    IBM
    Information Server is extremely useful to replace manual developments that require a lot of coding effort. It significantly increases the productivity of the initial development and the future maintenance of the processes since it has a visual development environment with self-documentation.

    Intellicus makes complex data analysis easy through the use
    of Powerful Business Intelligence tools.
    Their dashboard capabilities provide a flexible and efficient way to
    deliver information and analytic tools to users without the need for highly
    technical skills.



    Non-technical users are not exposed to simplified ways to
    build data query logic. This is a tricky
    requirement to satisfy though, because of the level of complexity that is
    inherent within data mining and analysis.

    • Connectivity Packs such as Pack for SAP Application are a little pricey.
    • It is confusing for new developers the possibility of developing jobs using different execution engines such as Parallel or Server.
