INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana – February 22, 2005 – Theoris, Inc. today announced the general availability of its next-generation Theoris Vision Software™, effective March 1, 2005. Acknowledged as the leader in next generation business intelligence software, Theoris Vision Software offers out-of-the box connectivity to:

  • Enterprise applications such as Siebel, SAP, Oracle, Great Plains and PeopleSoft.

  • Relational database platforms such as IBM, Oracle, SQL Server and Teradata. “Performance dashboards blend the attributes of reporting and analysis to create a dynamic or “drillable” report that meets the needs of 80 percent of workforces,” said Wayne Eckerson of TDWI.

New Features Improve Access to Trusted Data

Theoris Vision Software now provides even greater capabilities that enable organizations to deliver the power of business analytics to all business users inside and outside the organization in a way that makes sense to them.

Expanded capabilities include:

  • Streamlined third-party portal integration allows organizations to deliver extended dashboard capabilities and relevant business metrics through their existing enterprise portal infrastructure
