Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cognos Analytics

IBM Cognos Analytics has been used for several years, and it helps us achieve more than just BI goals. From commissioning to business insight to strategical planning, IBM Cognos Analytics is a very powerful tool and I can't wait to see what's coming next!

Pros

  • Static reporting
  • Semantic modeling
  • Data connection

Cons

  • AI integration
  • Easy data integration helped during company fusion
  • Costs are stable and easy to predict for long term projects
Static reports are crucial for some use cases where we have to share some high level summarized data to a large network of brokers that are not a part of the company,
The assistants help using natural language to achieve data valorisation goals faster
