VVI^® today announced version 9.0.10 of its Vvidget Pro^™ graphing system. Ed Van Vliet, CEO of VVI, made this statement:

"Vvidget Pro is the most advanced and powerful reporting and data visualization system available. The newest release adds three dimensional surface and scatter plots with features such as real-time 3D rotation, surface normal shading and depth queuing, printing, PDF exporting and drag and drop to text editors, mail and other applications. All available in a breathtaking and powerful GUI layout application, a high-transaction report server, data-oriented wizard interfaces, Interface Builder drag and drop palette, and a cream-of-the-crop programming API and framework design. When Bud Tribble, now V.P. of Software Technology at Apple, saw it he said it was the most exciting piece of software of its kind that he had seen.

Customers use Vvidget Pro to display data from Oracle database servers, Reuters stock feeds, National Instruments DAQ cards, and a wide range of other sources both commercial and proprietary. For example, Vvidget Pro has been used by customers to control laboratory instruments and display results in real time, monitoring batch chemical processes with data acquired from multiple sensors, display all the trades on an entire stock exchange, such as the NYSE, in real time as they happen and report on financial portfolios. Those are just a few ways customers take advantage of Vvidget Pro.

VVI made the first graphing application for Mac OS X, Apple shipped it with Mac OS X's predecessor, Rhapsody operating system, and our reporting software and systems are based on over a decade of innovative software design and customer use studies and is continually improved. It is designed with a component architecture so very specific layouts and formats can be assembled and integrated into customer's operations which provides results that look and perform better than others, which is, afterall, why they want Vvidget Pro. It also comes with a significant number of pre-assembled form, report, chart and graph types available through the programming API and through the various end user tools."
