Yes, we are working hard to “Tame Your Ocean of Data,” here at Ocean Data Systems.  Too hard in fact and our newsletter has fallen behind.  So much to tell since the last!  There’s a new release of Dream Report.  As usual, Dream Report’s in the news.  We need your VOTE, and so much more.

 

Dream Report 4.81 is released

While primarily a maintenance release and available to all 4.8 users, you know that we always add in new functionality to sweeten the pot.  This is no exception! This release includes major productivity enhancements in the form of exports, imports and search and replace.  If you’re scaling Dream Report across equipment, production lines or sites, then you’ll love these new enhancements.  There’s much more.  Please have a look at our data sheet –https://dreamreport.net/blog/dream-report-4-81-is-released/

Control Engineering Magazine has included Dream Report as a finalist for their Engineers’ Choice Award!  Please give us your vote, and enlist a colleague.  Each and every vote does count and voting ends soon.  We would love to win this award for Dream Report and you’ll know that you played a part.  https://dreamreport.net/blog/dream-report-nominated-for-2018-engineers-choice-award/
