Jedox Enterprise Spreadsheets Partner
Alta Via Consulting is proud to join the partner ranks of Jedox Enterprise Spreadsheets. Jedox offers a multi-user solution to the common spreadsheet chaos. The ease with which spreadsheets are typically duplicated, changed and distributed by e-mail creates serious problems and results in redundant and out-of-date business information. The principle behind Enterprise Spreadsheets is a powerful multi-dimensional OLAP database enabling central data consistency in an organization’s spreadsheets.
Jedox is a leading suppliers of open source Business Intelligence and corporate performance management solutions. Their core product, PALO, accommodates a range of BI requirements such as planning, reporting and analysis. This allows BI processes to be performed in a web browser or Microsoft Excel. More than 500 organizations have implemented Jedox solutions. Alta Via Consulting is excited to bring this breakthrough product to our markets across the globe. Clients will benefit from a BI solution that leverages their existing Excel skills in report writing and manipulating and entering data.
Updated ! A new round of Jedox/PALO Training Sessions
Alta Via Consulting will begin to offer a new round of U.S. training sessions in May 2010 for beginners and advanced Palo users. All sessions operate with a hands-on approach; therefore, it is necessary to supply your own laptop.
The Introductory course is designed for participants without any prior experience or special knowledge about OLAP; however, some user knowledge of working with Microsoft Excel is desirable. The Advanced course offers existing PALO users a more in-depth experience of PALO opertions and application techniques. For training session details visit our News & Events page.
