RapidViews was born from over 30 years of experience in Business Intelligence and analytics. Jérôme TOCANNE, founder of RapidViews, began his career in the mid-1990s at Business Objects, one of the global leaders in Business Intelligence. In 2006, DeciVision, a consulting firm specializing in Business Intelligence, was founded. Twenty years later, DeciVision brings together experts who support companies in their analytics projects and technological transformations.
In 2020, RapidViews, a software publisher, was created with an initial ambition: to accelerate the analytics projects of companies using SAP, particularly during their migration to SAP S/4HANA. We have thus developed pre-packaged analytics content allowing for the faster deployment of data models, KPIs, and business dashboards. These solutions still constitute an important part of our business.
Throughout our projects, we noticed that companies often lacked visibility over their BI assets:
- Which reports are actually used?
- Where does the data come from?
- Which reports are redundant?
- What will be the impact of a migration or a modification?
- How to transform your BI faster?
To meet these challenges, we created the BI Smart Repository, a platform dedicated to analytics governance. It makes it possible to map, document, analyze, and rationalize reports, models, KPIs, and their data sources.
RapidViews does not seek to become a generalist Data Governance platform. We focus on a specific expertise: the governance of analytics environments.
Our goal is to help technical and functional teams to:
- better understand their BI assets;
- reduce its complexity;
- identify unused or redundant components;
- secure migration projects;
- improve documentation and collaboration;
- transform analytics environments more quickly.
RapidViews thus combines three strengths:
- 30 years of experience in Business Intelligence,
- 20 years of BI consulting with DeciVision,
- and a product vision dedicated to analytics governance.
Our ambition is simple: to enable companies to better understand, govern, and transform their analytics assets.
