Jedox…From Spreadsheets to Enterprise Performance Management

An integrated and flexible approach to consolidate, plan and forecast

Jedox Integrator – Integrate and cleanse your data

Merge all of your disparate data into a single source of truth and boost quality with the powerful and flexible Jedox Integrator.

The Jedox integration tool allows the user to gather info from various source systems like your financial accounting, ERP and CRM systems, any cloud solutions, or even simple Excel or text files, and integrate them to make them comparable for reporting and analysis, as well as your budgeting forecasting needs.

Powerful in-memory OLAP database

Storing your integrated data within In-Memory database (OLAP) provides powerful aggregation and allocation functionality in addition to highly flexible modeling options.

This allows for the representation and modelling of any business logic. Top-down, bottom-up or driver based budgeting and modelling, and even AI-supported planning, are easy with the Jedox OLAP database.

ExcelPLUS

While Excel is still the most well-known analytics, planning and reporting software and offers great flexibility and ease of use, it has limited scalability, automation, security and control.

Using Jedox and its Integrator and OLAP database to drive your spreadsheets, you can enhance your budgeting, planning and forecasting solution with controlled access, workflows and seamless data integration. This functionality can help you remove many of the risks and issues inherent in Excel based solutions.
