DUNDAS GAUGE FOR SHAREPOINT NOW SHIPPING

SharePoint Designers Now Have Another Tool For Building Custom Digital Dashboards

October 3rd, 2007 (Toronto) - Dundas Data Visualization, a world leader in data visualization technologies, today announced the release of Dundas Gauge for SharePoint, the first set of advanced gauge components designed specifically for Microsoft's SharePoint portal technology.

Following on the heels of the previously released Dundas Chart for SharePoint, the new ground-breaking gauge product features comprehensive gauges, dials and knobs, complete with data analysis abilities. While utilized to represent data that simply can't be shown effectively in a chart format, Dundas Gauge for SharePoint is particularly beneficial when creating collaborative interactive dashboard applications.

"To better serve the world's SharePoint users, we've taken the Dundas Gauge core and wrapped it in a true Web Part for SharePoint," said Troy Marchand, President of Dundas Data Visualization. "It's perfect for SharePoint users who require the real-time monitoring of key performance indicators and other critical data - without having to use tools like Visual Studio."

Some of the product's key features include fully AJAX-enabled gauges (for updating a gauge at the client without postbacks), a new callback manager (for executing JavaScript on the client without refreshing the entire page), an assortment of 2D/3D frame styles and other customization capabilities. It also includes a property browser - allowing users to modify nearly all the properties - which is unique for a SharePoint Web Part.

Dundas Gauge for SharePoint is available now an can be purchased for $1999 (US) - single server license - from the Dundas website (www.dundas.com). A full-featured evaluation copy can also be downloaded from the site.
