Cognos for a School District

  • February 13, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Cognos has a strong "engine" that is able to manage our student and school data for a school District that is over 100 000 students. We have used Cognos as a reporting tool to support our focus on continuous improvement using data-drivenm decision-making.
What do you dislike about the product?
I bvelieve Cognos has the engine of a BMW. However, for report writers and users of the product, it needs to be more user-friendly and have more flexibility to support a more 21st century look and feel to it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Supporting our end-users (school principals and central leaders) in accessing data to inform decisions specific to programming, school planning and interventions
