I don't want a model - Just give me a spreadsheet

Many EA stakeholders are comfortable with spreadsheets. The data is accessible, easily understood, and can be manipulated. Being able to filter and sort, and apply numerical and logical functions, as well as getting a single sheet view of a lot of complex data, helps to answer many questions.

eaSheets makes it easy to extract specific data from EA and deliver it in a familiar format to stakeholders, so they can edit, comment, and understand. Choose exactly which data is included in the spreadsheet with the simple eaSheets interface, and minimize confusion, hiding unnecessary details.

As the spreadsheets are derived from the richness of our n-dimensional EA models, they can show any aspect of the model easily – not just elements, but related elements and relationships, collected from packages or diagrams, and if necessary filtered by element type or stereotype.

Once the data has been reviewed, it’s easy to save everything, all the changes, straight back into EA. Keeping our models accurate and giving our stakeholders increased confidence in the content.
