Although I’ve worked in a number of different industry verticals, I’m currently focused on the Utilities vertical. I’m always on the look out for great dashboards and I found some! I want dashboards that combine the best features of Xcelsius together with amazing usability and depth of function. My latest discovery is from ProMorphics. ProMorphics is a services organization and they have been a member of the SAP Ecosystem for a number of years. I recently got a chance to view the results of some of their compelling dashboards and the results speak for themselves.
When I spoke with ProMorphics they talked about their commitment to listen to the customer and to go the extra mile. They’ve been extremely successful at using Xcelsius as a prototyping/rapid development tool so that they can get feedback and turn the results around extremely quickly.
Their sample dashboards focus on these three areas:
- Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S)
- Field Operations
- Sales and Financial Performance (Peek Performance)
If you work in a utility related industry, you may want to engage ProMorphics and leverage their expertise. It’s not surprising that 70% of their business comes from repeat customers.

Although ProMorphics does not allow you to download their .xlf files, you can view the dashboards via the following website:

Conclusion
It’s always good to see partners who exploit all the features within a solution. In the screenshot above, you can see how they have built Google Map integration as well as a custom calendar control. These are examples of custom Xcelsius controls written in Flex. I saw example after example of custom controls, developed to make sure they gave the customer exactly what they wanted. If you engage ProMorphics in a project, they will also make these custom Xcelsius controls available to you. Some partners like Centigon Solutions do allow you to buy their Xcelsius controls separately but ProMorphics currently does not.
