We are a small IT company that was looking for a BI tool in order to eliminate the usage of Excel as the reporting tool in our organization. For a company having business users and decision makers in different time zones and different offices, Panorama Necto provided a great solution.
- The Social collaboration built in Necto helped with interactions among business users while viewing a single work board. The work boards are collaborative, dynamic and suggestive. The recommendation engine is the most interesting piece as it suggests relevant work boards based on a user's usage.
- The work boards are a great way to provide the management a clear, concise, one source of truth and progress of business in one snapshot. The drill down capabilities allow the business users to analyze and gain insights. It lets business users spend more time on analyzing data rather than collecting and creating reports.
- The feature to find people and chat with the concerned user right from the report window adds a great value and reduces the pain of emails going back and forth among users.
- Necto should allow support of multiple languages as this has been the major issue we have came across as we have offices in various South American countries.

While working on business intelligence and searching for a newly available tool, I came across Panorama Necto. This is the first business tool I have seen with scope for personalization and providing great visual infographic experience and is user friendly.
With this tool business users can effectively present data and track performance very interactively, while changes are being updated dynamically.
There is also provision for collaborative working where users can share, discuss and edit on a single platform. Some helpful features like realtime notifications, public or private comments, maps and location based services are also made available
- Ease of use
- Visualization
- Dynamic capabilities
- Collaborative
- Multi language support
- Blackberry support
- Mac OS support

- It help builds very intuitive and interactive analytics. It has excellent in memory performance and retursn results with clicks.

- It has excellent social and collaboration capabilities.
- Panorama Necto does not have support for Linux or commodity hardware.
- The big data technology support is very limited.
- I would also appreciate if there was a personal edition that I could install on Windows home edition for my client to access the product.

One of the best self service BI tools in the market
One of the best tools in the market available today. I started getting attached to this tool recently and this never stops amazing me. I can connect to a variety of data sources and quickly analyze my data. The best part of this product is the built-in intelligence system which understands the data and the Meta data while they are being fed to the tool, on the fly. I used this tool to create some test result reports.
- Comes with lot of option to modify and build the smart infographic. Uses innovative pictures and charts to create the dashboards
- Helps you identify why you are succeeding and where you should shift your focus to.
- The maps are amazing and they just don’t act as control points rather you can populate various measures on them making it really efficient to understand the business in geographical info graph
- Need to have good data connectors and efficient approach to handle bigdata somehow.
Panorama helped one of my clients replace a costly BI tool; bring down the licensing costs and make the tool available to more users globally. It has eye catching infographics, an image bank, numerous chart options and functionality for slicing and dicing. It also has an amazing recommendation engine which can give more insights to users.
- The tool is extremely easy to use, you can import data and create the visualizations with a click.
- We were able to build a collaborative business intelligence solution, we replaced clients existing process of predictive analysis and forecasting, and provided a solution based on Necto with a lot ease.
- It is more inclined towards the end-user with easy to use options and is not much of a developer centric tool.
- Gives IT more power to govern and manage the platform with ease, on the other hand it is equally powerful for business users.
- The thing which I was expecting and is not available as of now was a personal edition for installation on Windows home edition that can come handy when practicing and training other users; I hope they plan to provide that to us soon.
- Second thing is the limited support for big data analytics, this again is not very critical at the moment but it is a good to have functionality, and soon once the users are familiar with the basic analysis they will start looking for options like big data analytics etc.
- No support for Linux or commodity hardware.

One of its kin of tool, A sure value for venture
It's simply a great tool to serve all the needs for self-serve data analysis requirements. It is simple to create, share and collaborate. It has all the aspects of a great BI tool bundled in one product. After working on several data visualization tools and BI platforms, it was hard to believe that data can be visualized so easily and so efficiently. The time taken was simply a few minutes. If you have your data organized and cleaned, this tool helps you to analyze your highlights and lowlights of business in just 30 minutes or even less. I loved the way that the entire development was based on smart drag/drop modification of data. The infographics are really amazing and there are enough of these infographics to address various scenario based analytical requirements. Using color encoding on measures and dimension was never so easier and it makes the work boards tell the story of the business. The best part was that it connects to a pool of different data sources and has all necessary data connection driver already embedded. Hence no need to worry about creating customized drivers and connection strings.
A very good tool and a must to watch out how this evolves in next few years.
- Comes with lot of options to modify and build the smart infographic. Uses innovative pictures and charts to create the dashboards
- Creates basic data arrangements easily without waiting for the users to instruct. For an example, given a date field it creates a calendar hierarchy by default.
- Understands the nature of data and the metadata really well. Treats the data on the fly and creates smart visualizations.
- Connects to any data (most backend packages as per industry standards)
- It has smart computing abilities to deliver some of the complex analytical requirements such as what-if analysis, pinpointing the actual issues and side by side comparison of business factors.
- Need more data manipulation and customized data modelling abilities
We mainly used Panorama Necto for self service data discovery for our customer insight team. It helped us reduce dependencies on the reporting team to produce various ad hoc reports and stats for us. We could get all stats ourselves and also slice and dice the data as per need.
- It is very easy to use, one can learn the tool with basic training and with a click you can import data and create the visualizations.
- Eye catching info graphics, image bank, numerous chart options and functionality for slicing and dicing
- Collaboration - share work boards with colleagues, discuss/comments/annotations
- Good Performance
- More community support
- Publishing and scheduling is a bit complicated
- No support for Linux or commodity hardware

Self service BI tool_Nect0
I'm into developing reports using SAP Business Objects. Its been five years that I've been working on reporting. I have used BI, Lumira, and Tableau to generate and visualize data. I have come across Necto which is really a cool tool to visualize data and present it to the business users. It has cool interactive graphs, advanced features like infographics, is easy to use, and has a fast and easy to deploy facility. It offers beautiful work boards to work with. I also found a cool feature - infographics which is very helpful in presenting data to the users. Hierarchies are done automatically. This is a scalable environment to work with and can also visualize data by using your own language. This is an outstanding self service BI tool which has cool features to visualize and present the data with social collaboration. It's easy to connect with different types of databases. I'm currently reviewing a project under POC by comparing both the tools, Lumira and Necto. A few points are it only supports English.

