Spotfire now empowers mobile executives and business users to consolidate data sources and visually interact with and analyze data to answer critical business questions. Highlights include:

• Touch-Enabled Dashboards - Right in Your Hand. Spotfire now gives users a powerful, intuitive and interactive mobile BI experience. With the ability to see charts, graphs and tables - as well as the ability to interact with those visual analytics in real time - users can tap, pinch or swipe the iPad screen, with every movement providing a new visual view of the data instantly.

• Powerful Analysis - On the Run. With Spotfire, users of the iPad tablet can access important information where and when they need it - whether running a predictive analytic application or simply visualizing trends in data.

• Knowledge-Sharing - In a Mobile Environment. With one click, Spotfire users can now upload and share user-generated visual and interactive dashboards and templates instantly on the iPad tablet with a community of like-minded users. They can also self-publish these fully functional examples by uploading them to Spotfire's public Web server and then alerting friends and followers through popular social media sites.
