Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cognos Analytics
We use IBM Cognos Analytics across our company. We use to do ad hoc reporting and automated reporting on our core system.
- Automates reporting
- Enables precise reporting from database
- Enables users to share reports easily
- The user interface is slow to move from screen to screen.
- I wish there was a search function to find our data elements in the data warehouse.
- It would be helpful to have more clear error messages that you could better use to determine what needs to be changed.
- Easier access to data - there are reports we would not have been able to generate without Cognos.
- The report scheduling saves lots of time each month. At least 20 hours per month.
- We have been able to catch errors that have saved our company $250,000.
IBM Cognos [Analytics] is offered through our core system provided, Fiserv. It is integrated with our loan, deposit, and customer information systems which is the primary reason it works best for us. Power BI seems to have a better user interface and visualization functionality, but the integration to our core data systems is key.
We have not used these features.
We have 10 users and they all have the same security access, so this functionality has not been critical for us.
