Enterprise Spreadsheets:

Benefits at a glance

Consistent Data for The Enterprise

The data contained in Enterprise Spreadsheets is linked to a single, central data storage server. All data inputs are centrally managed and automatically updated in all Enterprise Spreadsheets containing a reference to the data being entered.

Data Gathering and Reporting simultaneously in Excel and in the Web

Enterprise Spreadsheets are available both in Microsoft Excel and as a Web application. So there is no need to develop separate Web solutions if you want people to view or update data online in the web browser. Data that is modified in Excel is immediately visible in the web application and vice versa. Using industry standard user authentication, the enterprise spreadsheet can be securely accessed from anywhere via an organizations intranet, or worldwide the internet.

Automatic Consolidation of Spreadsheet Data

Enterprise Spreadsheets are based on one company-wide data model. Therefore, other than with single user spreadsheets, all data which multiple users contribute regarding different projects, cost centers, sales regions or subsidiaries can now be consolidated automatically to sub-totals and company totals.

Spreadsheet Compliance & Process Control.

Enterprise Spreadsheets contain internal mechanisms which can be used to validate inputs as well as the calculations resulting from these inputs which contribute to regulatory compliance (SOX Compliance). In addition to defining central workflow processes, Enterprise Spreadsheets can be used to easily and quickly implement these processes.

Business Intelligence & Corporate Planning

Enterprise Spreadsheets are an ideal tool to address Business Intelligence data analysis needs. The central data server is fully compatible with MOLAP principles and offers real-time consolidation and advanced functions to address both top-down and bottom-up business planning. 

Ad hoc development of business applications

With Enterprise Spreadsheets, professional Intranet and Internet applications can be developed within a short time frame, and you do not need any programming skills.
