Jedox 5.1: a new standard in self-service BI

Freiburg, Germany (ots) - Leading European business intelligence
(BI) software provider Jedox has released the latest version of its
award-winning BI solution: Jedox 5.1. With corporations across the
industry spectrum demanding greater speed, flexibility and automation
from BI solutions, Jedox 5.1 sets a new standard in self- service BI.

Jedox 5.1 revolves around data-driven modeling, which uniquely
combines the content depth of classic OLAP tools and the simplicity
of state-of-the-art data discovery software. The new solution brings
together the high-level planning process support and active modeling
functionality of OLAP tools and the ability of data-discovery
software to analyze data quickly and flexibly. By leveraging the
power of data-driven modeling, users can now create an entire OLAP
model with existing data at the click of a button, with the model
immediately available for analysis, reporting and planning tasks.

During the design process, Jedox 5.1 stores processing logic in an
import script, which means users can further edit the process and
reuse it at a later date. "With a kind of rapid prototyping, Jedox
5.1 users can quickly and autonomously generate sophisticated models
and test them in real-world scenarios. Users can now implement
results in a more productive and efficient manner," comments Jedox
Chief Technology Officer, Matthias Krämer.

Simplifying corporate planning

Jedox 5.1 also simplifies corporate planning. The new version of
the trailblazing Jedox BI solution allows users to enter planning
values and complex top-down distribution rules directly into the
software, select data entry options, and, if required, structure user
functionality according to user groups. "One of the benefits of Jedox
5.1 is that it lets you allocate costs more specifically and compare
budgets more precisely," explains Krämer.

Furthermore, Jedox 5.1 provides new predictive analytics
functionality, including forecast analysis based on the popular
statistics program R. As a result, users can use inventory data to
generate forecasts, timelines and other forward-looking analysis.

"We were recently voted a leading provider of self-service BI in
the prestigious BARC BI industry survey. With Jedox 5.1 we've raised
the bar and we continue to enhance our solution. This new version
sets the standard for speed, ease of use and the automation of BI
processes," says Jedox CEO, Kristian Raue.
