More time for analysis

Monday, 4. May 2009

Often times I find myself trapped in data pulls across multiple time periods which leaves me little time for actual analysis. Not to mention how slow the reporting server can be and when the time period span across more than one year. I have to not only deal with multiple data pulls but also cut and paste data into Excel spreadsheets for additional computation. Whether it be calculating % distribution or % change YOY and MOM, there is simply not enough time that is left for real analysis. For these reasons, I can’t live without Omniture SiteCatalyst’s Excel Plugin. For all of you out there, please use it if you haven’t. Save time from pulling data so you’ll have more time for generating insight.
