SAN FRANCISCO --(Business Wire)-- Business Objects (Nasdaq:BOBJ) (Euronext Paris ISIN code: FR0004026250 - BOB), the world's leading provider of business intelligence (BI) solutions, today announced that National University of Health Sciences has selected crystalreports.com to easily access and share critical information with decision makers across the campus. With crystalreports.com, the University can leverage business intelligence on demand to centrally manage and distribute data. This helps administrators improve performance for its student services including registration, financial aid, housing, and student accounts.



National University of Health Sciences, an Illinois-based leader in health sciences education, trains professionals in chiropractic, acupuncture, naturopathy, massage therapy, and biomedical sciences. The University recently deployed a comprehensive student and campus administration system from Three Rivers Systems and uses Crystal Reports(R) XI to extract and report on data within the system. National University of Health Sciences uses crystalreports.com to securely share Crystal reports and extend the value of Crystal Reports XI across the university.

"Last year all data sharing was done departmentally -- we had no enterprise system but now crystalreports.com enables us communicate centrally and in real-time," said Keith R. Werosh, University Registrar at National University of Health Sciences. "We are a small organization on a tight technology budget. That's why crystalreports.com made so much sense. It took our IT staff about ten minutes to get crystalreports.com up and running. The solution has an extremely easy user interface so our staff can sign up and get information simply, regardless of their technical expertise. People are excited that they can get important information right away and by themselves. The new crystalreports.com is a great enhancement to the existing Business Objects solutions, like Crystal Reports XI."

Business Objects provides the National University of Health Sciences with better insight into all student-related information. Crystal Reports XI enables administrators to analyze how many prospective student inquiries the University receives, which geographic regions the requests come from, how people heard about the University, and which programs they are interested in. With crystalreports.com, any authorized staff member can access these reports. The University uses that information to better predict course demand and ensure they are adequately staffed, pinpoint regions where they should focus marketing efforts, and analyze which types of prospects turn into students. Staff can also use crystalreports.com to help identify students with academic issues early, so they can solve problems before they get out of hand.

National University of Health Sciences also uses Crystal Reports XI and crystalreports.com to create and distribute reports that give executive management a better grasp on how the entire institution is performing. Business Objects helps executives evaluate total enrollment by college, attrition and enrollment trends amongst colleges, and general interest in different programs. These high-level reports show comparative progress at all of the colleges, how overall performance maps to the University's future goals, and help executive management make decisions that benefit the university as a whole.

Before using Business Objects, information silos existed within the various departments and administrators were not able to gain a comprehensive view of student-related data. Data was managed on Excel spreadsheets that each department maintained individually, which meant accessing and sharing data was both difficult and time consuming. Now, with crystalreports.com, the University can leverage information from the enterprise-wide system to produce a report, post it on the web, and allow authorized staff to view information in a secure environment. Because the University has standardized on one BI solution, they have ensured that all staff are using a consistent, accurate version of the data.
