From static numbers to a live report
Most teams don't lack data, they lack a fast way to see it. Numbers sit scattered across spreadsheets, CRMs, and internal systems. Every new chart means exporting a CSV, pinging a developer, or waiting on whoever owns the reporting tool. By the time a report is ready, the decision it was supposed to inform has already been made without it.
The same data renders as a live report, giving everyone a clear view of the latest information. Figures update automatically on schedule, so there’s no need to manually refresh, export, or resend files. Everyone with access opens the same current version, keeping reporting consistent and eliminating outdated or duplicate copies of spreadsheets.
Four things that make it work in practice
Each capability, and what it looks like in the product.
See patterns a table of numbers would hide
Choose from a wide range of chart, map, and widget types, from standard bar and line charts to gauges, heat maps, and geo maps, and customize colors, drill-downs, and filters without touching code. A report nobody can read doesn't get used.
-
Drag-and-drop chart builder, no SQL required for a first working visual
-
Drill-down and cross-filtering across every chart on the report
-
Conditional formatting and thresholds highlight what matters without a second look
Every data source, one report
Bold Reports connects to 15+ built-in data sources, relational databases, cloud data warehouses, NoSQL stores, and REST/OData services, plus 250+ additional systems through the CData driver library. Connect once through a shared data source, and every report built on it stays live.
-
Shared data sources, one configured connection reused across many reports
-
Credentials and access rules live in one place, not copied into each report
-
Cloud, Managed Private Cloud, or on-premises, the same connectors either way
Know what's happening now, not last week
Reports refresh automatically as underlying data changes, so operations and sales teams look at the current state of the business instead of last Monday's export. Set the refresh cadence per report, live streaming views for ops monitoring, scheduled refreshes for exec summaries.
-
Live data refresh, no manual re-export, no “is this the latest version?”
-
Role-based reports so each team sees its own metrics, updated automatically
-
Works for a single live ops screen or a finance team's daily-refresh KPI view
Built for the person who isn't a developer
Business users build their own reports with a drag-and-drop designer, no query, no data model, no ticket in the dev backlog. IT stays in control of data access and security; everyone else stops waiting on IT for a new chart.
-
Role-based and row-level security, so self-service isn't unrestricted access
-
Shared report templates so teams aren't rebuilding the same report
-
IT keeps visibility into what's published, without owning every request
Pick a data source
Choose an existing connection, no new query to write.
Drag fields onto the canvas
Build the layout visually, charts, tables, and filters snap into place.
Publish and share
The report is live for your team, with IT-controlled access underneath.
