to the appropriate data, regardless of geographical location. Voyager is based on a completely modern Web design and takes advantage of the latest design techniques and technologies. The result is a functionally rich product in a zero client environment allowing you to greatly reduce your deployment costs. With Voyager, there is no need to develop, deploy, and support a completely separate system for analysts using OLAP data. Voyager is a Web-based tool offered as part of the complete BusinessObjects XI 3.0 platform, so you can centrally manage security, data connectivity, and documents driving down your costs. Its important to recognize that users need to access OLAP in a variety of different ways. Increasingly, OLAP data cubes are used as data sources for many different BI requirements, including production reporting and ad hoc query and analysis. Voyager is one part of a strategy that provides the right tools for the needs of each user. For OLAP information discovery and delivery, this strategy includes Crystal Reports, for direct data access to OLAP cubes for production reporting, and BusinessObjects Web Intelligence, for ad hoc analytic reporting with universes built upon OLAP data sources.
