InetSoft, a New Jersey–based software company and provider of the business intelligence (BI) and analytics application Style Intelligence, has just released version 11.4 of its BI suite. With feature enhancements in collaboration and search, Style Intelligence is striving to provide better support for collaborative and self-service BI features.

Some new key features include the ability to include annotations, which allow users  to write comments on any dashboard and share them with team members, as well as bookmarks, which allow users to save the settings of a particular view, enabling users to get back to a certain pre-configured visualization to review or share with others.

On the search side, Style Intelligence has been enhanced with features that allow users to perform search across report metadata to ease their discovery process.

Mark Flaherty, chief marketing officer at InetSoft comments,

With the aim of business intelligence tools to help people make better decisions faster, these feature additions fit in nicely. The more we can facilitate information sharing and streamline people’s efforts using our software, the more return our customers get out of their investment.

Style Intelligence has attractive features for building data mashups, and the communication process has been improved—users will find it easier to collaborate and share information with team workers. Kudos to InetSoft for these enhancements to its application.
