For Immediate Release.

The Dashboard Spy Business Intelligence White Paper Collection is now live and available to the general business community. Available at http://enterprise-dashboard.tradepub.com , this resource gathers leading business intelligence white papers and case studies from major software vendors and service providers. The BI white papers are categorized in an intuitive, easy-to-browse manner, summarized and offered for immediate download.

Prior to the launch of this unique business intelligence resource, the process of locating and requesting current white papers and case studies from multiple vendors was a time-consuming task involving searching many websites. During the beta test to a selected audience of business intelligence dashboard project teams and business users, the usability of the BI white paper collection was studied and optimized.

“Part of the value of reading white papers is to keep up with the latest trends and products” said a beta tester who manages an information technology department, “I spent a lot of time figuring out which whitepapers were hot and which ones were a waste of my time. Now I just look at the Top 10 White Papers list on the Dashboard Spy BI White Paper Collection to see which ones I really ought to read. My favorite section of the site is the I.T. white paper section at http://enterprise-dashboard.tradepub.com/?pt=cat&page=Info ”

The Dashboard Spy Business Intelligence White Paper Collection is a project led by The Dashboard Spy, a popular, but unidentified, figure in the business intelligence community. The Dashboard Spy publishes thousands of screenshots of business intelligence dashboards and scorecards as a reference resource for BI dashboard designers and users. “This resource is an outgrowth of the List of Dashboard Experts project available at http://dashboardspy.com/experts ” explains The Dashboard Spy. “People told me that they would love a collection of the most useful dashboard and business intelligence whitepapers.”

The Dashboard Spy can be found at http://dashboardspy.com and http://www.enterprise-dashboard.com.

    Fabulous - thanks for doing this.

    My introduction to BI would have been much smoother if this sort of content had been available to me.

    Mr. Tom - I’m not sure if all the downloads will work for non-US folks. If that is true, then use the white paper center as a starting point and google for the white paper you are interested. Let me know if you have trouble in this area. Also, there is a section specifically highlighting international targeted content.
