Cyon Research's 2009 Survey of Engineering Software Users Available to Clients Using Tableau Data Visualization Applications including Free Tableau Reader
SEATTLE, Aug. 24 /PRNewswire/ --Tableau Software (http://www.tableausoftware.com), the global leader in data visualization and rapid-fire business intelligence software (http://www.tableausoftware.com/business-intelligence-software), today announced that Cyon Research has standardized on Tableau's interactive data visualization software for delivering research to its clients in an explorable form. Cyon Research will be providing interactive data visualizations, reports and dashboards to clients of its research, including just released "2009 Survey of Engineering Software Users" by delivering custom workbooks designed for access with Tableau's free Tableau Reader (http://www.tableausoftware.com/reader). Cyon Research (http://www.cyonresearch.com) provides research, analysis and consulting for engineering technology markets and recently published its survey on buying behavior for users of CAD, CAE, PDM, PLM, and BIM software.
"Our survey provides an unusually deep look into the buying behavior and activity among users of engineering software. In the past, our customers were limited by our delivery mechanisms--we delivered a detailed PDF report with 50+ figures, but that only touched the surface of the data," said Brad Holtz, president and CEO of Cyon Research. "We also engaged in customized consultations, using other business intelligence tools, but that is a much more costly and time intensive procedure. Today, we can release our research to our customers in a third way - through a carefully designed set of Tableau Software Packaged Workbooks. This allows our clients to control how the data is sliced and diced to get at exactly the results that are relevant to their area of interest." Holtz continued, "What is interesting is how easy it is for our clients to dive into the data exploration. When we talk with our clients, it's about the data - they don't need to be told how to use Tableau."
"Previously, there was no easy way for Cyon Research to provide its clients with interactive, easy ways to ask questions of the Cyon Research survey data," said ElissaFink (http://www.tableausoftware.com/about/leadership#ef) , Tableau's VP Marketing. "Now with Tableau, they can. They're getting far better results at a fraction of the cost and time of typical reporting tools. And Cyon Research clients who choose to upgrade to Tableau's other business intelligence and data visualization products can instantly gain more data access and exploration capabilities."
