New feature lets Indicee do the uploading
We have received lots of feedback about how easy (and cost effective) it is to get up and running with Indicee compared to traditional BI tools. Why is it so much easier? Because Indicee does not require a direct connection to your data base. Instead, with Indicee you simply upload the reports or data export files from your applications.
Manual uploads work really well for small deployments and make a huge difference in how fast our customers can get up and running. However, once users see the benefit of easy access to information they inevitably want more data and want it updated more frequently. Up until now, the only way to get data into Indicee was to save a report or data file to your computer and then upload the file to Indicee. Uploading a single file once a week is easy, uploading 10 files every day starts to take a lot of time.
Uploading reports – hands free
Indicee users have asked for an auto uploader. We have added it, and more. Indicee (with your permission), can now be set up to grab data files from your computer. Here are some examples of how it works:
- Schedule your reports to a folder. Lots of applications allow you to schedule reports to a folder on your computer. You schedule the reports to run every hour or day and schedule Indicee to grab the reports from that folder and upload them to your data mart
- Schedule your queries. Some customers have set up queries to grab data. You can use a program like Windows scheduler to automatically run the queries and have Indicee grab the data files and upload them to your data mart
- Direct database connection. For more complex BI requirements, it is not always possible to find reports that contain all the data needed to answer your questions. Indicee now has the option of connecting directly to common business applications or running custom SQL queries and then uploading the resulting data
