Self Service Applications
Self Service applications can provide 60% to 70% of the Business Intelligence functionality needed by an organization. WebFOCUS™ is a best of breed solution for Self Service Applications.  It possess unsurpassed data access capability coupled with the most powerful report engine available.  

WebFOCUS™ makes it easy to add the latest web technologies and to provide a custom look and feel to the applications.  

In addition WebFOCUS™ allows a user to run a long report 'in the background' and then be notified when it's done.  It has a powerful scheduling engine that allows the Enterprise to run reports in batch, burst them and then stage them.  This means that it's easy to set up an application with a combination of static, pre-run reports with dynamic reports.  This is often an optimal solution.  Summary reports that require the system to process a large amount of data can be run in batch.  Reports that are looking at specific, small sets of data (for example activity on a particular customer) can be run dynamically.
