Better Insight with Self-Service Information

With BusinessObjects Web Intelligence, both self-service access to data and intuitive information analysis are available in one product, helping your users turn business insights into effective decisions. With a few mouse clicks, users create a query from scratch, format the retrieved information, and easily analyze it to understand underlying trends and root causes. And if they don't require the full power of query capabilities, users can simply explore information in existing reports—formatting and interacting with data to meet specific needs.
