SAP HANA BI Tool for pivot tables, charts, tabular reports
SeekTable is a self-service SAP HANA BI tool that allows users to create pivot tables,
charts, and flat table reports directly from SAP HANA databases:
- Live SAP HANA connection: report queries execute in real-time, meaning your operational reports always up-to-date (no need in refreshes).
- No ETL / zero data extraction: analyze massive datasets directly in your data warehouse, no data imports required.
- Designed for business users: Excel-like web interface enables non-IT users to perform fast data analysis and data visualization without writing SQL or exporting sensitive data.
- Governed data access: safely share common reports and data cubes with RLS. End-users queries are limited to configured data models (no direct SQL access to SAP HANA).
- On-premise reporting tool: self-hosted SeekTable meets strict corporate compliance and data governance requirements.
It supports fully isolated deployment environments to deliver real-time insights without your data ever leaving your internal network.
- Embedded BI: seamlessly integrate SeekTable published reports and dashboards directly into your web app.
Or embed the entire SeekTable app view to let them build their own reports directly inside your app.
- White-labeling: apply your own logo, branding, and UI styles to make SeekTable look exactly like your company's own in-house reporting solution.
