With this latest release, enterprise level business intelligence can be performed on any data stored or shared in Google spreadsheets. Google spreadsheets is a unique and interesting data source: an online, sharable spreadsheet. There are many uses for Google spreadsheets … as Jonathan Rochelle and Nir Bar Lev blogged on the official Google blog.

SiSense provides common sense business intelligence software that assists in visualization, analysis, dashboarding and reporting. SiSense uses a unique in-memory database that allows for complex analytics without building a middle tier for the data, so no scripting, programming or IT efforts are required.

“This adds to our support of SQL, MySQL, Oracle, Excel and SQL Analysis Services” said Eldad Farkash, SiSense co-founder and CEO “our vision is to bring business intelligence everywhere, to everyone. The way to do so is to allow anyone to directly query the data, so no additional IT effort is required to prepare the data for analysis”.

“One of the key advantages of Google spreadsheets is the ability to build a collaborative spreadsheet. SiSense now takes this ability and adds to it operational business intelligence within a wrokgroup” said Farkash.

SiSense connects to many data sources (Excel, Google spreadsheets, MySQL, SQL server, Oracle, csv and OLAP) and allows analysis and reporting as deep as if there existed an OLAP cube, or one were to be created on the fly. Building a Dashboard takes less than 5 minutes.

SiSense is in public beta and offers its software free of charge. Once the company is out of beta, it will announce pricing for its software.
