Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cognos Analytics

IBM Cognos Analytics with Watson is an essential tool in all departments of the organization; due to its Artificial Intelligence capacity, it is capable of keeping everything in order from the beginning to the end. At all times, the tool creates a report of all the data in a structured way, knowing exactly the result that you want to evaluate and be fully resolved, which allows us to be connected to your control panel. This product integrates easily with different tools, making the whole process easier.; It also has a great team of technicians to help.

Pros

  • Full data reporting and analysis all the time.
  • Artificial Intelligence of great help for business performance.
  • Easily integrates with other tools.
  • You can count on this scalable platform.
  • Fast in data recovery.
  • It has a good price.
  • Quality technical team.

Cons

  • Many times the view of the videos on the web is not good, it needs to improve.
  • Graph more, for better understanding.
  • Exponential increase in productivity in direct relationship with customers.
  • Evaluation of accurately extracted reports.
  • Direct savings in the IT department and other departments.
If it is possible for all users to clearly understand the generated reports, the information panels are easy even for non-technical staff; it is not necessary to ask for help to export information to components or modules that are required, and it is also easy to change the location and report features.
Documents and reports are shared in all departments only with Latin permissions for password management and encryption when required; there is a person in charge in each department who has the authorization; in the same way, this product has additional security features with advanced verification. Depending on the license of the modules purchased, security is also supported with other IBM software that we have integrated.
Excel is the most used tool for reading data because it is a well-known product by all the staff and because a large part of the financial documents is handled with Excel. I particularly like to classify reports into more than one format so that they can be opened on different devices without having to have additional file readers.
