Column5 Consulting Releases Update to iPad App

June 21, 2011 - PRLog -- Column5 Consulting announced the release of an upgrade to its Business Analytics Toolkit, a free iPad app available for download from Apple’s App Store.

This app is a user-friendly, one- stop reference filled with key information about SAP® BusinessObjects™ enterprise performance management (EPM), business intelligence (BI) and enterprise information management (EIM) solutions.  It helps users learn how to leverage the SAP solutions to realize true organizational effectiveness and return on investment.  The app provides solution overviews, product demos, technical briefs, and real-life examples of how customers are using SAP BusinessObjects analytic applications.

The update features a “brochure-builder,” which allows users to e-mail informational documents themselves as PDF files, so they you can review them offline at a later time.  It also contains nine new demos on SAP products and related utilities, and application accelerators that extend the functionality of SAP applications and make them easier to implement, maintain and use.  Examples of new demos include those highlighting functionality, such as planning and forecasting, extended analytics, integration with Microsoft SharePoint, and 3-D profitability, as well as a sales and operations planning starter kit.

“Many users are excited by the SAP BusinessObjects analytic applications – especially with the availability of SAP BusinessObjects BI 4.0 and SAP BusinessObjects EPM 10.0, recently announced at the SAPPHIRE® NOW conference,” said David Den Boer, managing principal, Column5 Consulting.  “Column5 provides its Business Analytics Toolkit as a service to users who want to further understand exactly how SAP’s  ground breaking solutions can  transform their business. The app is continually updated, so users automatically get fresh content and the latest information in a convenient format.”
