ManageEngine announced its entry into the self-service IT analytics market with the launch of Analytics Plus.

Designed for mid- to large-size organizations that want to draw insights from their IT data, Analytics Plus integrates easily with various data sources and tools, analyzes vast data volumes and presents findings with rich visualizations.

"Most companies want the IT analytics payoff, but few want to pay the steep IT analytics price," said Sridhar Iyengar, VP, ManageEngine. "We're uniquely positioned to drive the widespread adoption of this powerful technology. We know IT management and how to make it both powerful and simple. We know IT admins, managers, CIOs and CEOs and what they expect in analytics-driven insights. And we know business intelligence and analytics thanks to the 10 years our sister division, Zoho.com, has spent refining those technologies, which we're leveraging in Analytics Plus."

Analytics Plus meets the growing requirement to put IT analytics within every organization's reach and provide the insights and visibility needed to make better decisions, faster. Harnessing ManageEngine's deep experience across the IT management spectrum, Analytics Plus brings together and correlates islands of data to instantly provide insights in the form of rich visualization and interactive dashboards.

Highlights include:

- Fast to set up and easy to use: In minutes, Analytics Plus can be installed and configured, and visualizations can be created. Unlike other analytics tools, Analytics Plus is simple to use and offers an intuitive drag-and-drop visual studio to create dashboards easily.

- data blending, analytics and statistics: Analytics Plus lets users do cross-data analytics and offers a "look up" model to merge different data sets using common fields. It provides pre-built analytical functions and an excel-like formula engine with an extensive library of mathematical and statistical functions.

- Rich visual presentation and analysis: Users can create reports and dashboards that include charts, widgets, KPI metrics, pivot tables, and tabular view components. The dashboards let users visually slice and dice data, drill down into details, and change the appearance using different chart types and pre-defined templates.

- One tool to unify insights from various data sources: The Analytics Plus architecture lets users analyze data from a variety of data sources such as spreadsheets, files and feeds, relational and non-relational databases, applications and Web API, providing a unified view of their entire IT.

- Sharing and collaborative working: With Analytics Plus, users can securely share reports and dashboards with others to reach consensus and make group decisions quickly. Dashboards can be embedded in websites, intranets and other Web apps for wider access with fine-grained control.

- Work seamlessly across Web and mobile devices: Analytics Plus is also available as a mobile app for Android and iOS tablets, so users can access and interact with the reports and dashboards already created, on the move.

- Lower Total cost of Ownership (TCO): Analytics Plus saves organizations up to 50 percent in total costs compared to leading IT analytics tools offering similar functionality.

"We recently researched this space in our report, ‘Advanced IT Analytics: A Look at Real Adoptions in the Real World,'" said Dennis Drogseth, vice president, Enterprise Management Associates. "We found that ITSM and service desk were the second most-likely factors driving adoption of advanced IT analytics strategies. That's only three percent down from the first driving factor, which was the IT executive suite. Additionally, 82 percent of the respondents indicated strong ITSM integrations."

Iyengar said, "Our own ITSM customer surveys concur with EMA's findings. We believe Analytics Plus for ITSM marks a turning point in analytics — for ITSM and for IT as a whole."

Analytics Plus is currently in beta.
