VitarCharts is now IBCS certified. All IBCS features are available as a separate add-on to VitaraCharts starting with version 4.3
International Business Communication Standards (IBCS) are practical proposals for the design of reports, presentations, dashboards and the diagrams and tables contained therein. This involves the conception of the content, the visual perception and the application of a semantic notation.
Essentially its a set of standards that define how to present information in a consistent, easy-to-consume manner while making the presentation of data visually compelling.
As offered in VitaraCharts for MicroStrategy, IBCS compliance ensures that an organization would now be able to, within minutes, create beautiful charts that convey meaning very effectively.
