Morgan Benjamin gains “Powered By IBM Cognos” accreditation for reporting software MB Context.
UK, October 9, 2008 (PRESSbooth.ORG) -- Business Intelligence (BI) consultancy Morgan Benjamin has received the highly regarded “Powered by IBM Cognos” accreditation for its report annotation software, MB Context. The accreditation is awarded to IBM Cognos Partners who deliver performance management solutions that combine IBM Cognos technology with deep domain expertise.
Powered by IBM Cognos Softwareis an elite program for partners who deliver solutions focused on key areas, including industry groups, enterprise performance and system infrastructure, all with the objective of enabling and engaging their customers to better manage company performance. Members of Powered by IBM Cognos Software are seen as integral players in delivering fast, proven performance management solutions to Cognos customers.
David Morgan, product director at Morgan Benjamin said: “MB Context is our flagship product and has been developed to work exclusively within the IBM Cognos environment. Gaining this level of accreditation from IBM Cognos underlines the level of commitment we have in developing a product that solves a real need in the business intelligence environment.”
As technology enables organisations to gather, store and disseminate larger and larger amounts of data, ensuring that people can interpret the data correctly and interact with it faster becomes ever more key. MB Context allows users to share knowledge online and in real time and creates business intelligence that is tailored to the individual needs of the user. In recognition that contextual information is as important as the data on which it is based and should therefore be stored in the same way, MB Context also enables Cognos users to interact with reports and data, add context and share this information to customised groupings.
Key highlights of MB Context include: - Users can add insight to BI and store that data securely in the same location as the database - Offers the opportunity for users to interact with business processes by flagging documents actioned - Enhances compliance initiatives by enabling BI tools to support workflow - Gives individual Cognos users the ability to define the way categories relevant to them are grouped, removing the ‘one-size fits all’ approach to groupings and hierarchies - Removes the need to export reports from Cognos to Microsoft Excel, Word or PowerPoint in order to undertake the time-consuming and error-inducing manual management of the data - Offers a feedback option on reports – e.g. users can request adjustments such as listing customers in order of sales volume, filter enhancements, chart modifications or distribution list changes
