empowering the business user

With Smart Dashboards and the ability to simply "drag and drop" pivot tables and other reports into place, Birst makes it easy for business managers to explore data on their own, improving business results and reducing the reporting burden on the IT department.

Smart Dashboards make it easy for business users to explore results, identify trends, and pinpoint areas requiring attention.

Smart Dashboards provide critical reports to business users that are updated automatically whenever the underlying data is updated.

See an interesting trend? To find out the trend drivers, just click on the report to get more detail or to "slice and dice" the data to answer your questions. Follow your hunches all the way to the underlying data, for the most detailed view.

Want to know information by a certain region, factory, sales team, or product line? Just click on the easy filters and sorting buttons to update your reports, so that you can view only the information that you want to see. And get it all on your own, without having to wait for someone else to run reports for you.

"Drag and Drop" Pivot Tables make table creation a snap.

Tables have never been easier to create. Just click on the data that you want to see in your table and drag it into place. Want to know sales results by region for the US only, for 2008? Just drop the data into place and have Birst do the work for you.

Want to know which manufacturing sites have been consistently beating their production quality measures, year over year? Just identify which sites you want and the data drops in automatically.

Drag and drop pivot tables can quickly show you critical information from across multiple data sources (CRM ERP, and accounting, for example). No matter how large the underlying data source or how diverse the sources, you can make a pivot table with it in just a few clicks.
