3. How has Databeacon utilized smart client technology in its Web Reporting and Data Analysis software?

Databeacon Inc. is at the forefront of this exciting new technology, and its flagship product families, Databeacon Smart Client and Databeacon Open Client, are setting the standard in Web Reporting and Data Analysis solutions for more than 1,100 customers in 27 countries around the world. Databeacon utilizes Java-based smart client technology in its Open Client Product family (formerly Databeacon Collaboration Edition) and Microsoft’s .NET Framework in its Smart Client Product family.

Databeacon has embraced smart client technology to offer an innovative and alternative approach to thin client reporting and analysis over the Web. Instead of a client/server or “thin client” method of going back and forth to a server each time an operational manager needs a new view of data, Databeacon performs a one-time delivery of Web reports, data and analysis software to an operational manager’s personal computer. The PC does the processing, freeing the server to handle other applications, or thousands of other requests from other operational managers. With today's ubiquitous availability to Internet bandwidth, Databeacon’s smart client approach allows organizations to quickly access enterprise data and get insight out to thousands of users from a low-cost Web server.
