How does the Analyzer edition work?
For administrators, who want to have a handle on their Notes client environment, it is crucial to know the audience. Whether the daily administration or starting client upgrades to new version, both require knowledge about the environment. The major issue: there are many ways how Notes clients can be installed and configured. So, unexpected errors and hiccups become probable, which show up at support desk and put your infrastructure project at risk.
Imagine, you can answer those questions straightaway:
Notes client inventory
A deep understanding of your current environment and your typical client configuration is essential before implementing a centralized client management solution or an IT project. To gain this understanding, you need to collect and analyze client data. ClientGenie collects all the client information you need (such as client hardware and operating system information, Notes program and data directory, location and connection documents, replicas and replication settings, etc.) during the start-up of the Notes client without any user impact. Even collection and protected storage for users‘ ID files becomes possible.
Client data - what can be collected?
Analyze & audit your environment
So, how to access the information collected? On an entry level a set of Notes views allow detailed analysis of the client data. But what you are looking for, is knowledge, not data, right? So, information at a glance is available through aggregated charts and summaries for the most common use cases. If this still does not comply to your specific needs, custom reports can be created via exporting the collected user data using JDBC Access (Java Database Connectivity), available with the Advanced Analyzer edition. It allows dashboard style reports and workable spreadsheets generation with any SQL compatible Business Intelligence (BI) tool like BIRT or even Excel, if you prefer it.
