Analysis-One is honoured to be included in Mashable’s comprehensive list of essential tools for running a business online.

Mashable is one of the world’s largest technology blogs for Web 2.0 related news. Analysis-One is featured in the “Organization & Management” category of this list.

For interest, here are some online tools which we use on a daily basis to run our business:

1. For online demonstrations we use GoToMeeting
2. For website analytics we use Google Analytics
3. For uptime monitoring we use Pingdom
4. To manage our sales pipeline we use Salesforce
5. For bug tracking we utilise Mantis
6. For email and promotional campaigns we use Campaign Monitor
7. To gather feedback we use SurveyMethods
8. For staff professional development we use the training libarary at Lynda.com
9. And of course, we use Analysis-One to measure and monitor the financial and non-financial performance of our business.

We would happily recommend these tools to other businesses.

We’d like to announce the latest addition to the analysis-one toolkit - 'Horizontal Analysis'.

The 'Horizontal Analysis' tool gives insight into the change between two financial periods for every item in the income statement, balance sheet and financial ratios.

We don't stop there though! Visual cues highlight the positive and negative effects of each item with respect to overall business value. Problem areas are quickly identified. The report is also available for download in Word and Excel allowing you to include the data in your own reports.

The first step is to login and go into your model/business. Then choose the new 'Horizontal Analysis' button.

 
Next, choose two periods to compare.

The result is a powerful visual analysis that shows the dollar change and the relative percentage change for each item in the Income Statement and Balance Sheet. Positive effects are highlighted in green, negative effects are highlighted in red. Arrows are used to show the direction of the change. 



You will also see the Financial Ratios...



And finally, at the bottom of the page you have the ability to export the results to Word or Excel.

That’s it! We hope you enjoy the new tool. Please contact us if you have any feedback.    

The team at eis-one is pleased to announce the launch of the new analysis-one website. This website seeks to demonstrate the features and functionality of the analysis-one tool. Included in this website are video tours, sample screenshots and also the ability to request a trial evaluation of the tool. We hope that the contents of this site will demonstrate the use of analysis-one as an online tool for business performance management.

In addition, the website also has a supporting blog which will act as a forum to announce new enhancements and features. We anticipate that planned features currently in the development 'pipeline', may also be announced via this blog.

Postings related to the subject of business performance analysis will also appear in this blog.
