INCISIVE ONLINE OVERVIEW

Incisive Online Overview

About Incisive Online
Incisive Online is the industry’s FIRST spreadsheet analysis and management software as a service. Developed for all levels of spreadsheet users, Incisive Online provides a comprehensive examination of spreadsheets to help identify root problems. Complexity of formulas, volume of linkages to other cells/worksheets/spreadsheets, volume of data and spreadsheet size all contribute to the inherent risk of a spreadsheet. Incisive Online gives users visibility into spreadsheet risk and identifies defects for swift analysis and resolution.

• Structure Report. Graphical display of the spreadsheet structure helps users understand how a spreadsheet was designed to work as well as to identify defects
• Risk Assessment and Summary Reports. Spreadsheet metrics give users visibility into spreadsheet risk – and potential liability – to the organization. Metrics including complexity of formulas, volume of linkages to other cells/worksheets/spreadsheets, volume of data and spreadsheet size all contribute to the inherent risk of a spreadsheet.
• Critical Error Report and Heat Map. Text- and Graphic-based reports guide users to errors and unknown risks, including hidden cells, for swift analysis and resolution
• Diff Reporting Compares cell values and formulas, as well as named ranges, using both text- and graphic-based reports.
  • Cell values and formulas are compared at the same time at both the workbook and worksheet level – no need to run separate analysis reports
  • Incisive Online is the only solution that examines and compares named ranges. Names can: inadvertently “disappear” and cause difficulty in diagnosing miscalculations; and/or grow, shrink shift, which may lead to incorrect results. If a name is a constant, holds a formula, includes external reference or the spreadsheet is simply has too many names to review, Diff Reporting will recognize any changes and allow users to recover from these situations.

Furthermore, we recognize that you care about your spreadsheets and personal data. And, we take all reasonable precautions to keep your information safe and secure. That is why we implemented Extended Validation SSL, the most trusted and secure option of SSL technology to protect your sensitive information for your peace of mind. You will know SSL is hard at work by the green address bar in the latest high-security browsers. Furthermore, we will not store your spreadsheets so you never have to worry about your data.
