IDV Solutions today announced a partnership with BizData, a provider of business intelligence solutions, expanding the presence of IDV's Visual Fusion software in the Australian market. Visual Fusion is innovative business intelligence software that unites data sources in a web-based, visual context for better insight and understanding. Using Bing Maps as a canvas, Visual Fusion uniquely ties together Microsoft’s BI stack—Excel, SharePoint, SQL Server—and presents it in Silverlight applications for the business user.

"IDV is excited to be partnering with BizData to expand Visual Fusion’s presence in the Australian market," said Jeff Hoedeman, VP International Partnerships at IDV. "BizData understands the value that Visual Fusion brings to their customer’s business intelligence initiatives."

BizData will offer Visual Fusion business intelligence solutions to its clients in fields that include financial services, manufacturing, utilities, and health services industries.

"We were looking for an interactive data visualization platform to complement our existing GIS and Business Intelligence solutions. Visual Fusion provides the ideal platform to provide a geographic and market context to business performance, in a way that business users can intuitively explore, discover and drill into without having to switch between applications. This is very much in line with our vision to deliver self-service spatial analytics and replace many of the labor intensive and disconnected static mapping solutions that many organizations have traditionally settled for,” said Nadav Rayman, Director of Sales and Marketing at BizData.