- Fast and easy deployment
- Build or visualize data in your own language.

Empowering BI graphics and socially enabled
I am evaluating different BI tools for our client's finance departments as currently they report most of the things in access without any graphics representation. They want us to evaluate different tools for their current needs of management reporting. As data becomes a power to emerging market leaders, in the same way client requires a tool with business user capabilities.
My focus is to suggest to my client, a BI tool with powerful end user functionality, business language processing and vibrant dashboards to display trending data.

Impressive one but few concerns needs to be adressed
We are performing an assessment for our customer where we are looking for a tool that has great infographics and works better on mobile platforms and provides capabilities so an end-user can develop the reports by himself and is easy to handle in terms of administration. In that activity, we have recently assessed Panorama Necto and it has all such features - except administration wise we are a bit concerned.
- Custom infographics can help in re-defining the term WYSWYG to whichever way you want to see you can develop it.
- Mobile platform support.
- Recommendation engine.
- I believe Panorama Necto is a bit slow in processing.
- Scripting is required in terms of administration while setting up third party authentication.
- There is no knowledge sharing blogs available that ar free of cost.

New Age End to End Infographic BI Suite
We are currently using this powerful infographic tool for showing KPIs and sales figures across different departments. Our organization uses trading dashboards and stock management data is graphically displayed using Panorama Necto. Due to its highly infographic and collaborative capability, Panorama Necto becomes the user's first preference. It is more capable of self service and hence ensures cost reduction and maintenance.
- Highly infographic tool with plenty of options to select from charts or map. Seamless collaboration capability and support for iOS, Android and windows makes it a very powerful new age self service BI tool
- It's exception error handling and conditional notification feature make the tool unique compared to others. This feature is not easily available in any other self service BI tools.
- Impressive performance and reasonable cost makes it 1st choice for any business.
- Self service BI offloads the need to maintain complex data-models and complex reports to answer business question. Users, data analysts are more inclined to creating their own dashboards, the way they want.
- This tool is relatively new to the current competitive BI market. Many organizations or business analyst are not yet aware of it's eye catching features.
- Need more enhancement for predictive analysis.
- Publishing reports as email attachment and mail server configuration is a little complicated process.

An innovation!!
I have been evaluating tools within our organization to be suggested to different clients which are less technical and more business user oriented for fast first hand analytics. I came across one such tool with the name Necto.
I was thrilled with the capabilities of astonishingly easy to build and simplified, modern and in-cell infographics that can be used by just right clicking on the attributes. Another feature that I think stood out in this tool is of it being suggestive which leads to automated analysis and recommendations. I also observed that it uses crowdsourcing to recommend workboards. This tool is also collaborative in the decision making experience wherein one can directly connect with the associates within the enterprise from within the tool.
- Quick reporting without need of technical expertise.
- Quick connection to multiple data sources and data integration.
- Quick Answers.
- Quick collaboration.
- Performance in case of huge datasets needs to be further analysed.
- A good application for basic analysts but more advanced features need to be released by the vendor for power users in coming versions.
- Cost of implementing multiple analytical tools for different sect of users should be considered.
- Technical documentation needs to be evolved with time.

Collaboration capability of Necto BI is amazing
Panorama Necto helped me with creating reports and infographics which was a really helpful when we were making a business decision. The collaborative features are impressive. We tried it without downloading or installing on our computer. The workboard layouts that we build for desktop remain same when we use it from a tablet device. You can use the same dashboard everywhere. The usability is very [easy] for end users.
- Very powerful tool for profitable business decisions. It's recommendation engine has many options of query and analysis reporting.
- You can visually present any complex information from any data source on any device. The system suggests the best analytical reports on relevant information based on user interests.
- One single web interface with no unwanted guests.
- Less online community support.
- Less provision in report distribution among non portal users.

We were evaluating a number of new age business intelligence tools for our customer who is currently using an enterprise reporting tool, which does not support any collaboration. There are hundred of reports in production and lot of confusion within the BI insight team and business users on various KPIs. We wanted a self service data discovery tool which can help businesses to collaborate more effectively. We evaluated Panorama Necto and found it very useful for our purpose. Its social capabilities are simply outstanding. Beside collaboration it also supports rich info graphics, and provides a vast array of analytical functionality.
- Very interactive, easy to learn, lot of charts supported, rich info graphics.
- Very promising social capabilities like click to collaborate features, initiate discussion, search for relevant users and contents.
- Good tutorials and online help.
- Support more database plugins.
- Support more flexibility to query database from dashboards.
- Build community support for developers help.
Our company has a data warehouse and a few OLAP cubes built on top of it. It was first built three years ago and the new features are added to it based on the end user requirements. Now we are looking for the best front-end tools for our business users. The goal is to get the load off the IT team and provide the business users with the tool for self service BI. We have been evaluating a couple of the solutions present on the market and found Necto very innovative with useful features.
- Ability to collaborate with other users by sharing content, starting discussions, subscribing to users, searching for the relevant content.
- Mobile application is available for iOS, Android and Windows RT and users have the same experience on any device. This is great for the executives who travel a lot and are often in the meetings.
- Great visualization capabilities, especially infographics which represent a unique way to easily present the trends in data.
- Needs more support for predictive and forecast analysis.
- Needs more data transformation support
- Does not support multiple languages.
