If you haven’t heard of iDashboards, you’ve probably seen their dashboards at many other applications.
Now iDashboards has another Olympic gift for you: The Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics Real Time Updates
Mouse over your home country, and you can see the entire stats of medal counts and the names of the medalists. Historical data for Torino 2006 are also available.
Yes, Canada has finally won a Gold medal on their home soil on their 3rd Olympics. (1976 Summer and 1988 Winter were the other two)
iDashboards is a leader and innovator in the field of enterprise dashboard software as well as one of the fastest growing companies in business intelligence. In addition, iDashboards has been awarded several patents in the space of data visualization for dashboards.
Gone are the days of fancy charts and graphs with static data. Dynamic data visualization is where it’s at these days.
Here are several reasons why I liked iDashboards, just to name a few:
- Flash based (not Microsoft Silverlight) and browser independent (i.e. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, etc.)
- Platform independence (i.e. Windows or Linux servers)
- Data retrieval from multiple databases – which is important since it’s pulling data from several venues
- Seamless reporting features with Microsoft Excel for those who still want the classic reporting. Remember, the CFO signs the checks!
