OpenGate Software Inexpensive Business Intelligence for Microsoft® Access™ with Dashboard Builder™

Denver, CO, February 28, 2008 - OpenGate Software, provider of Microsoft Access application tools, announced today the general availability of Dashboard Builder, which offers Microsoft Access users a simple way to create stunning dashboards using their Access, MySQL, and SQL Server data.

“Dashboard Builder offers an exciting opportunity for small businesses and Access users to gain significant value from the data they maintain in their desktop database applications,” said Brandon Smith, President of OpenGate Software. “Business intelligence is typically the realm of expensive vendors like SAP’s Business Objects, with prices that places it out of reach for many businesses. Dashboard Builder provides a powerful yet inexpensive way to create numerous dashboards with meaningful business metrics that can then be used to make smart decisions.”

Dashboard Builder includes features that allow users to drilldown into greater detail stored in their Access database, and visual representations that enable users to quickly see if a specific performance indicator is within a desired range.

“In keeping with our other Microsoft Access-based products, Dashboard Builder is designed to do the heavy lifting for the user. No Visual Basic is required, and knowledge of SQL queries is only needed when a user wants to create complex metrics,” said Smith. “Customers can expect to see the same level of reliability, performance, and investment in support they see today with our popular UI Builder line of products.”

Information about Dashboard Builder, including evaluation licenses and online demonstrations are available at http://www.opengatesw.net
