GUI data extraction tool for business users
347452Nov 6 2007 — edited Nov 7 2007Hi,
I am looking for recommendations for a business user tool to easily extract data from an Oracle database. Our requirements are:
- a user-friendly GUI point-and-click tool that will allow users to select columns, aggregations and filters and will automatically generate the SQL and retrieve a result set.
- will support free-form SQL as an alternative.
- can be hosted as a web application so that desktop install of software not required.
- supports unicode character sets.
- allows export of result set to Excel.
- the ability to save and/or share queries would be nice.
If you're familiar with Hummingbird's BI Query, something similar to this might do the trick. Graphs and charts are not required, we just need data retrieval.
Many thanks for your help,
Peter
