Xcelsius XL Transforms Business Presentations; Sets New Standard for Interactive Data Presentations and Excel Dashboards In PowerPoints, PDFs and Web Sites

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 18, 2005--Infommersion, the industry leader in data visualization software, has announced the launch of Xcelsius XL, an entirely new product line for the creation of spreadsheet-based dashboards and interactive data presentations. Xcelsius XL allows individual business users to transform static Excel spreadsheets into engaging presentations, dynamic charts and graphs, and interactive Excel dashboards, using point-and-click technology.

With Xcelsius XL's Dynamic Documents(TM) feature, business users can easily share presentations and dashboards with colleagues, through one-click integration of their 'live' Xcelsius models into PowerPoint slides, Adobe PDF documents(1), Web portals and Outlook emails. Xcelsius presentations retain their 'live' interactivity within the documents. For example, a financial executive in a budgeting meeting could perform live, 'what-if' analysis from within a PowerPoint presentation, helping meeting attendees understand the financial impact of various business decisions.

“Xcelsius XL embeds both data and 'what-if' controls into PowerPoint presentations and therefore is adding a whole new dimension to data visualization and business collaboration.”

"Current presentation software is primarily centered on the display of static graphical charts and doesn't really support meaningful, real-time 'what-if' analysis," said Steve Weissman, president of Kinetic Information LLC. "Xcelsius XL embeds both data and 'what-if' controls into PowerPoint presentations and therefore is adding a whole new dimension to data visualization and business collaboration."

Xcelsius XL also includes Visual Modeling(TM), an exclusive feature that allows users to analyze multiple 'what-if' scenarios and predict the impact that business decisions could have on overall performance. With Visual Modeling, users can create Excel dashboards that enable executives to explore a company's potential financial future, in addition to examining past performance.

"Thirty million PowerPoint presentations are given every day. An Xcelsius XL presentation is the one that will stand out," said Santiago Becerra, CEO and co-founder of Infommersion. "Xcelsius XL ensures that presenters will truly engage and persuade their audiences. And it goes far beyond just presentations, allowing users to create dynamic Web pages, interactive PDFs and powerful, Excel dashboards with 'what if' capabilities."

The Xcelsius XL software line includes two editions, Standard and Professional. Xcelsius XL Standard is an entry-level data visualization tool that enables users to create innovative presentations using a variety of graphical components and multiple 'skins' to customize the presentation look and feel. Xcelsius XL Professional provides all the functionality of Standard, as well as advanced features such as drilldown charts, one-click export to PDF and additional Excel function support. Xcelsius XL Professional also includes expandability options, giving users the ability to add-on new components, skins and functionality, as they become available.

Pricing begins at $195 for Xcelsius XL Standard and $495 for Xcelsius XL Professional. Special educational licenses and multiple-user packages are also available. For complete details and pricing information, please visit www.xcelsius.com.
