With Escendo Analytics, users can choose from a long list of industry-standard client applications including most Business Intelligence tools. The combination of Escendo Analytics and Oracle means that you have access to all of your data, not just what's stored in a cube. It means that one set of information can solve your full range of decision support needs, from your most sophisticated analyses through standard reporting. And it means that it all can be delivered using any tool, including BI tools, reporting tools, spreadsheets, and even via simple SQL, all from one database.

  In-Database Means Scalable

  Making sure that you have the right data - and all of the data - you need is critical to making accurate decisions. With Oracle and Analytics, you can define and access all your Oracle data in the way that makes the most sense for your business and without the frustrating size constraints of traditional OLAP servers. And, once the data is in Oracle, it is managed entirely within Oracle, too, thereby leveraging your organization's skills and investment in Oracle tools and talent. This translates into better decisions at substantially lower cost.
  
  Of course, having access to lots of data is of no use if poor performance prevents timely decisions. Whether addressing query performance, load times, or calculation speed, an in-database solution provides the greatest functionality for ensuring that your data is available when users need it. Escendo Analytics adds an intuitive and powerful way to build calculation models and rules, define data structures, and manage the access of data. Together, Oracle and Escendo Analytics provide the best solution for delivering the right analyses on time, every time.
