10/17/2006 - Effective reporting component for BI applications.
Present–day companies, in increasing frequency, are challenged to develop an effective enterprise-grade reporting system. When designing such systems, developers experience the following problems:
- Processing of a large body of historical data to determine trends of company development.
- Unified appearance of reports according to corporate standards
- Effective data visualization which highlights relevant information
- Timely reports delivery
Report Sharp-Shooter by Perpetuum Software LLC represents a complex solution designed to help developers solve these and many other problems.
This component is fully compatible with Microsoft .NET Framework and contains only managed code. It is equally efficient for creating both Windows and Web Forms applications.
The problem of processing a large body of data can be easily solved by the built-in PivotTable component. Using all advantages of OLAP technology, you will be able to build cross tables by the specified criteria, integrate them into a report, and, as a result, to conduct a thorough analysis of the provided information.
The ability to graphically present and visualize data is provided by the Report Sharp-Shooter built-in charting component. Moreover, product integration with the Instrumentation ModelKit makes it possible to visually present data as various gauges or indicators. Your reports will look even more professional.
The design of numerous reports with a unified layout will not be complicated. The Master Report concept considerably reduces time required for this operation. Just create a common appearance form once and use it as a template in further reports design.
The convenient report Wizard makes working with Report Sharp-Shooter even easier and intuitive. Just a few mouse clicks, and the report is generated. No need to waste your precious time in developing reports programmatically.
The opportunity to export reports to most popular formats (HTML, PDF, Word, Excel, RTF, Gif, etc) implies various ways of reports delivery: Internet, E-mail, and Intranet. Reports can be printed at any time even without being exported. So, just-in-time delivery of reports is guaranteed.
Applications created with Report Sharp-Shooter meet end-users requirements due to the convenient designer which can be used to design and edit reports, as well as to modify final documents.
Perpetuum Software LLC pursues a very flexible licensing policy that enables customers to find an optimal balance between available investments and required functionality with the prospect of increasing production capacities as and when needed. Moreover, we offer a free but limited product version, Report Sharp-Shooter Express, which is an ideal solution for independent developers and small-size companies.
