Sisense, the leading AI-driven platform for infusing analytics everywhere, announced the Sisense Extense Framework, an innovation developed to deliver AI-driven analytics experiences directly within the applications users are working in with no need to leave their workflow.
Sisense is introducing several new infusion applications built on the Extense Framework to deliver actionable intelligence to employees for enhanced operational, logistical, and role-based teamwork. The infusion applications for Slack, Salesforce, Google Sheets, Google Slides and Google Chrome are available on the Sisense Marketplace.
Dan Vesset, Group VP of market research analytic and information management, IDC, said: “While three quarters of mid-sized organizations and two thirds of large enterprises tell us that ease of embedding intelligence and analytics into business applications is an important requirement in their software selection process, only half say it is easy to embed analytics into apps.”
“This new framework from Sisense addresses a real market need by employees for less context switching among applications to access and act upon embedded intelligence in their daily workflows.”
Ashley Kramer, Chief Product and Marketing Officer at Sisense, said:
“Sisense continues to challenge the status quo by innovating on new ways to approach analytics in a seamless and guided way. Customers will no longer need to adjust their workflow or leave what they’re doing to search for insights in dashboards alone.”
“Now, any business user can go about their day-to-day activities in their favorite applications where analytics will be infused directly where they are working to impact everyday decisions.”
The Sisense Extense Framework will be released to all customers and partners interested to build their own infusion apps later this year. For now interested users are able to leverage these first-generation infusion apps now available on Sisense’s Marketplace including:
- Infused Analytics for Slack: Connect to your Sisense instance from Slack and ask questions like “Show me accounts that industry = healthcare” via the Slackbot to pull basic charts and records from views. Share this data with others in the business and interact with or take action on data directly in Slack using Sisense’s proprietary Natural Language Query
- Infused Analytics for Salesforce: Build a customised data story and embed Sisense visualisations and dashboards directly into Salesforce and infuse relevant intelligence and insights directly into the workflows to encourage easier access to data
- Infused Analytics for Google Sheets: Easily load data from Sisense into a spreadsheet with a click on a button
