Business Intelligence Network - The Vision for BI and Beyond

LiveWire Mobile needed a way of managing the royalty stream for end-user downloads, measuring performance and the end-user experience, and analyzing trends quickly.

After evaluating several open source BI options along with proprietary solutions, LiveWire Mobile narrowed its choices - and then selected Business Objects technology.

BusinessObjects Edge gives LiveWire Mobile access to enterprise BI functionality - including Crystal Reports, BusinessObjects Web Intelligence®, Xcelsius®, and other key Business Objects offerings - at midmarket prices. For ad hoc query, LiveWire Mobile uses Web Intelligence. That was one of the big standouts for Business Objects - not only did it include ad hoc query like a lot of the products do, but Business Objects really hit it out of the park. It definitely was the best presentation for ad hoc query, both in creating the query and also in looking at the report through Crystal.
