Who Can Use PRISM Analytics?
â€Anyone can reap the benefits of PRISM Analytics as an end user leveraging Analysis, Author Dashboards or Reports, as no scripting knowledge is required to use these tools. However, running Data Manager requires an understanding of SQL and the structure of the source database.
