Logi for
Embedded
Analytics
Why Choose
Logi Analytics?
Architecture Made for Embedding
Your application is unique, and so should be the
analytic content and capabilities that you offer to
your customers. Logi Info is the best platform to quickly create, integrate, and iterate upon embedded analytics with minimal impact on development resources and infrastructure.
• With the Logi Info platform, you fully dictate
the user experience you offer: choosing
from a full spectrum of analytic capabilities (static, interactive, self-service, exploratory) and embedding options (as a separate module versus fully contextual analytics within
core application workflows).
• The flexible and highly granular security layer can adopt the security model of the
main application ensuring the proper access for all end users—a necessity for SaaS applications.
• Our unique development approach enables even complex embedding scenarios to be achieved with minimal coding.
• The look and feel can be adapted to match your application—your customers will never know Logi Info is running behind the scenes. • Deployed on industry standard Web
application servers, Logi Info is ready for both cloud or on-premise implementations.

Software and SaaS Providers Love
Logi Analytics
Time and time again, we hear from software and SaaS providers about the great things their company has achieved after implementing Logi Info as their embedded analytics platform.
• Create a competitive product offering
• Receive industry recognition for their use of analytics in their product
Platform Approach
Logi Info is a complete and extensible platform for the creation of uniquely tailored user experiences for your customers in your application. Unlike traditional BI solutions that take an application-centric approach
and offer the same end user interface to everyone, Logi Info’s flexibility enables our customers to meet a wide range of requirements and to differentiate
the user experience from the competition. No two implementations of Logi embedded analytics need ever look or act the same.
Analytics – Your Way!
With Logi Info, software and SaaS providers quickly deliver core BI and analytics capabilities to a range of business users. These capabilities include interactive dashboards, drill down reporting, self-service data exploration and analysis, custom reporting and visualizations, and benchmarking. The content and capabilities are presented to the user in a variety of ways, such as a standalone analytics application, a module within an existing application, or a set of interactive visualizations that take up an entire page or just a small portion of a page. The packaging and granularity of the analytic content and capabilities is implemented to match the way your users work.
Seamless Embedding for Superior
User Experience
To create a great user experience, it is essential for users
to quickly and efficiently transition from analysis to action.
Analytic content and capabilities can be embedded within
the application workflow, and can even be driven by the
UI controls of the main application. You can also create analytics-driven application functionality with bi-directional
data flows—Logi Info has the ability to call Web Service
APIs and write-back to data sources based on user input. The ability to achieve a truly embedded experience enables users to derive insights quickly and take action immediately.
Complete White Labeling Capabilities
To maintain a consistent user experience and preserve the appearance of your brand, the look and feel of embedded analytics can be completely controlled. This includes everything from colors and fonts to data visualizations and input controls. White labeling capabilities are maintained through the use of custom themes, CSS, Javascript, and HTML.
“One of the main reasons we were named a
Gartner Cool Vendor is our analytics capabilities
and these are largely because we implemented
Logi Info.”
--Wiard Hidding, Director Strategic Projects & Product Owner, Interactive Medica
Rapid Application
Development Approach
Logi Info optimizes the process of creating and modifying embedded analytic content through aconfiguration intensive approach instead of a code
intensive approach. The unique “Elemental Design” Approach enables short time-to-market, agile development and iteration cycles, and low impact on development resources.
Leverage Your Team’s Existing Skill Sets
Implementing even the most complex embedding
scenarios requires minimal coding:
• HTML and Javascript for contextual embedding at the presentation tier
• Server-side code for security integration • SQL for data retrieval
Embedding of analytic content leverages the skill sets and methodologies of your existing development team, fast-tracking new features to market.
Rich Set of Capabilities Out-of-the-Box
Logi Info provides a continually updated library of
elements to embed:
• Data visualizations and dashboards • Self-service analysis
• Interactivity options • User input controls • Data source connectivity • Processes and API connectors
This allows our customers to stay on top of current trends in data visualization design, while supporting
Mobile Ready Development
Logi Info generates standard HTML and HTML5 which means content and interactivity is available on browser-based applications as well as embedded within native mobile apps. Analytic content will automatically resize and rearrange visual elements to optimize use of the screen on the mobile device. Logi applications can also automatically utilize features available to mobile devices, such as numeric input screens, messaging, and mapping apps. With Logi Info, mobile deployments avoid the high cost of
platform-specific development, and are readily available to all users
regardless of device.
“We had a planned integration timeframe of 3 to
6 months. We were very surprised and happy to
have a fully integrated product within the first
30 days.”
Lightweight Web
Architecture
Logi Info is built on and for the leading industry Web application platforms. Because it is deployed on industry standard Web application servers, Logi Info can easily be deployed to every major on-premise, hosted, or cloud based infrastructures. Unlike traditional BI systems, proprietary servers and a heavy metadata layer with ETL processing is not a pre-requisite to delivering value to customers. The lightweight architecture allows customers to utilize widely known techniques to deploy and scale, minimizing costs and investment in proprietary technologies.
Flexible Security Model with Deep
Multi-Tenancy SaaS Support
Minimal effort is required to implement and manage
the desired security controls. The Logi Info security model digests the user roles and rights from the main application and does not require separate storage or maintenance of user records. Parameter-driven and highly granular security features control
access and visibility across multiple levels: reports,
charts, application functions, and data columns and rows. SaaS providers can easily partition access to disparate data sources, as well as dynamically query within multi-tenant/co-mingled data sources. Logi Info is ideal for software providers who want to develop and deploy once for multiple clients.
Flexible Data Tier
Logi Info supports a wide variety of commercial and generic data sources out-of-the-box, including relational databases,
Web Service APIs, Big Data sources, and files. Plug-ins
can be developed for interacting with uncommon and
proprietary data sources. Bi-directional data flow supports
writing and updating of data, in addition to data retrieval for analysis. The lightweight approach does not require a metadata layer or an exercise in data modeling. In addition, data from multiple sources can be joined together without the need to stand up an intermediate data store.
Extensibility
Developers can extend the functionality of Logi Info to meet custom requirements as they arise. CSS and Javascript (including JQuery) is typically employed to create unique user interfaces. Custom plug-ins (.NET and Java) can be employed to execute business logic, implement proprietary algorithms, or comply with desired data
handling procedures.
“Logi Info’s data exploration features give users
the power to answer questions right away. The
ability to identify and understand risk and
breaches like this in real-time is something that
has never been available in our industry before.”
--Chris Sullivan, Vice President of Product Planning Courion Corporation
