The business climate today is about as challenging as it's ever been.

The opportunities for success are there – but they're fleeting.

You need to make the right decisions, and you need to make them fast.

But too often, you don't have the information you need.

Data is buried in hard-to-use spreadsheets or trapped in complicated systems.

You risk making recommendations

and making decisions based on bad information – or worse, based on your best guess.

But what if you had a powerful, easy-to-use tool that truly illuminated your business?

That consolidated views of key trends and metrics often lost in spreadsheets?

That answered your most pressing business questions at a single glance?

That's the power of Xcelsius software from SAP.

Xcelsius is designed for business professionals like you.

Business leaders who need to make fast, mission-critical decisions.

And make persuasive arguments for taking the right course of action.

Xcelsius illuminates your business by providing consolidated views of key metrics.

All in easy-to-use, at-a-glance dashboards

that let you track key performance indicators,

visualize emerging trends,

and instantly understand the impact of changes to your business.

And amazingly, all without the need for help from your IT department.

Xcelsius lets you replace tedious rows of data with easy-to-comprehend,

interactive charts and analytics.

It allows you to uncover previously unseen patterns

and trends in your business – with the ability to quickly analyze "what-if" scenarios

to help you make the best decisions.

What's more, Xcelsius lets you create visually stunning dashboards and presentations.

You can take advantage of pre-built themes and flexible designs

to easily customize presentations to meet your needs.

So you can engage, inform, and persuade your audience to take the actions

you know are best for your business.

Xcelsius capabilities are delivered in three powerful products.

Xcelsius Engage lets you easily transform complex data into comprehensive,

interactive dashboards.

You can create personalized dashboards from spreadsheets or a live data source,

and export those dashboards to familiar formats such as Microsoft Office.

Xcelsius Engage Server lets you quickly build dashboards for your department

or your entire company.

You can connect to multiple live data sources

so that your people are making the right decisions – in real-time, every time.

Xcelsius Present empowers you to create visually engaging, interactive presentations.

Xcelsius Present brings static spreadsheets to life with interactive charts

and dynamic what-if scenarios.

All without the need for training, programming – or IT support.

With Xcelsius Present, you can transform ordinary spreadsheets into interactive charts,

get started immediately with pre-built templates,

and share presentations in familiar formats

such as Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Word, and Adobe PDF.

You have the tools you need

to create presentations that stand out from the crowd,

share your insights with colleagues and senior management,

and make confident recommendations based on accurate analysis.

Let's see just how easy it is to create a dashboard in Xcelsius

and export it to a PowerPoint presentation.

To start, simply click on the Import button to bring a spreadsheet into Xcelsius.

Next, choose from a selection of visual themes and color palettes.

Then, just drag and drop the kinds of charts

and visual components you want into the workspace.

You can choose from a pre-built menu of charts and graphs.

Even first-time users will find it easy.

Then, it's simply a matter of linking the components to your imported spreadsheet.

In this scenario, there are three components to link.

For charts, you can customize elements such as column labels,

or just link to the data cells in your spreadsheet.

Just a few clicks, and you're done.

A quick preview lets you activate the components

to create a completely interactive dashboard.

The dashboard is capable of what-if scenarios

that show how changes to a key business metric, such as costs,

can affect different parts of the business.

You can even use interactive maps to show metrics by region.

When you're ready to add your interactive dashboard to a PowerPoint presentation,

it's as simple as pointing and clicking.

You can also embed your dashboard in an interactive report

within Crystal Reports solutions,

combining two powerful ways of representing data.

Xcelsius makes it fast and easy to create interactive dashboards

and presentations that engage, inform, and persuade your audience.

You've seen how Xcelsius software from SAP consolidates data

and illuminates your business with powerful visualizations and dashboards.

You have the information you need to make decisions,

take actions – and achieve the results you want.
