About Informer

Entrinsik Informer is a business intelligence tool that is designed for business and IT professionals. Key features include a dashboard, data scheduling and analysis and report generation.

Entrinsik Informer allows users to extract data in real time from relational or multivalue data sources in a single web interface. Users can then create reports and dashboards autonomously. A built-in security framework provides role-based user permissions and access control.

The scheduling feature helps users to create a job and set multiple actions. Users can run jobs manually, set schedule or alerts when specific conditions are met. The solution also comes with a help center, which enables users to access online guides, training videos and downloads, search a knowledge base to find answers to questions and track the status of support tickets.

Informer Rules

No longer spending ages writing reports in Visual Studio based on SQL views. Can leverage old views in Informer and connect in directly to database as well. I've only crashed it once running a rogue query, it is very dependable.

Pros:

Allows us to plug in several different data sources to quickly build and run user friendly reports. Quick formatting and sort options, easy aggregation, fast loading. Supports lots of formats for data export. A real software Swiss Army knife for reporting.

Cons:

The search functionality could be improved a little bit to be more keyword based than literal.

All system data can be collected and therefore summarized and analyzed with Informer! Fantastic!

Pros:

Once a custom report is written, a user can copy and edit the report to suit different needs. You aren't constantly having to start from scratch with building a report. Informer has been a great tool for fundraising for my organization.

Cons:

I would like to see the geographics be a little more at a macro level--down to counties and cities.

Excited for the Version 5 release. Version 4 has been difficult since we migrated to SQL.

The ability to write quick, ad-hoc reports.

Ratings Breakdown

Functionality

Pros:

I like being able to use native SQL to write my queries. One of the most promising things, at the moment, is that Version 5 is close to being released. We are part of the ICE Consortium and ICE support is not that well-versed in the use of Informer. Informer is an easy to use GUI environment reporting tool.

Cons:

Some of the things I like least about Informer are, since our migration from UniData to SQL, we have issues with record duplicates and auto normalization. It would be nice if there was an editor that assisted with the writing of native SQL code or even java scripting.
