05/22/2006 - Interactive Reporting and Multivariate Analysis in .NET Apps Become User-Friendly.

Constantly researching multivariate-analysis technology for .NET, Perpetuum Software has improved its products and announces the release of the updated version of OLAP ModelKit™ that facilitates access to the multidimensional data required for making decisions.

Present trends in business development indicate the importance of the problem of dynamic and high-quality interactive mass-data analysis. The use of imperfect pivot tables cannot provide either adequate analysis or optimal decisions.

Undoubtedly, every company needs a tabular report generator that is capable of manipulating multidimensional data. Perpetuum Software LLC offers an effective solution – OLAP ModelKit™ 2.0.

The improved version includes a set of popular and familiar functions as well as new ones. OLAP ModelKit™ is completely written in C# and includes only .NET managed code. However, product flexibility and functionality is comparable to analogous ActiveX components. OLAP ModelKit™ features all the requirements needed for the creation and maintenance of professional business intelligence applications. As well, optimization of the library core allows increased calculation speed and decreased short-term memory usage. It is possible to carry out calculations using a separate thread without user-interface “freezing”. It is also possible to manage calculations manually. An interactive value grouping has been added in order to raise the quality of the analysis. At the same time, you can use any .NET data sources including ADO.NET and IList.

Perpetuum Software makes an effort to assist developers with component learning, adjustment, and embedding and, as well, end users with reports management. To make quantitative data analysis easier, sorting by total columns is available. Separate utilization examples are replaced by a unified samples browser. Now, an example which demonstrates the required functionality can be found in a moment. The human-engineered user interface supports any style, including XP. Alternatively one can use custom styles that can be kept on file for further use. The built-in expression language and user-friendly wizard let you adapt applications and add custom fields, dimensions, and clauses. These operations are available at the pivot table visual design-time as well as at application run-time. If the export of a cross report into an Excel table is required, HTML or PDF can be executed.

OLAP ModelKit™ is fully compatible with Microsoft .NET Framework versions 1.1 and 2.0. The delivery package includes unit tests. Full source code is available.

Perpetuum Software is confident that the use of OLAP ModelKit™ 2.0 will assist the client in obtaining optimally-structured information, presented in a visual form that provides guidance for company development and effective resources allocation.

A fully functional evaluation version is available as a free download.
