Exago, a longstanding player in the self-service embedded BI space, has announced radical new user experience enhancements as part of its most recent release of Exago BI. Version 21.1 features sweeping updates to its ExpressView designer, Advanced Report designer, and Dashboard designer, culminating in a streamlined look and even more intuitive experience for SaaS self-service BI users.
“For fifteen years, SaaS providers across a wide variety of industries have embedded Exago BI to enhance their products with analytics,” says Exago co-founder and CEO Mike Brody, “We know that the success of our clients depends, in large part, on how easy and accessible they make data for their clients, many of whom are non-technical users. We are continually looking for new ways to lower barriers to entry into analytics, and Version 21.1 is a huge step toward that goal.”
Carefully designed to accelerate user training and adoption, the UI changes to 21.1 have already begun to garner positive feedback. “Prospective buyers and a select group of clients have been using the beta version and they are loving the new, cleaner interface,” says Exago COO Mark Selinger.
New Features
Redesigned ExpressView Layout. ExpressView, Exago BI’s drag-and-drop report design studio, is optimized for clean data presentation and consumption.
Groups now appear to the left of the data rows for easy viewing.
Users can perform common data manipulations without writing formulas.
Enhanced Advanced Report UX. Advanced Reports, Exago BI’s pixel-perfect report design studio, no longer opens with a wizard. Now, users enjoy a streamlined canvas and the freedom to dive into the report-building process at any point.
This version includes more than a dozen interaction updates, including a toolbar that puts the most common controls only a click away, highly discoverable row and column menus, and a flexible report-saving workflow.
The Interactive Report viewer, which allows users to make custom changes to preexisting Advanced Reports, has also been given a fresh look.
Dashboard Data Refresh. Users may now choose when to refresh their data during the dashboard design process, avoiding unnecessary data processing and improving overall performance.
Other. Version 21.1 additionally features several ancillary enhancements, most notably the addition of radar and stacked area charts, improved filtering performance, and added configurability for report storage management.
