Cyberscience has worked with Baan resellers and customers to create an easy to use, functionally rich, cost effective reporting solution for Baan. This solution is a comprehensive package including reporting tools, pre-written reports, integration services, training, support and consultancy by Baan experts. It includes:

• Enterprise Cyberquery (eCQ)
  Cyberquery is unique in the reporting arena. It is a single product that can meet the needs of the entire spectrum of users. By focusing in equal measure on ease of use, speed of use and depth of functionality, eCQ provides both ad-hoc and production reporting for everyone from occasional users to senior managers; from accountants to data analysis professionals. The benefits of using a single tool, in terms of reduced integration, training and support costs, are tremendous.
   
• A Data Dictionary tailored for Baan
  The Data Dictionary adds value to your Baan database by making it far more accessible to end users. By defining meaningful names and relationships for the database structure, and by hiding details of the database that are irrelevant to end users, the Dictionary dramatically simplifies the underlying data. This flattens the learning curve, widening the availability of reporting across the enterprise. The Data Dictionary also transforms the complex Baan data types, so users work with understandable information.
   
• Alternate viewpoints on the database
  Different groups of people have different requirements from a database, use different areas of it, and even use different terminology to describe the same concepts. By providing alternate viewpoints on the database for these different groups, eCQ uses the language of each group, and presents the information that is relevant to them.
   
• A comprehensive package of pre-written reports
  These reports cover a broad spectrum of reporting needs, from regular production reports through to starting points for ad-hoc queries. Not only are these reports extremely useful in themselves, but they provide a portal into eCQ itself for producing new reports - it is always easier to modify something that already exists than to start from scratch. In addition, the eCQ Launchpad web deployment system makes finding and modifying reports a breeze.
   
• Proactive information deployment
  By pre-installing our Baan reports into the eCQ Launchpad, we ensure that everyone can benefit from Cyberquery from day one. Not only does the Launchpad make it trivial to search and browse the published reports, but our Subscriptions system means that users and senior managers with nothing more than a web browser and an email client - and no training - can have reports delivered direct to their desktop, completely under their own control. This transforms your Baan reporting environment from a passive information source to a proactive information deployment center.
   
• Baan-specific training and consultancy
  Our educators and consultants are experts in Cyberscience technology, Baan and many other applications and databases. They know the strengths of each, and how they can be integrated to provide a unified system. They speak the language of Baan users, and understand their needs.

Enterprise Cyberquery is ideally suited to the Baan environment. It uses a high-performance interface to the underlying Baan database - no ODBC, no middleware. It can query multiple databases of different types simultaneously, enabling it to integrate information from other systems with Baan. It can run on character terminals, under Windows and on the web, enabling its use on many different platforms and client infrastructures.

Baan users have made a large investment in their IT systems. eCQ is the technology to make full use of the information that those systems contain, adding flexibility and increased functionality that dramatically increases the value of an organization's investment in Baan.

In our opinion, eCQ is the best ad-hoc query, business intelligence and production reporting solution for Baan bar none. Strong claim? Let us prove it! Contact us today for more information.
