CONNX Solutions and Martin Group Enter Partnership to Provide High-Performance Ad Hoc Reporting Solution
CONNX Solutions, Inc., a leading provider of simplified data access and integration software solutions, announces today its partnership with Martin Group, a leading-edge provider of Operation Support Systems and Business Support Systems.
Redmond, WA (PRWEB) July 28, 2004 -- CONNX Solutions, Inc., a leading
provider of simplified data access and integration software solutions, announces
today its partnership with Martin Group, a leading-edge provider of Operation
Support Systems and Business Support Systems (OSS/BSS) for the
telecommunications industry, to provide a high-performance ad hoc reporting
solution.
CONNX Solutions' flagship product, CONNX, runs on a
distributed SQL engine that is unique to CONNX and enables users to gain access
to .NET-, JDBC-, OLE DB-, or ODBC-driven data. The CONNX technology provides
real time access to disparate data sources from the desktop and helps customers
unlock their data quickly and easily, making it easier to receive a visible
return on investment.
Another benefit of the partnering of CONNX
Solutions and Martin Group is the speed with which OSS and BSS customers will be
able to create ad hoc reports. Since CONNX uses resources from both the client
and server machines, performance levels are automatically elevated. And once the
data has been collected into a CONNX Data Dictionary, reports can be created in
any of a variety of standard SQL applications, including Microsoft Office and
Crystal Reports, to name a few. Users also will be able to integrate with and
access enterprise data through any of the more than 30 relational or
non-relational databases supported by CONNX, all through a single
connection.
“The ODBC driver and the support I have received from Martin
Group have allowed me to access data from VMS (Martin Group’s USOC-based
Customer Care and Billing Solution) on my schedule and build customized and
meaningful reports based on my criteria,” says Bob Marcotte, Systems Analyst and
Developer at Kerman Telephone and an early adopter of the CONNX ad hoc reporting
solution. “Now, I have the answers at my fingertips! I can handle report
requests and questions from Marketing to Accounting. This has enabled us to
analyze data and make better business decisions quicker than ever. The value of
this driver is a no-brainer.”
"The CONNX Solutions and Martin Group
partnership offers a timely, comprehensive, and integrated solution to today's
expert service providers," says Shirley McKinney, Director of Business
Development at CONNX. "With CONNX, Martin Group customers can preserve their IT
investments, be able to position themselves to implement more efficient
processes, and experience expanded time savings. This partnership enables the
penetration of our innovative and exciting tool into a vertical market: the
telecommunications industry."
