About Dimensional Insight

Established in 1989, Dimensional Insight (DI) is a privately held company specializing in the development and marketing of multidimensional data visualization, analysis, and reporting software. This cost effective solution enables decision makers across all levels and functional areas of an organization to access and analyze data quickly and intuitively. People worldwide use Dimensional Insight to identify new opportunities, improve their business operations and increase their profits.

 

Over 5000 customers throughout North America, South America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East use Dimensional Insight technology. Moreover, 3 DI offices serve the expanding China market. In addition to Fortune 500TM enterprises like DuPont, Michelin, Cigna, New Balance, and Avis, many of Dimensional Insight's customers are small and medium sized organizations. Typically, they are strongly attracted to the rapid implementation (often just a few days) and exceptionally low demand on IT staff for ongoing maintenance - such as modifying or creating reports. Dimensional Insight is consistently profitable, with no debt or venture capital. Dimensional Insight focuses 100% on customer satisfaction - unlike many publicly-quoted software vendors that are distracted by their stockholders regular quarterly demand for consistently higher sales and higher earnings.

 

Frederick A. Powers and Stanley R. Zanarotti co-founded Dimensional Insight expressly to fulfill a need of organizations that was unanswered by existing technology. That need was the ability for users enterprise-wide, both technical and non-technical, to access and analyze all their corporate data, the breadth and the depth, "on the fly", and without pre-programmed views or query sequences.

 

President and CEO Powers' vision was to develop versatile products that would allow access to the entire "sea of information" for users at all levels, while enabling any one user to view the data in the manner best suited to his or her specific needs, e.g., summary level data for top management, and detail data for analysts.

 

Achieving this goal, however, required the ability to process enormous amounts of corporate data and make them accessible to end users - something technology at the time could not do. Towards this end, Powers and Zanarotti developed unique, patented cross-indexing technology allowing large amounts of data to be summarized, indexed and transformed into a "free-form" multidimensional database called a Model.
