FYI Corporation and DynoPlex Team to Deliver Advanced Data Visualization to the BlackBerry Wireless Platform
Wireless Enterprise Symposium, Orlando -
Wireless Enterprise Symposium, Orlando, April 19, 2005 – FYI® Corporation and DynoPlex, Inc. announced today a development and licensing agreement to extend FYI’s advanced data visualization solution to the BlackBerry® wireless platform from Research In Motion (NASDAQ: RIMM; TSX: RIM), enabling users to track large amounts of corporate data on their BlackBerry handhelds. FYI Visual™ will be available to BlackBerry users by Q3 2005.
By converting complex data into color-coded symbols, FYI Visual allows users to instantly view the state of their enterprise as easily as they would scan a newspaper’s weather map. This data visualization technology, one of the fastest-growing areas of the business intelligence market, will enable BlackBerry users to track every area of their business in just a glance. On a single screen, users can view 500 - 600 pieces of data without scrolling down.
DynoPlex assisted in the development of FYI Visual for BlackBerry using its innovative eTools components library. Use of eTools dramatically shortened development time, introduced flexible system architecture, and standardized visual navigation components, enabling FYI Corporation to rapidly adjust and customize FYI Visual to meet any customer' requirements.
“Having the ability to visualize operational data in near real-time is a tremendously innovative ‘killer app’ for BlackBerry,” said Kerry Gilger, CEO, FYI Corporation. “Being connected to email anyplace, anytime, is a revolutionary concept pioneered by BlackBerry. Imagine being able to now see every aspect of your enterprise’s sales figures, revenues and expenses in a color-coded screen, anywhere, anytime. It puts the full power of business intelligence right into the palm of your hand.”
“eTools™ was designed to enable a quality user experience and intuitive access to sometimes voluminous and complex corporate data,” said Sergey Fradkov, co-founder of DynoPlex. “FYI Visual is a perfect application to highlight this capability and being chosen by FYI further validates our approach.”
