MicroStrategy Office™ Benefits
MicroStrategy Office Brings Business Intelligence to the Whole Enterprise
With MicroStrategy Office, for the first time, business people can access all of their critical data directly through Microsoft Office with ease. MicroStrategy Office leverages the MicroStrategy industrial-strength platform to provide these Office users with centrally manageable and iron-clad security, scalability, and integration while maintaining a direct link back to the underlying data and metadata – thereby providing business people with a simple transparent window into all of their data, and a single version of the truth.
Create Customized Report Books, Presentations and Documents
Users create analytically rich, easily customized business deliverables using MicroStrategy Office. MicroStrategy Office leverages the unlimited data scalability of the MicroStrategy platform, ensuring that business deliverables are comprehensive and analytically rich. Users can run any number of MicroStrategy reports, from any number of enterprise databases. MicroStrategy Office uses MicroStrategy's advanced prompting engine. Users can easily customize the structure and content of reports by simply answering prompts.
Use Reports Outside The Office
Whether part of a comprehensive report book, customer presentation, business document, or simply a single report, MicroStrategy Office delivers a convenient environment for portable data and offline analysis. Business users can quickly customize documents before taking reports on the road to customer sites and work freely with the data offline. Once back online, MicroStrategy Office's one-click refresh lets business users quickly update all data while retaining all formatting, modeling and analysis.
Securely Share Reporting with other
Office Users
MicroStrategy Office documents leverage the comprehensive security
architecture of the MicroStrategy BI Platform. Access to the BI
data is completely secure for each authorized user, who can have
a single-sign-on. This means a document such as an email or presentation
without data can be shared with many business users. Once the business
users connect and are authorized as a valid user of the MicroStrategy
BI application, they can refresh the presentation with one click.
Each business user will receive only his or her personalized and
applicable data and reports.
Easy Administration as Part of the MicroStrategy Platform
All MicroStrategy Office users are managed with a single powerful and encrypted central metadata. Consequently, reports run in MicroStrategy Office fully leverage the centrally automated platform administration in a MicroStrategy project, enabling lightning-fast responses and optimized object management, at any scale.
Quick and Easy Integration with Existing Applications of Microsoft Office
Business Users who have created Excel workbooks for analysis, including those with VBA scripting and Macro processing, will certainly want to reuse them. MicroStrategy Office was designed to preserve all the work and effort, while dramatically simplifying the data source access.
