Denver, Colorado - (Website Hosting Directory) - September 6, 2006 - Channel visibility and location service solutions provider, InfoNow Corporation, has introduced its new Analytic Insight, a web-based reporting tool designed to deliver succinct, detailed, and security-enabled analyses of channel point-of-sale (POS) and inventory activities.

Developed to leverage InfoNow's Channel Insight service, Analytic Insight aims to provide improved channel visibility by delivering visual management dashboards, detailed charts, and in-depth reports grouped into unique, innovative InfoNow InsightProfiles. Analytic Insight offers companies that utilize channel-based marketing strategies powerful ad-hoc query capabilities, that can be configured in either an InfoNow hosted environment or as a supplement to a company's existing channel sales processing systems.

A key feature of Analytic Insight are its unique InsightProfiles, which deliver a combination of drillable graphs and reports, synchronized to provide a comprehensive view into the performance of each dimension of a company's channel sales activity. They leverage the experience of the InfoNow team of channel professionals and provide an instant "snapshot" of channel sales activity by reseller, territory, corporate end-user, product, partner program, distributor, or even by market segment such as SMB or enterprise. Clients receive unlimited user licenses; access information with point-and-click technology usable with no training or support; can export data to Excel, PDF or .CSV formats; and need no additional plug-ins or Active X controls to use the tools. Importantly, with the advanced security features embedded in Analytic Insight, senior sales and marketing executives gain the flexibility they need to decide who views what data. Executives can also better direct sales activities, appropriately manage resources and create more suitable compensation incentives with commission-grade data and Analytic Insight intelligence.

Mark Geene, CEO of InfoNow explained, ''The intelligence we gather through Analytic Insight and that we deliver through our easy-to-use InsightProfiles provides marketing and sales leaders with unprecedented visibility into channel sales and inventory data, enabling new levels of channel performance and control. Ultimately, these web-based InsightProfiles provide a snapshot of a company's most critical sales data, allowing clients to quickly interpret and analyze results and get on with building their businesses by generating revenue.''
