In all seriousness, this is much more useful than to just soccer moms.
- systems 15y agopivot table is probably the most interesting interface to BI cubes, I've hardly seen them used elsewhere! so i can't really agree on your assumption that "other data sources" would represent 0.1%, in most business places i would say "other data sources" represent 100% of the usage
- skeletonjelly 15y agoFree online tools to do pivot tables on spreadsheet data. Sounds like small business to me. People who already have their data in spreadsheets and don't want to hire a BI engineer to install SQL, Analysis Services, construct cubes, reports etc etc
- lancewiggs 15y agoNot true at all. I could trade anecdotes but pivot tables are an essential tool in the analyst toolkit, without requiring external data. Great opportunity for someone to develop and share a standard spreadsheet for capturing and reporting usefully on iTunes appstore data.
- tvon 15y agoA bit of an aside, but because something is free does not mean it is above criticism nor does it mean you can't bitch about things it doesn't do.
