Kyoto University of Foreign Studies, an educational institution, introduced a new workflow system in addition to opening up its financial system. Using DataSpider International, it built a foundation in about one month for extracting the data necessary for Institutional Research (IR), which collects, stores, and analyzes information on the university's activities to facilitate decision-making.
"Database extraction, mapping, and other operations are all organized into menus, and by simply connecting them, we were able to build the system without writing any SQL, without any programming. Without DataSpider International, it would have been impossible to build the current infrastructure in the first place.
