InfoSurfer is a unique end-user reporting tool that lets non-technical employees locate and view data by simply "browsing" through a list of prepared data descriptions -- a process GanyMede describes as "data surfing". It allows untrained, non-technical users to create and print simple ad hoc queries and reports in a matter of minutes without requiring any knowledge of the database or its internal structure.

InfoSurfer supports any type of database that can be accessed through ODBC, including MS-Access, MS SQL Server, MS Excel, dBase, Oracle and others. Once an ODBC connection to a database has been established, the InfoSurfer administrator uses the InfoSurfer - Admin program to enter simple English-language descriptions of the database data into the DDI. Descriptions can be entered for some or all tables and columns (fields). Only those items described in the DDI are available to the end-user, so the administrator can choose to omit or obscure sensitive items from the "view" seen by the end-user.
