Reporting

Reporting from Cognos, an IBM company, lets you author and distribute every report type: high-volume production reports, individual ad hoc queries, widely distributed business reports, centrally authored reports with self-service customization, and more. Draw on any data source. Rely on a single metadata layer.

The result: higher user adoption, better decisions across the organization, and the ability to respond to threats and opportunities.

• Gain alignment with a single, reliable version of the truth -Common data definitions means you spend less time debating the numbers and more time deciding what to do.
• Connect with all data sources - Don't limit yourself with proprietary reporting packages that do part of the job. Author reports across multiple data sources. Get a head start on integrated performance management.
• Make the right decisions...faster -Timely reports and self-service reporting give you the information you need, when you need it.
• Meet the information needs of all users -Deliver information over the Web, on mobile devices, through common interfaces like Microsoft Office. Give people information the way they want to see it.

Analysis
