Gain the insights you need to make critical decisions
Welcome to the world of Business Intelligence 2.0—where you turn raw data into strategic
insight, in your browser, in real time. With Visual Fusion, everyone in your organization
can explore, manipulate, query, graph, and combine data for a more complete picture
of any situation.
Visual Fusion applications bring together data from your internal data stores and
external sources and put it all in the context of geography, time, and analytics.
For example, view sales data in the context of geography and demographics, or product
demand in the context of global events. Try out scenarios and share the results
with other.
By employing a common context—a map and timeline—you can see and share insights
that would otherwise be buried in spreadsheets and reports.
Integrate business intelligence tools
In addition to the map and timeline, your apps can incorporate familiar analysis
tools like charts and graphs. Right out of the box you can visualize your customers
across location, time, and a revenue graph all in the same, interactive interface.
You can also integrate Excel, Performance Point, SQL Server Analysis Services, or
other third-party components to help everyone make better, data-driven decisions.
Provide business intelligence for everyone
Visual Fusion's easy-to-use interface lets people navigate information in a natural,
intuitive way, without special training or expertise. And with tools like the App
Hub and Composer, anyone can create applications to apply business intelligence
to important questions. True self service business intelligence.
