Visual Fusion capabilities empower through rapid application development and insightful,
accelerated decision making.
The key capabilities of Visual Fusion combine to form a powerful
enterprise tool to build and benefit from business-focused applications. Superior
Business User Experience (BUX) is a hallmark of Visual Fusion apps and permeates
the product. With Visual Fusion, data from diverse sources can be combined in an
endless array of visualizations.
Visual Fusion brings 6 key capabilities to the enterprise:
Connects to virtually any data source, in the enterprise or on the Web.
Combine diversely formatted data, from many sources, in a single visualization.
Visual Fusion has native
connectors
to the most popular data sources, and through the
SDK, virtually no data source is out of reach. Visual Fusion also leverages
Microsoft's
SharePoint Server
for content management, so information that has traditionally been unmanaged (Excel
files, links to web/data feeds, KML files, etc.) can now enjoy appropriate governance.
With Visual Fusion, enterprise data can be woven together into meaningful views
that sharpen and complete the picture for information workers and decision makers.
Visualizes all information in meaningful context.
Visualize your data in a form that's intuitive and easy to use. When you consolidate
your data on the Visual Fusion
map,
timeline, or other data
visualization, it becomes accessible and meaningful to more people. Important information
is visible at a glance, and greater levels of detail are only a click away.
Speeds development with application templates.
With Visual Fusion's
App Hub and
Site Templates, apps can be created rapidly with content and structure already in
place. Use the same great apps day after day, or create new ones as unique situations
arise. With Visual Fusion, you have the flexibility and agility to respond to any
business need.
Lets you customize styles, filters, alerts and more.
Using Visual Fusion's powerful styling engine, you can define rules for assigning
icons, colors, line and fill types, buffering,
heat maps, and more, based on attributes of the underlying data. This kind
of visual communication makes patterns recognizable in ways that spreadsheets and
reports don't. Filters allow users to tweak their view of the data according to
their needs. Set up alerts, so that when events happen in a time or place of interest,
the right people get notified. Add your own custom icons in seconds.
Provides secure, permission-based publishing.
Leverage SharePoint group permissions or Active Directory groups to create custom
views of the same application; each group will see only the data that they are authorized
to see.
Promotes contribution and collaboration in real-time.
It's easy for anyone to add original content to the Visual Fusion ecosystem, whether
it's "feet on the street" adding photos via
mobile device
email into a SharePoint Picture Library, or users drawing areas and points
of interest in the Silverlight interface. Newly discovered web
feeds, loose Excel files, or any other pertinent data source can become part of
the app for the individual user, or be promoted and integrated into the app for
all to benefit. This can all be achieved without programming or DBA experience.
