CXAIR has been built specifically as a ‘next generation’ business analytics tool. The product utilises the raw power of search technology in order to retrieve and configure data for querying and reporting purposes.
CXAIR allows everybody to engage
with business analytics, not just
analysts. Reporting, ad-hoc analysis
and the creation of dashboards
becomes as easy and as
straightforward as searching the
internet, allowing people to make the
right decisions at the right time.
Search-Powered Business Analytics
Introducing CXAIR
The product has been designed around three core principles:
SPEED, FLEXIBILITY and USABILITY.

A key challenge within modern businesses today is the vast amount of data
contained in multiple (and often unconnected) data stores and systems.
Whether you have implemented a data warehouse or you are trying to join up the
data manually, CXAIR provides an extremely simple and user-friendly method of
bringing data together into a single, coherent search engine that can then be used
to provide consolidated reporting and analysis, all from a single point of access.

A Consolidated View of Your Data

Most people are familiar with search engines like Google and use them to explore
the vast amounts of information available on the internet. CXAIR allows you to
apply the same ‘natural language’ to your queries, returning results with the
impressive speed and simplicity of search engine technology.
CXAIR also provides users with the ability to quickly filter results either by selecting
values on the screen or generating user-friendly range filters. This means that you
can choose and interpret the data you want without having to rely on running
pre-canned reports or SQL queries, eliminating the need for prior training.

CXAIR includes many powerful security features to ensure that information
presented is relevant and safe across the organisation. These include single
sign-on, realm-based security and integration with active directory for
Windows-based implementations. Data contained within CXAIR can be
automatically filtered to restrict access at document, row or column level for
groups or individual users, requiring only minimal configuration.

Unlike many traditional Business Analytics tools, CXAIR does not store any of its
indexed data in a pre- aggregated form. This means that data is either aggregated
dynamically or presented back to the user at transactional level when queries or
reports are generated.
An advantage of storing data at transactional level is that it is always possible to
drill down from a total field, chart or Venn segment into the underlying records.
Ensuring that business users are confident in the data they see returned from a
query or report is critical in making Analytics a key part of their daily processes.

Venn diagrams are an extremely useful way of demonstrating relationships within
data. In CXAIR, users are able to generate and manipulate Venn sets over huge data
sets in an extremely simple and user-friendly interface, providing unparalleled
insight into data relationships through the ability to dynamically segment data
down to any level of detail.
Venn sets are able to display simple record counts, calculations or distinct counts
based on specific business criteria, enabling you to analyse information in many
different ways and identify clusters of data that can then be drilled into at
transactional level for further analysis.

CXAIR has the ability to produce multi-dimensional Crosstabs from your filtered
data. Users can nest multiple fields as rows or columns, select multiple measures
and calculations, apply traffic lighting and field formatting on any data contained
within the search engine, and ultimately produce tables of results in real-time.
Users can drill down from a total to the underlying data and drill back up to the
original Crosstab without any pre-configuration of the data. Unlike pivot table
services in EXCEL or reporting over OLAP data sources, Crosstabs run in real-time
across the actual event-level data and produce results in seconds without the need
to pre-aggregate or perform any pre-configuration.

Every Business Analytics tool has dashboards, but few provide facilities as flexible,
simple and comprehensive as CXAIR. With the ability to position the reporting data
anywhere on-screen in a variety of formats, users can structure and group related
data together to incorporate logos, pictures, images and text as if typing data into
a publishing package.
The User Interface (UI) has been designed to make the process of creating and
saving new dashboards as quick and as easy as possible, with full customisation to
use corporate logos, fonts and colour schemes.

Report
Search-Powered Business Analytics
CXAIR allows you to schedule the distribution of single or multiple reports. These
reports can be sent as either an email attachment or a link accessed from the user’s
web browser. Scheduled reports can be rendered as a PDF document, EXCEL
export or HTML with embedded images and text. Schedules can be setup on any
desired time frame such as daily or weekly.

Report
Search-Powered Business Analytics
Report alerts will trigger a notification to be sent to a person when a particular
event has occurred in a report. Users can configure these notifications to respond
to particular events as desired. Notifications can be received without the user
needing to access the application, providing immediate information.
