need help understanding the pros and cons of COGNOS REPORTNEt with Baan.

we are in the process of evaluation. appreciate nay headsup.

Pros: Very powerful product, feature-rich, household name
Cons: Expect entry cost at least $100k, no easy report upgrade path from Impromptu/Powerplay, have to buy users in 100's, may not be a user tool.

I suggest you also consider Cyberscience - I saw a press release on the BWU website last week. I've heard good things, but let us know what you find out if you do call them - thanks.

If I may ... let me suggest that you include Profitbase in your list of alternatives to Cognos. Please visit their website at www.profibase.com and tell them you were referred by Clifftree www.clifftree.com.
Thank you.
