Panorama powers Google apps with BI

OK, now it is official, we launched our product this morning and the world can start using it.

While this is just the beta version we are very excited to read and hear the reaction of the millions of users that use Google applications and Docs.

We are proud to say that Google docs now has the most powerful Pivot Table and Pivot chart feature available for any spreadsheet available and in the next couple of months this will be extended to support analysis from within the Google docs environment of many data sources and applications such as Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce, Netsuite, SAP and others.

We are also getting ready to launch our solution for ISVs – PowerApps, a way for any ISV to extend its solution with BI in a SaaS model. Basically if you are an ISV and want to offer your customers a BI solution, you can extend our solution in the Google environment using our (soon to be released) APIs, customize and brand it your own!!

If you want to try out the new release simply log on to your Google Docs account, create a spreadsheet and click “Insert”. Chose Panorama Pivot Tables for Google apps!

Good luck and let us know what you think.

Pivot Tables for Google Spreadsheets!!!

Hello to all my fellow Google-users out there!

My name is Krishna Sharma and I am happy to announce the launch of this online open-forum blog for all Google Spreadsheet users. It was recently announced that Pivot Table functionality has been added to Google Spreadsheets, thus lending significantly more power to an already-attractive product.

With this new launch, we wanted to create an online forum where you, the Google Spreadsheet user, could share your tips, tricks and feedback about the new Pivot Table gadget in Google Spreadsheets. Have you found a neat way to use the pivot table? Running into some problems or dead-ends? Curious to see how others are using the new Pivot Table functionality? Post your questions and/or comments here and watch for a response! Happy Googling!
