I've worked with it and used the tool. It is a very powerful tool; however, it is not easy to use at all. There is a steep learning curve. Their dog-and-pony show will gloss over the fact that only specialists can use it. It is not a tool for the general end user.

Good afternoon listers.
I just found out that I will be meeting with the sales "dog and pony" folks from Cognos on Tuesday. Have any of you worked with this product? What should I be aware of? What plusses/minuses should I look for? Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks

Rodd Holman
