Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Actuate iServer v8 provides a platform for developing and deploying reporting applications in support of analytic and enterprise reporting. The product offers comprehensive application development capabilities with strength in report development and dissemination, layout and formatting, security and administration, internationalization, and Web services. Product weaknesses include limited analytic functionality with basic OLAP and little or no predictive analytics or business process capabilities. Actuate's e.Spreadsheet product for integrating business intelligence (BI) reporting with Microsoft Excel provides a clear differentiator. Overall, Actuate is a strong performer in both enterprise and analytic reporting with a greater emphasis on enterprise reporting.
