Siebel Disconnected Analytics offers the ability to use Siebel Analytics dashboards while disconnected from the corporate network. A Disconnected Analytics application is a package of Siebel Analytics dashboards with supporting data and metadata.
Disconnected Analytics applications are usually organized according to business areas. For example, your Siebel Analytics administrator might make one application covering sales and another covering marketing campaigns. You can keep more than one Disconnected Analytics application on your laptop, although only one application can be active and running at one time.
Using the Disconnected Analytics Application Manager, you can update and administer the Disconnected Analytics applications on your laptop.

You can download data from the network to your laptop and save reports you have created separately from group data and reports.
