Product Details

Easy Implementation
As the only broadcast-specific business intelligence tool, NetGain was built for fast implementation. The system arrives with a library of standard media-specific reports, such as account detail and sales performance, which you can use immediately or customize to your business. NetGain is currently integrated to five different media sales, ratings, traffic and programming source systems, and additional source systems can be easily integrated.

Expandable and Scalable
Business intelligence systems must be able to cost-effectively grow as you grow. NetGain is based on the highly scalable MicroStrategy® Business Intelligence Platform™ and can easily expand from supporting a single department to an entire enterprise.

Flexible, Customizable Reporting
NetGain is designed to enable the development of dashboards and reports that allow you to optimize your business. Supporting the needs of both IT and the self-serve BI user, NetGain provides flexible and customizable reporting that spans a range of requirements from highly formatted corporate dashboards to ad-hoc reports generated on the fly from users.

Access to Data Visualization Tools
NetGain Visual Insight allows you to quickly and easily explore any data contained in personal spreadsheets, databases, or Hadoop®. Investigate and analyze the data further by defining new metric calculations, zooming into details with filters, and color-coding the results with thresholds. Create multiple visualizations to get additional insights and perspectives that enhance data comprehension. Combine your findings into a dashboard you can save and share with your colleagues.

Data Mining and Predictive Analysis Tools
Reports give an invaluable view into trends and performance. NetGain goes beyond basic historical reporting to offer strategic, predictive analytics and alerts that help anticipate the likelihood of a future event, such as customer churn or sell-out rates.

Using NetGain Data Mining Services, business users, report designers and analysts can build predictive reports and distribute these reports to all relevant decision makers and stakeholders. NetGain Data Mining Services allow organizations to use predictive functions that are natively available within NetGain, or import models from third-party data mining vendors such as Open Source R analytics.
