Datawatch Introduces Monarch™ Version 10 French Edition
World's Leading Report Mining and Analysis Solution Offers Unprecedented Microsoft Excel® Integration, Breakthrough Analytic Power, Enhanced Data Acquisition and Easier Model Building for French Speaking Users
Chelmsford, MA — June 30, 2009 - Datawatch Corporation (NASDAQ-CM: DWCH), a leader in Enterprise Information Management (EIM) and Business Intelligence, today announces the immediate availability of Monarch V10, French language edition. Monarch V10 is the latest upgrade to the company's flagship report mining and analysis solution, and with this upgrade, every major aspect of Monarch has been dramatically improved. Monarch V10 provides new analytic and styling capabilities, enhanced Excel integration, access to new data sources, easier model building and more.
An affordable, programming-free Business Intelligence (BI) solution, Monarch V10 allows users to unlock critical data buried in reports and other business documents without programming, as well as import and combine information from additional data sources, such as PDFs, databases or spreadsheets. Monarch V10 is designed to help users work smarter and faster by giving them the information they need, in the format they want, to make better business decisions.
"With the turbulent global economy, it is more critical than ever that users have the ability to extract maximum value from the information assets that already exist within their organization, and that they be able to easily access the right information in the right format," said John Kitchen, Datawatch senior vice president and CMO. "Monarch V10 French language edition provides our French speaking customers in France, Luxemburg, Belgium, Switzerland and the French-speaking provinces of Canada, an effortless, self-service BI solution that will help them gain insight into operations and customers, better manage costs and empower them with more Excel-based capabilities than ever-all without the cost, exhaustive training and programming associated with traditional BI solutions."
Key Monarch V10 Features:
- Enhanced Excel Integration: Monarch V10 delivers the fastest, easiest Excel-based BI on the market, allowing users to export Monarch table data as Pivot Tables directly in Excel with no additional work required. Users also have the ability to export summary data into separate spreadsheets or workbooks based on simple key value changes. This enables users to save significant time by focusing solely on the data that is relevant to their individual functions, locations or departments.
- Analytics at your Fingertips: New filtering and summary capabilities give users more control and customization capabilities. An entirely new variety of Monarch summary analysis is now also possible, complete with optimized formatting, when exported to Excel. Monarch V10 Professional Edition (Monarch V10 Pro) also features a new Table Verify function, which performs data quality checks and alerts users to data errors.
- Publishing and Exporting with Style: Monarch V10 delivers powerful new report styling capabilities to improve data presentation. Descriptive titles can now be included within the exported Excel and PDF summary analysis. Users can choose from standard colors or select from a custom color palette with up to 64,000 choices for summary coloring, create custom display formats for the new time intervals introduced in Monarch V10 and more.
- Easier Model Building: Monarch V10 will now help define traps for users, making the process of building model templates more intuitive than ever. All users have to do is check off sample lines from a report, and Monarch V10 will generate a trap. Monarch V10 also features color-coded templates to help expedite model building and offers enhancements specifically designed to more effectively handle missing report data.
- New & Improved Data Sources (PRO version ONLY): Monarch V10 Pro enables users to print from any Windows application using the open, Microsoft-developed XPS technology and import the data directly into Monarch. PDF import has been dramatically improved, opening PDFs twice as fast as was previously possible. Monarch V10 Pro also offers brand new data sources-such as Excel 2007 xlsm and Access 2007 accdb files.
