Asset managers need to react to dynamic market conditions and a fast-paced world in real-time, increasing their reliance on flexible and familiar tools like spreadsheets, databases and other End User Computing (EUC) applications in the front office. Add to this the normal business functions of finance, tax and accounting where EUCS are often used to consolidate or reconcile data, creating the need to manage the EUC environment in a manner that reduces risks with minimal end user impact.

From creating an inventory of all the EUCs in your organization and identifying the most important files, to detecting errors and providing a visual map of data dependencies, our tools provide on-going monitoring and control of your most important EUCs.
