As an enterprise-grade BI and analytics platform, Pyramid Analytics supports full-service workflows in a governed environment.

In time, they moved beyond simple line charts to understand the data behind them—a natural transition from the static numbers to which they were accustomed to a more meaningful way of understanding their business.
