User-driven custom reporting for SQL + more
SQL Server is a central part of the Microsoft data platform. Unfortunately, there is not a user-friendly interface that would allow end users to quickly access specific data sets or find data without knowing how to write SQL queries.
Popdock democratizes the SQL reporting experience by allowing IT teams to control who has access to the data and providing a user interface for users to self-service.
With Popdock, you can:
Not only can users create custom reports, but existing SQL views can also be made available.
The benefit of using your existing SQL views in Popdock is that there is an interface to work with the data and those lists can be accessed efficiently right along with all your other favorite reports. Users can create new favorites and there are several options built in to be able to share data:
One of the most powerful features of Popdock is being able to combine data and add restrictions, variables, and calculation. Join, merge, compare and summarize data across SQL tables and with other cloud and on-premise applications you use.
Some examples of combining Microsoft SQL data include:
SQL + CRM + ERP Data:
Exception Reports:
Legacy system data reporting
