What is Longview Analytics?

Longview Analytics builds on the proven technology of inSight, dynaSight, and arcplan and has been continuously refined over many years. Longview enables high-performance reporting and planning systems that provide decision-makers at all levels with real-time, actionable information. This enables intelligent monitoring and proactive management of all business processes. Longview Analytics’ comprehensive approach ensures the integration and analysis of data from ERP systems, OLAP cubes, relational databases, and web services—simultaneously and in real time.

Why Longview Analytics?

Longview Analytics (formerly inSight, dynaSight, and arcplan) is a unique solution that offers a wide range of interfaces to virtually all data sources. As a result, the system does not require its own data storage; reports retrieve information directly from the connected data sources—while also inheriting existing access rights, which enhances security and reduces administrative overhead.

With the help of Longview’s latest analytics technology—Self-Service Analytics—users can not only perform ad hoc queries and self-service analyses from multiple data sources but also easily and flexibly compile custom reports. Thanks to its intuitive interface, the application is so easy to use that user training is unnecessary.

Your advantages when using Longview Analytics

  • Independence from the IT department thanks to an intuitive interface and extended visualization options
  • Access to relevant data in real time and browser-based ad hoc analyses
  • Intuitive and fast report generation
  • Seamless integration with Microsoft Excel
  • Arbitrary transformations of the data on the way from the data source to the report
  • DORA principle (Design Once Run Anywhere) reduces the effort required to adapt to different output media

All these features make Longview Analytics a highly customizable planning and reporting solution that can be easily and precisely adapted to the different requirements of each company. The range of functions and visualization options within the applications created are virtually unlimited, making Longview Analytics one of our customers' most popular software solutions.

Here’s how we develop your custom Longview application in 6 steps

Phase 1: Listening & understanding

We begin with a joint analysis workshop. Here, we work closely with your team: we listen, analyze the specific challenges, and identify hidden opportunities for optimization in your Longview Analytics application.

Phase 2: Planning & concept

In the second step, we develop solution concepts, assess the technical feasibility of the requirements we’ve defined, and create a proof of concept. At the end of this process, you’ll receive a reliable cost estimate that provides you with a clear basis for decision-making.

Phase 3: Technical implementation

Our software experts will begin developing your custom Longview Analytics application. Throughout the process, we’ll work closely with you, maintain constant communication, and ensure transparency. If you’d like, we can involve your team directly in the implementation so that we can build the solution together.

Phase 4: Briefing & handover

Once quality control has been successfully completed, we will launch your software solution. We will then provide user training so that your employees can use the system efficiently right from the start.

Phase 5: Training & education

To ensure you reap long-term benefits, we offer regular training sessions for your team. Tailored to specific roles and requirements, we ensure that everyone involved can fully leverage the application’s potential.

Phase 6: Maintenance & further development

Even after launch, we remain by your side as your partner. We continuously refine your application solution—through ongoing maintenance, updates, new features, process adjustments, or the integration of additional systems. This ensures that your business application always meets your company’s needs perfectly.
