BI for SaaS

BI Built for SaaS Providers

If you’re a software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider you’ll know that good looking reports and dashboards can help sell your service, make your company more competitive and even have been used to generate additional revenue. If you’ve tried to build this stuff yourself, you’ll also know that it can take a lot of effort.

"New prospects see the dashboards, the drag-and-drop ad hoc query, and aesthetics, and say: ‘Wow. We didn’t know you guys could do this.’ And it’s getting us new business – lots of it.”

—Bruce S. Belvin, Monolith Software Solutions, Inc.

That’s why so many SaaS providers turn to Jaspersoft, creator of the first multi-tenant SaaS-enabling BI platform. This easy-to-integrate BI suite lets your development team quickly and easily add pixel-perfect reports, drag-and-drop queries and reports, and dashboards complete with alerts and high-powered analytics to your solution. Jaspersoft BI adds value—but not complexity—to your product offering.

What Makes Jaspersoft Best for SaaS Providers?

Jaspersoft’s BI suite provides end-to-end BI capabilities that can be quickly, easily and cost effectively integrated into any SaaS offering to deliver great looking reports and dashboards to end users.

End-to-End BI Suite

The Jaspersoft BI suite provides end-to-end BI capabilities like reporting, dashboarding, ad hoc query and analysis and ETL based on a highly scalable, web standards-based, lightweight platform. Features of the platform include:

• Lightweight and high-performance 100% pure Java architecture fully leverages modern multi-core and 64-bit hardware
• Optimized in-memory data caching with options to push-down processing to underlying relational DBMS
• Scalable relational OLAP data analysis leverages aggregate tables and the power of the RDBMS
• Built-in report virtualization allows reports of any size, limited only by available storage hardware

Flexible

The Jaspersoft BI suite offers the flexibility to deploy in a full multi-tenant SaaS environment. Multi-tenancy features include:

• Multi-tenant authentication / single sign-on
• Multi-tenant metadata and content repository architecture
• Multi-tenant administration plus row- and column-level data security

The architectural flexibility of the suite means that all BI capabilities can be easily integrated thanks to straightforward, extensible Java or Web Services APIs and process flow features. With the Jaspersoft UI Framework, the user interface can easily be customized using simple markup in CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) and each tenant in a multi-tenant deployment can have a different look and feel. All customizations made in CSS automatically carry forward as you upgrade your Jaspersoft deployment.

Affordable

With Jaspersoft, you’re making your SaaS solution more appealing and delivering more value to customers, but also keeping costs down, thanks to flexible licensing that lets you pay just for what you need to include, without the complication of per-seat licensing costs.

Once you’ve determined which advanced features you want to add—report server, analysis, dashboarding andmore—and decided on a support model, it’s easy to set up licensing that lets you pay as you go, with no per-seat licensing roadblocks. Then simply expand your solution’s BI capabilities as market needs dictate, without undue up-front investments.
