Useful but sometimes clunky
What do you like best about the product?
I like that, when I know precisely what I want, I can accurately and completely retrieve information using reports. It is remarkably fast and effective when I use it in the exact right ways.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really do not like not being able to pull multiple reports simultaneously. If I use the search bar to find a report and have already run one, I have to close the previous report in order to pull a different report of the same type.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The information that I pull is very fluid and has a lot of moving parts, so Cognos (in the ways that I use it—there are other ways at my organization) really serves to take a slice of that information at a specific moment.
Very good software to manage budgets and forecast. MI good for decision making
What do you like best about the product?
Reporting software is easy to use and easy to train staff on. Reports give considerable detail which can be exported and manipulated to justify key decisions. Simple to run and compatable with office software.
What do you dislike about the product?
Reports can be slow to run depending on the size. Reporting software could have prompts to where trainees have made a mistake and the report won't run. Failing that more detailed instructions for new staff.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Key reconciliations made to the forecast on a monthly basis. Reports allow us to capture all elements of data, ensuring we have covered all accruals in our actual s.

Its definitely not easy to set up, it actually took a lot of time to install it and so. Definitely need formal training and people who are not well versed with SQL will find it difficult to set it up. Price is also a con especially for small startups.
