Overview
PageUp's new Enhanced Reporting will have the following advantages:
- All reporting will be offered on single platform which means data is consistent and accurate across Analytics and ad-hoc Reporting
- No longer limited to dataviews - you can report on a much broader cross-section of data points
- Visualisations (e.g Pie, Column Bar graphs) will be supported for all new Reports
- Improved user experience when it comes to filtering, grouping, and calculated (custom) columns
- Improved performance - the new BI Platform is backed by an Analytics-centric Data Warehouse
- We are looking to provide all the functionality that is currently offered by our existing Reporting Module but in our new BI Platform - the same platform that we use to host Enhanced Analytics (dashboards).
Note: Enhanced Reporting is not available in the UAT environment.
