Monarch Pro Overview Version 9

Monarch Pro's unique modeling technology allows even non-technical users to effortlessly build a collection of filters, calculations, summaries and charts and apply them to different data sets, plus export data at anytime to Excel, Access, PDF, and more all without programming and without help from the IT department.

No more data delays, no need for paper reports
Managers, analysts, auditors, accountants and staff workers might struggle with other highly complex BI tools, or wait for help from the IT department to get the data they need, causing frustrating delays, missed deadlines and lost business opportunities. To avoid such delays, they often resort to printing and flipping through thick paper reports run from their ERP system, HR/payroll system, banking, healthcare or government information system, or mainframe system, and then rekey the data into a spreadsheet, to perform needed analysis and reporting.

Monarch Pro ends such time-wasting, error-prone work. Monarch Pro transforms existing text-based or PDF reports into live, actionable data, and/or easily access other sources of data. This data can be sorted, filtered, combined with additional complimentary data from other sources, supplemented with new calculations, summarized, exported to Excel, Access, etc., all without programming and without help from the IT department!

So easy to use, Monarch Pro is the ideal solution for managers, analysts, accountants and auditors who want to access and manipulate data from trusted reports and other data sources, quickly and easily, without programming. IT professionals use Monarch Pro as well, to help reduce demands for custom database queries and report writing jobs.

Monarch Pro includes all the standard features of Monarch, the world's leading Report Mining and analysis tool, plus the ability to mine data from PDF reports, plus import and analyze data from XLS, MDB, DB, DBF, WKx, delimited text and HTML files, as well as any ODBC-compliant data source, including SQL Server and Oracle.
