Cognos A Leader In BI Reporting And Analysis Platforms

Cognos 8 Business Intelligence (BI) offers a single, strong BI reporting and analysis product for support of analytic and enterprise reporting. The product is strong in all three areas — analytic functionality, application development, and usability with comprehensive support for unification, internationalization, and open APIs, and strong support for OLAP, query, metadata, dashboards, and scorecards. Cognos is one of a growing number of vendors — including Actuate, Business Objects, Hyperion, Microsoft, and MicroStrategy — that offer both analytic and enterprise reporting capabilities. However, Cognos 8 BI is a completely new, Web-based product that incorporates much of the functionality from Cognos legacy BI products such as PowerPlay, Metrics Manager, Impromptu, ReportNet, and others. Based on our evaluation, Cognos is a leader in both analytic and enterprise reporting.
