"The Analyzer is an effective, simple-to-learn Internet/intranet tool. With my browser I can find solutions to operational problems by data mining tables from databases. Things I do include finding sales by Territory, by Product, by Division; drilling up to get an overview of operations; and outputting the results in color pie charts and graphs. Quickly I learned how to generate summaries as tables and color graphs to gain insight into company performance. Drilling up is a marvelous tool, and by pointing and clicking on pull-down menus I extract meaning from complex tables. This software can be learned in less than an hour."

"One of my goals is to find the key information within a database table or a report. Data mining with the Blue Data Analyzer makes this not only possible but also simple. Also it is very easy to learn. By pointing and clicking on my browser I can carry out an analysis and prepare a summary table in color graphic form. This is a great way to determine what is significant in the data. The Analyzer is well suited to carrying out ad hoc analysis too. By using the Extractor first, I am also able to analyze tables taken from company reports."

"When dealing with reports - whether from Windows 95/NT system, UNIX systems, or EBCDIC reports generated on an IBM machines -- the Extractor is simple yet effective. It is easy to install and takes up minimal system resources. When I get the output as a dBase III table, I can use any tool to process it, including the Analyzer from Blue Data or Excel.. With the Analyzer, I now have in essence a Data Mart and I can easily create operational summaries such as sales by region, by product, by salesperson, etc. All I have to do to control the Analyzer is to point and click on a pull-down menu. Nothing could be easier.."
