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.
