Last week we made our new EasyData website available to all users subscribed to our South African Economic Indicators data collections. Some of our users have been using EasyData for a long time, but the rest of you might be wondering what is EasyData? Essentially EasyData is a website designed to navigate and download Quantec data into Microsoft Excel effortlessly.
The EasyData website can be accessed in 2 ways, either sign in on our website or use our EasyData Add-In for Microsoft Excel which enables some of EasyData's best features. The Excel Add-In allows you to download time-series data into Excel, save the spreadsheet and come back at a later time and refresh your spreadsheet with the latest data points. There's no need to go back to the website and select your data again. You can simply click on the Add-In's refresh button and your spreadsheet will automatically be updated with the latest available data points.
Additional benefits of using EasyData are its speed, simplicity and intuitive user interface. Finding and downloading the data you need takes 3 easy steps. The website also allows you to apply frequency changes and percentage changes to any time-series in our South African Economic Indicators data collections.
If you're subscribed to our RSA and Global Economic Indicators database and you're ready to try out EasyData, then simply sign in or download the EasyData Add-In for Excel.
