provided by independent users and analysts.



[OCTOBER 2003 - OLAP consulting company consultant who has been using OLAP
technology since the late 1980's]

"...I LOVED the speed that views were done in!!! I liked the
"one-stop-shopping" to set up the views -- although some of my co-workers
thought the screen was a little "busy", I didn't mind the "business", since
I found it easy to just go one place to make all of my choices..."

"My first impression is that O2OLAP has most features that people will want
and is probably easiest to use (a co-worker commented that was that it was
most "XXX-like" in manner of use -- meaning that it is easy!!!! ... he has
been forced to use tools other than XXX lately and found them more
difficult...so the fact that he said that was a compliment!!!!)"

"I looked a little into the profiler ... I think that the idea is wonderful,
lets you do things that users always ask to do...."


[OCTOBER 2003 - Large technology employment company requiring a 50 port
solution]
