IBM have recently announced the release of IBM Cognos Express – “…an all-in-one business intelligence and planning solution specifically designed and priced for midsized clients.”
Targeting the mid-market space, the product appears to be a direct response to the success of the SAP Business Objects EDGE product. Perhaps, confirming that the mid-market space is a vast potential untapped market, IBM Cognos have released their product in three flavours:
- Reporter – for ad hoc reporting
- Advisor – for dashboarding KPI’s
- Xcelerator – in memory analytics
