Lesson Nine: Publishing to the Qloud

Publish the model to the Quantrix Qloud
The Qloud is the web reporting service that complements Quantrix's business modeling and analytics software.  The Qloud lets business and finance professionals:

•     Publish Multidimensional Quantrix Models to the Web
•     Send Email Invitations to Colleagues and Clients to Securely View and Interact with Models
•     Control which Matrices are made Available to Viewers
•     Make Models Available for Viewing by the General Public
•     Provides 'Always on' Pivoting for Slicing, Dicing, and Filtering Data

The Qloud eliminates the need to install viewer software on the desktop.  It facilitates the sharing and reporting of business-critical information to colleagues, clients or the public (view a sample model on the Qloud).  The Qloud is hosted by Quantrix but can also be hosted by your organization.
