SharePoint Specialists Pentalogic Technology Release New: PivotPoint Web Part, Bringing Unique Pivot Chart and Table Functionality to SharePoint

Cheltenham, England (PRWEB) July 08, 2011

SharePoint specialists Pentalogic Technology have today announced the release of v2 of their PivotPoint web part for SharePoint. V2 adds significant new functionality, including Pivot Charting to this well established product.

Pivot Point v1 was launched back in 2009 and is the only product on the market to bring Pivot Table functionality direct to SharePoint list data. Its always been a very popular product with certain parts of our market, says Pentalogic CTO and founder Ryan Wheeler. People in the finance sector, for example, have a clear understanding of how useful a Pivot Table is for summarizing and analysing long lists. So we tend to sell a lot of PivotPoints to places like banks, insurers and accountants.

Although the finance guys are happy to look at their figures in a table, for the rest of us dashboards with charts and graphs can make things a lot easier to understand at a glance, says Wheeler. So for v2 of PivotPoint we have added charting functionality to the mix.

We think its very exciting." Wheeler continued "Because PivotPoint is connected directly to your SharePoint list data charts and tables update dynamically. So for example if you had PivotPoint looking at a sales list, you could set up dashboard with a table and a column chart and literally watch your sales growing in front of you as new items were added to your list. Thats something we could all enjoy doing! Anyone who has tried using Excel Services to display Pivot Tables in SharePoint will understand what an advance this is.

And," Wheeler explained, "because PivotPoint is connected directly to the list we have also been able to provide a drill down from the web part, to the relevant filtered group of list items. So, if you had a dashboard monitoring Help Desk Performance, with a Pie Chart showing tickets by team member, you could click on the segment of the chart relating to one team member and go straight to a filtered view of the list showing just that persons tickets.

With version 2 PivotPoint provides a unique interactive and dynamic summary interface for SharePoint list data," Wheeler continued. " we use it all the time in house: in our sales dashboard of course, to monitor staff vacations and absence from work, to track Helpdesk performance. There are so many potential uses for PivotPoint that its difficult to think of a SharePoint deployment that wouldnt benefit from one.

Weve also worked hard to keep PivotPoint simple. Pivot Tables are powerful analysis tools and when we added Pivot Charting to the mix it would have been easy to get carried away and create a highly complex application, explains Wheeler. We understand that there are some occasions where users may want to perform very complex analysis and create very fancy tables and graphs there are great tools already on the market for this kind of work. But for most SharePoint users, most of the time, the need is for an application that is quick and easy to set up, and delivers tables, charts and graphs which are easy for the user to interpret at a glance. You can take a look at our video demo to see just how easy to use PivotPoint is.

PivotPoint v2 is on sale now. Single server licenses are priced at $ 745 and licensing options for small business users and larger organizations are also available. Pentalogic also offer a 30 free trial which can be downloaded from the website.

TMR Announces Release of Fan Cost Experience -- a New iPhone App for Sports Fans

Wilmette, IL (PRWEB) November 02, 2011

Team Marketing Report recently released the Fan Cost Experience, a brand-new iPhone application tailor-made for fans looking to get the best deals on beer, tickets, and food at sports events. Sports fans can also use the app to see how their team's prices compare to those around the country.

As one of the leading authorities on ticket prices for sports in North America, Team Marketing Report is uniquely qualified to put out such a product. Since 1991, Team Marketing Report has published the well-known Fan Cost Index (TM), a survey of pricing for the four major sports of North America. Now, with the Fan Cost Experience app, fans can report what theyre buying and how much theyre spending on tickets and concessions.

The Fan Cost Index measures the cost of a family of four to attend a sporting event. The FCI total consists of four tickets (using season ticket pricing), two beers, four soft drinks, four hot dogs, parking for one car, two programs and two hats. TMR recently released the Fan Cost Index for the 2011-12 NHL season, which is available at the Fan Cost Experience website.

TMR has historical FCI packages for sale on its website at fancostexperience.com. If you are interested in purchasing the FCI package, please contact Dan Bulla at dbulla(at)teammarketing(dot)com.

The FCI, and Team Marketing Report, gets major media attention from the Associated Press, CNBC, MarketWatch, the New York Times, and many other outlets. TMR executive editor Jon Greenberg has done countless interviews as a sports marketing expert.

The Fan Cost Experience was borne out of TMRs desire to see what fans are actually buying at games, and for how much.

The FCE app, which is available for 99 cents at the Apple Store, allows users to enter pricing for tickets, where they bought tickets (online, at the stadium, or through secondary markets), and where they are seated. Concession-wise, there are many options outside the normal FCI purview, including nachos, gluten-free foods, hamburgers, etc. Fans can report how much they spent on each item (as most parks have different pricing options) and where they purchased the item.

The pricing entries then go into a TMR-controlled database, which gives the user an idea on how their purchases relate to other ones in the stadium or arena. It also gives ever-evolving averages for the stadium or arena.

TMR hopes to use the data to compile written reports that compare static FCI data with Fan Cost Experience information taken over time.

Outskirts Press Announces the Release of What is the Church?, the Latest Highly-Anticipated Book from Author Hector J. Grant, Sr.

Denver, CO and San Antonio, TX (PRWEB) August 24, 2007

The webpage at http://www.outskirtspress.com/HectorJGrantSr was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.

About the Book (Excerpts & Info)

"What Is the Church?" This question guides the Christian in understanding the proper relation that should exist between the individual believer and the institution. The Church is never personal property or a Private Club. The Church is always the association of those who have experienced a personal relationship to Jesus Christ, and are committed to living a life faith despite contrary circumstances.

"Are You Expecting?" is the question that challenges the Christian believer to live a life of constant awareness of what God is doing in the world, and to remain ready to respond when called to unique and special service.

"Finally, Farewell" is the word releasing the baton of service to the trusted hands of others, after a well run leg of the relay race of ministry. These and other sermons challenge both clergy and laity to remain alert to recognize and respond to the many seasons and celebrations of ministry.

Deftly constructed at 196 pages, What is the Church?: Occasional and Seasonal Sermons for the Busy Pastor is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the American - African American category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, What is the Church? meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $ 15.95.
