DATAWATCH MONARCH

SELF SERVICE DATA PREPARATION

FOR ALL YOUR DATA
Up to 80% of all time spent on analytics is consumed by preparing the data. Data
is never perfect and most of the time you need to clean, enrich, and join multiple
data sets to gain meaningful insight. Datawatch Monarch is the industry standard
self-service data preparation solution that is used today by 93 of the Fortune 100
companies to manipulate, filter, enrich, blend and combine disparate data sets.

ACCESS ALL DATA INCLUDING MULTI-STRUCTURED

Most of the time your source data is diverse and rarely presents itself in a form
perfectly ordered and ready for analysis. Compounding matters is the fact that the
data sources being used to run your business are rarely accessible or in the format
you need to perform analytics:

 ata comes from outside the four walls of your company (Invoices, POs,
D
PDFs, etc.)

 ata behind your trusted operational systems are not readily accessible or
D
requires IT intervention to make it usable

Data is available only in reports, due to complex, one-time calculations

 ata types, like EDI streams, machine data, or HTML can be too complex to
D
decompose and reconstitute for analytics

BI systems were built in isolation, and performing cross-system

reporting/analytics requires a large integration project

Monarch works with both relational and multi-structured data including support
for a wide range of formats including PDF, XML, HTML, text, spool and ASCII files.
Access data from invoices, sales reports, balance sheets, customer lists, inventory,
logs and more. The system is easy to use, allowing you to quickly select any data
source and automatically convert it into structured data for analysis.

ADVANCED DATA MASKING

Easily and reliably remove or obscure confidential data such as customer
information, medical records and employee IDs with intuitive redaction capabilities.
This feature allows you to safely distribute reports to partners and customers, even
in heavily regulated industries such as healthcare and financial services, without
compromising customer and employee privacy.

ASTONISHINGLY EASY TO USE

From the accounting team to IT professionals, Monarch is easy on everyone. For
example, tasks such as extracting data from a PDF is as simple as clicking a button,
thanks to smart auto-parsing and trapping functionality, and users can easily filter
out data they dont find useful. Customers suggest that by making things so easy,
Monarch has saved their organizations thousands of hours of modeling and data
extraction time.

DATAWATCH MONARCH
USE WITH ANY BI TOOL
Your prepared data can be saved in a variety of native BI formats so you can
immediately visualize your results not just in Datawatch Designer, but in other
popular BI tools such as Tableau, Qlik and Excel. You can also share and reuse all of
your data preparation processes with other Monarch users.
