MicroStrategy 8 is reporting
at its finest. With an outstanding/unique focus on reporting,
it offers an effortless convergence of reporting and analysis
not available in other business intelligence pro-ducts. Our
users will be able to see exactly how their reports look as
they build them, without having to go into a separate design
mode. As a result, we envision faster report writing production.
