Why Is Logi Report Free?
by LogiXML BIz Comm Editorial Staff
August 24 , 2006
LogiXML has chosen to offer our Logi Report product free of charge. Not surprisingly, many who come to our Web site ask, “Why is it free?” The reaction has been very strong in some cases with users saying, “This is the best report development tool we have ever worked with; I cannot believe you give it away!” As the adoption rate of the product continues to grow dramatically, we want to explain exactly why and how we choose to give such a strong product away completely free.
Why do we choose to give a great product away for free?
More Options for Emerging Businesses, Innovative Reporting for Everyone
At LogiXML, we take a fresh look at reporting. We believe that businesses deserve responsive and innovative solutions from their reporting provider. We choose to give Logi Report away for free so that you can realize firsthand the unique value that LogiXML’s innovations can bring to your organization.
Traditionally, a full reporting solution has been a luxury that most small and mid-sized business could not afford. We believe that access to critical data should be available to everyone, especially emerging businesses. Small businesses, more than any other, need the right tools to remain competitive. By providing free and cost-effective solutions, we are changing the reporting landscape.
Earning Your Trust
Logi Report is a comprehensive Web-based reporting tool, which some users choose to use to fulfill their entire reporting needs. In fact, Logi Report, the most basic version of our reporting products, offers many more (and higher quality) features than other traditional reporting solutions for which you will have to spend top dollar, while waiting on lengthy implementation times. By giving our Logi Report product away for free, users can personally experience the power of the most basic version of our reporting tools, and, thus, can gain a strong foundation of trust in our company and our products.
Early Commitment Translates to Our Longevity
We want to catch your interest and get you involved with our product, solutions and company very early on. The features we offer in our free version are based on more advanced versions of our reporting products. As your organization’s needs grow and change, we can grow and change with you. We feel that once you experience the powerful capabilities of our free product, you will spread the word to other developers and users as well as be open to evaluating our entire family of products and features as your needs develop. In our more advanced products, we offer many progressive features such as:
- Interactive analysis and advanced data visualization – Allows report developers to create more advanced reports and charts that users can fully interact with to further pinpoint critical answers.
- Advanced security – Lets you control not just access to reports but also to the data in those reports. One report can serve many users, while limiting who can see what data.
- Intuitive dashboards – Lets you provide real-time information in intuitive charts and graphs from various business systems across the organization such as HR, operations, sales, IT, and so on so users can see the state of business at a high level.
- Innovative tree and heat maps – Advanced visualization tools that give business users at-a-glance views of large amounts of complex data to identify trends and anomalies.
- Ad hoc reporting – Lets end users easily build their own Web-based reports without involving IT to answer critical questions on demand.
Active User Community Means More Innovative Products and Faster Growth
Because we encourage our growing base of users to discuss topics and provide suggestions and contribute ideas in our open discussion forum, we can offer better, more relevant product enhancements and increase the overall value proposition to potential customers like you. We are one of the fastest growing companies within the reporting industry thanks to our great user community.
