When it comes to reliable and accurate reporting services, we highly recommend TIBCO Jaspersoft for your business, big or small. Regardless of your industry, having a clear view of the various facets of your business is crucial for growth. With Jaspersoft at the head of your Business Intelligence (BI) initiative, that’s precisely what you get.
Though we could go on and on about why we like Jaspersoft, we’ll keep it brief. Here are our top five reasons to consider leveraging Jaspersoft as your primary reporting software.
1) Flexibility
Typical legacy systems keep most organizations in the dark, and underutilized data can spell out the end of upward growth for your business. The symptoms most companies encounter are limited to or a lack of connectivity between their data and deployment options, which are often nearly nonexistent. Additionally, old APIs and shattered upgrade paths leave them stuck in a place where innovation is just not possible.
With a highly flexible architecture that matches your needs, Jaspersoft is a perfect solution for rigid BI environments. Jaspersoft can easily connect to any of your data sources, and regardless of your environment, deployment is straightforward. Using a RESTful API, you can build stronger, more stable applications that integrate seamlessly into your company’s modern framework. And the cherry on top is that Jaspersoft is customizable; the Jaspersoft Report Server can be extended to any data source. From MySQL to Oracle, Informix to SQL Server, PostgreSQL to MongoDB – whatever you’re company uses, Jaspersoft connects to it.
2) Affordability
With most reporting software — and enterprise software in general — the cost is based on the number of users and the associated licensing fees. Even if you only have ten users, you’re still paying a pretty penny for one of their licenses. That doesn’t even begin to account for the amount of money you’ll spend on maintenance, support, upgrades, and other expenses. By the time you’ve developed a single actionable item, you’ve already paid a lot.
Keeping the user’s budget in mind, the cost of Jaspersoft doesn’t depend on the number of users. Instead, the required computer power or CPU cores determine the price, and once that’s done, there are no further upgrade charges. Your system will stay up-to-date and tuned for as long as you’d like.
3) Easy Migration Path
Introducing a reporting platform can be a daunting task. The typical migration path of data and information can not only increase costs but also slow down productivity in several ways. CPU usage could be running way up, your employees could be waiting on information, and the organization as a whole may slow down when migration takes too long. Additionally, some providers may even require you to install more hardware, which can slow down the process.
Thankfully, migrating data, reports, users, and customer information is a breeze with Jaspersoft. The straightforward pathway from your legacy support server to your new Jaspersoft reporting system is designed to significantly reduce downtime and costs. In some cases, using the Jaspersoft migration path, businesses have seen a reduction of up to 40 percent in CPU usage and saved money on hardware, infrastructure, and downtime. With Jaspersoft, the migration path is as simple and cost-effective.
4) Accurate Reporting
Having genuine business intelligence and insight is only helpful if the reports are based on clean data and information. For many organizations that rely on legacy systems, their data is riddled with duplicates, islands of automation, and a total disconnect between their older applications. When the environment looks like this, the reports they get will typically be inaccurate, and their business insights will have little value in the marketplace.
In Jaspersoft, making better decisions has never been easier (or faster). By connecting to all your applications, servers, and business processes, Jaspersoft provides your users with a 360-degree view of your organization, offering valuable insights to inform better business decisions. With accurate, overarching reports, there’s more room to grow and improve your company.
5) Great Features
Perhaps your legacy reporting system is holding you back, but the amount of information and other features you like about it are aspects you can’t afford to sacrifice. There are many great features of your current system, including print-ready reports, interactive HTML5 charts, easy and diverse export options, and mobile readiness, among others. Transitioning to a new reporting system may risk losing the conveniences of your current system.
One of the best parts about Jaspersoft is that you won’t have to make any sacrifices when it comes to your favorite features of your current system. Not only does Jaspersoft offer everything mentioned above, but it also comes with a range of additional features and add-ons. Self-service reporting, multi-tenant support, advanced JavaScript embedding, data-agnostic architecture, and more. In the end, you’ll gain far more than you’ll lose by moving your business reporting to Jaspersoft.
