Real-Time Dashboard Reporting Solution

Using a JDBC connector, Style Intelligence has the potential to access almost any database. Key examples include: XML, Excel, OLAP cubes, PeopleSoft, Oracle, Google, salesforce, and many more. Out of the box, so to speak (There is no box; Style Intelligence is 100% Web-based for anywhere, anytime access), data access is real-time.

Style Intelligence uses techniques such as caching, materialized views, and pre-aggregation in order to make access to even the largest of data sets manageable in real-time.

HTML5 Integration

Originally we developed our application to utilize Flash on the client device, but as security concerns and non-support from Apple became increasingly problematic, we have moved to HTML5 on all client devices. We have been able to reproduce the same desktop app grade of interactivity and look and feel. This improvement applies to developer tools as well as end-users.

Interactive Visual Reports

Style Intelligence offers users a dashboard reporting solution that makes data interactive, vibrant, and understandable. Through a drag-and-drop interface, these reports are easy to make. With components such as charts, sliders, and gauges, these reports are easy to use.

Dashboard reports can be zoomed, filtered, conditioned, etc. to provide unique views of data. More information leads to better decision making. When a business is making the right decisions, they are going to benefit greatly.

Consumer Friendly BI

One of the most unique qualities of Style Intelligence is how easy it is to use. As mentioned above, development of and interaction with these tools is easy. This is because the interface is specifically designed to be scalable.

Complex coding can be used to achieve results if the user is tech-savvy. If the user is a standard business user, however, the GUI is designed in such a way that complex queries can be performed through dragging and dropping data blocks onto a worksheet. We employ this simple method to mashup disparate data sources and perform multidimensional analyses.
