One of the most comprehensive and user-friendly analytics software
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to connect with multiple data sources that are not only structured but also unstructured is one of the strengths of Cognos Analytics. Consequently, it is highly flexible and enables deeper analysis of various data which comes from different sources. The drag and drop interface for creating visualizations is also very intuitive and easy to use, even for those who are not technically savvy.
Another thing that I found really useful while using the software was having the dashboard feature. It allows you to monitor key performance indicators in real time while still showing the entire data at a glance. This comes handy when you need to make snap decisions or detect tendencies that require attention.

Versatile and resourceful analytics tool that delivers.
What do you like best about the product?
In an effort to better understand our data we started using this tool after trying a couple of other tools. Out of the box the tool is relatively easy to use. The interface is user friendly, and depending on your previous experience, is relatively easy to learn. Implementation is not too difficult, depending on your environment and knowledge, but make sure you have the computing power. The tool is pretty rich in features, and can be used daily as easily as any other tool. Able to analyze a variety of datasets. Many reporting features.

The tool appears to be computing resource-intensive, gobling up CPU cycles. If you don't have a powerfull enough computer, it can be a little frustrating. It does not work with all web browsers, so integration may be a little challenging.

What do you dislike about the product?
I think you need the graphics to be editable.
Other times, we have had problems with performance
On the other hand, I do not see a clear privacy control (Anyone can see all the information on a Dashboard), it would be very important to be able to hide fields from different users
