Viewer downloads include a free 30-day trial of Omniscope Professional, enabling you to share your data with others. At the end of the trial, the installation reverts to a free Viewer...no need to uninstall

Key features differentiating the free Viewer from activated Editions are highlighted in the comparison chart. New features in development and available in beta versions are summarised here. Note that there are two types of Omniscope files; publishable .IOK and shareable .IOM workgroup files:

  
  .IOK files created with Omniscope Professional and Enterprise Editions are widely publishable.They can be opened, navigated and filtered by anyone with the free Viewer installed.
     
  .IOM workgroup files created with a Standard Edition can be opened only by activated Omniscopes (Standard, Professional and Enterprise),not by free Viewer installations.


Omniscope Professional

- .IOK, database connections,auto-refresh,presentations & DataPlayer export

Saves both publishable .IOK (Publisher) and shareable .IOM (Workgroup) files of any size (potentially millions of records) up to the limits of your PCs*. Reads and writes spreadsheet data files (.XLS, .CSV, etc.), and connects directly to database views/tables using ODBC/JDBC. Merges multiple files and connects to remote data sources like Bloomberg and Salesforce. Enables seamless assembly of reporting data sets, refresh, analysis, reporting and presentation/publication using compact .IOK/.IOMfiles with embedded maps, images and links to documents, web pages and web services. Create, refresh and export interactive Flash DataPlayers, which offer significant business benefits whether used in documents or the web. Changes in source data are automatically imported (including data in files which must be merged or joined) whenever the .IOK file is opened. Using automatic live refresh, changes in a source.IOK file 'data mart' can be refreshed over a local network or the open web using polling.

Assemble, refresh and analyse structured data sets from many sources, prepare presentations using multiple tabbed Report Pages within each .IOK/.IOM file. Report Pages are interactive, highly-visual, multi-view tabbed pages that display like presentation slide shows. Omniscope-based business intelligence and reporting solutions can employ any a mix of Enterprise, Professional, Standard and read/query-only free Viewer Editions, resulting in a much lower cost-per-seat compared with many other business intelligence/reporting solutions.


Omniscope Enterprise

- automates publication, distribution and refresh of .IOK,.IOM and Flash DataPlayers

Saves both publishable .IOK (Publisher) and shareable .IOM (Workgroup) files of any size (potentially millions of records) up to the limits of the server on which it runs*. Includes separate Scheduler and Generator programs that automate the refresh and distribution of .IOK/.IOM/DataPlayer files.Usually run on 'always-on' server machines with continuous, direct access to source databases. Also offers publishers advanced file security, data refresh and revenue protection features, and Omniscope Online Java Web Start 'no installation' or 'zero-footprint' client-side deployment. You cantry the Omniscope Online deployment option here.

Scheduler- Periodically checks linked data sources (databases and spreadsheets) to refresh templated .IOKSource reporting files and distribute copies ofthe updated Source files to users. Scheduler-based refresh mode is best for standardised reports produced on a regular basis for a fixed distribution list. For more information on the Scheduler, contact Mashup Info.

Generator-Listens on a port for the presence of new .XML data files (transformed to Visokio schema) generated by your back-end systems. When such a file appears, the data is imported, applied to .IOK Template file(s) and copies of the updated .IOK/.IOM file(s) are then distributed in various ways. Generator-based customised data set refresh mode is best for creating personalised reports 'on-demand' whenever needed. For more information on the Generator, contact Mashup Info.
