"When we went looking for an internal reporting and business dashboard
solution to support OneView, we sought business intelligence software that not
only would be quick to deploy and affordable but also widely used by our
employees," commented Ricardo Amper, Amco CEO. "We looked at several
applications, including Business Objects' tools. We chose Tableau. Tableau's
solution is just unbeatable: it's fast and easy for IT to deploy and maintain,
it provides high return on our investment, management can finally see what's
happening across the company, and our people love how easy it is to produce
results. Tableau is the crown jewel of our mission-critical OneView
initiative."

Amco will deploy Tableau Desktop
(http://www.tableausoftware.com/products/desktop) and Tableau Server
(http://www.tableausoftware.com/products/server). Award-winning Desktop data
visualization software connects directly to data sources allowing people to
understand complex relationships through engaging and easy-to-understand
reports, business dashboards and visualizations. Award-winning Server extends
the functionality of Desktop to the Web, enabling entire organizations to
share, discover and participate with their data via a Web browser.

"The OneView project clearly shows that Amco recognizes the importance of
getting the right information in the right hands at the right time in order to
optimize business performance," said Tableau's CEO Christian Chabot
(http://www.tableausoftware.com/christian-chabot). "Tableau's time-to-value is
superior. IT can deploy and support it in hours, not weeks."
