"With the Jaspersoft Business Intelligence Suite, we connect people and data in order for them to get their jobs done. The decision to select Jaspersoft was straightforward; we needed a solution that would deliver business intelligence to all of our users. That is what Jaspersoft does for us." – Amy Stephen, Data & Internet Specialist, University of Nebraska

JasperServer for Administrators.  Schedule - Distribute - Manage - Tune

Ensure that decision makers and stakeholders get to the right information, when they need it, and in the format they prefer. JasperServer includes several built-in administration functions:

  • Report scheduling and distribution – including calendar based recurrences, and historical report versioning
  • Export reports to a range of formats such as PDF, HTML, Excel, Flash, Word, RTF, and ODS/ODT
  • Manage users, roles, and security through a central repository
  • Search-based report repository simplifies finding the report they want
  • Built in auditing to determine who ran which report when for compliance or performance optimization analysis (available in the Enterprise Edition package)

Reports, Ad Hoc Queries, Dashboards And Mash-Ups

Powered by interactive web-based AJAX and dynamic HTML technologies, JasperServer enables end-users to build reports and ad hoc queries without reliance on IT. Through a web browser, they can work with a business view of data that requires no understanding of database concepts or query languages. Simply drag and drop business view items into the query builder, add filters and parameter prompts, and the query is complete. Then use a drag-and-drop report designer to layout and format the report. Reports can be saved, shared, scheduled, and distributed via JasperServer’s repository manager application.

Ad Hoc Report Designer

The same technologies permit easy, drag-and-drop dashboarding. Users can build and deploy dashboards that monitor key performance indicators and metrics in near real time. Also, any URL-addressable content can be included in dashboards, enabling mash-ups across internal and external business applications.

BI Dashboard

Built-in charting provides an at-a-glance understanding of trends and anomalies. With customizable chart themes, users have fine-grained control over chart look and feel. They can also apply chart themes to existing reports and dashboards.

iReport is the report design tool for administrators and report developers to enable total control over the contents as well as the look and feel of every report.  Sophisticated pixel-perfect, print-ready, complex reporting is a problem of the past with iReport. 

Explore your data with Integrated In-Memory Analysis

JasperServer integrates in-memory analysis through the same AJAX and dynamic HTML powered user interface as the Ad Hoc report designer. JasperServer’s integrated in-memory analysis capability sets business users free to explore their multi-dimensional data – pivoting, drilling, slicing, sorting, and filtering – without requiring the overhead of creating and maintaining data warehouses and traditional MDX-based OLAP technology.  In addition, integrated in-memory analysis can be configured to leverage either high-performance in-memory processing, or highly-scalable DBMS processing of analysis operations.

Multi-Tenancy (SaaS-Enablement)

JasperServer is multi-tenant enabled, which means you can use a single installation of JasperServer and support many different tenants or organizations for that same instance. Each organizations (or “tenants”) can share the same server – completely protected from each other.  This means JasperServer is the ideal business intelligence product to integrate into on-demand applications deployed using a SaaS-model, both within enterprises and to external customers.  The multi-tenant option is available in the Enterprise Edition package.

Instant Portal Access

JasperServer support for the JSR 168 portlet specification means it’s easy to extend reporting tools and business intelligence capabilities to anyone in your organization through an enterprise portal. With JasperServer, authorized users can view, request, and update reports, charts and crosstabs within the portal. JasperServer includes Liferay, the leading open source portal server.
