Business intelligence company, Cognos, has announced availability of the complete suite of enterprise analytic applications for Oracle eBusiness Suite.
Delivering the industry`s best breadth and depth, and fastest time to result for analytic applications, Cognos Analytic Applications provide a complete enterprise foundation of pre-packaged analytic applications for Oracle eBusiness Suite customers.
The new Cognos Analytic Applications for Oracle eBusiness Suite include analyses of sales, general ledger, accounts receivable, accounts payable, inventory, and procurement.
Cognos Analytic Applications are pre-built business analysis and reporting solutions that extend the value of existing investments in ERP and other operational systems. The result is a single, integrated, 360-degree view of business operations built upon a common foundation for enterprise-wide business performance management.
"Cognos continues to demonstrate solid analytic applications momentum. Building on a proven foundation and customer successes, Cognos is now delivering a full suite for both JD Edwards and Oracle customers. These extensible applications can also enfold information from many line-of-business and process applications," says Bob Moran, research vice president and managing director, Decision Support Research at the Aberdeen Group.
He says that many analytic applications are merely buckets of reports. In contrast, Cognos analytic applications, which include numerous valuable reports, are based on substantial business and technical content.
Although one benefit of having this domain and technical expertise right in the box is fast implementation time, the greater merit is the role Cognos analytic applications can play in paving the way for truly coordinated organisations.
Cognos Analytic Applications for Oracle eBusiness Suite give organisations insight into business strengths, trouble spots, and bottlenecks across the entire company.
"By giving decision-makers a means to rapidly access operational data, perform analysis, and answer key questions, Cognos Analytic Applications give businesses the single best way to make better, fact-based business decisions," he says.
