What Do End Users Want?
As data volumes grow and more business personnel require access to data, optimized reporting and analysis is critical. The widespread availability of business applications on the Web:
- Has actually boosted the need for better reporting tools and more interactive reporting capabilities.
- Opens the door to allowing many users, who otherwise may not have had access, to get at valuable information, bringing the power of analysis to the everyday user.
- Encourages more information sharing among employees, managers, partners, analysts, clients, suppliers/vendors, that is, any business user.
If you ask most business users what additional features they want in an application, more reports and graphs as well as more interactive BI tools like dashboards, information portals, and other visualization options will be high on the list.
With the wide availability of Web-based applications, many users may log in to a business application not to enter data, but just to view and interact with information—that is, reports—ranging from customer lists and product catalogs to application usage statistics, sales performance for the month or the quarter, or the overall performance of the business.
Many of today’s business users are savvy multi-taskers, who need quick views of data. They need Web-based reports with drillable charts and graphs, at-a-glance information dashboards and other sophisticated data visualization methods to view and manipulate information quickly no matter the time of day or their location.
