Set Up Vantagepoint Intelligence

Vantagepoint Intelligence (VI) is an optional module that you can use to create customized views of your information. Customers who subscribe to the Vantagepoint Intelligence module have access to additional dashboard and data visualization functions.

The VI Desktop Tool allows you to connect VI to your Vantagepoint SQL database or Analysis Cubes as a data source and create graphical performance dashboards.
