From the beginning, Informer has been designed to make reporting, visualizing, and analyzing data, regardless of where it's located, easy for users across enterprises of all sizes. Static reports are no longer sufficient and are almost immediately outdated. Referencing curated datasets or real-time queries, Informer provides a rich set of visuals for viewing and interpreting data interactively. Users, regardless of technical expertise, can create visuals or have Informer suggest contextually relevant and insightful visuals automatically through Informer’s Discover feature for further customization.
Users can track and monitor multiple department-specific KPIs on one screen by creating interactive reports with advanced capabilities to sort, group or pivot on data, and experiment with trend analyses, regressions and correlations. Plugins can also incorporate additional custom report types in Informer. Data visualization options become practically unlimited with Informer.
Data exists throughout your organization: on countless desktops, on shared network servers, in multiple databases, and in the cloud. It exists in various formats: structured text files, proprietary spreadsheet documents, records in databases of multiple types, and as streams from calls to a 3rd party API.
The newest version of Informer helps organizations derive actionable insight from these disparate silos by aggregating data to create a single source virtual data hub or web-based information repository. Informer’s Java-based architecture and integrated, intuitive interface is built for fast performance to process and analyze billions of rows of data without sacrificing speed.
Entrinsik has always been and continues to be a customer-driven organization and our customers continue to be our biggest cheerleaders based on hundreds of reviews on 3rd party independent sites.
