Cognos next month will release another product that increases companies business intelligence quotient, ReportNet. A Web-based reporting application that competes with products such as Crystal Decisions Crystal Reports, ReportNet makes it easy to develop and deliver business reports. Via Web services standards and a metadata layer that shields users from database complexity, ReportNet can pull information from various data sources and integrate with existing security infrastructure. During a demonstration of the product, I was impressed with the speed and ease with which ReportNet built reports on the fly. Pricing for ReportNet will be announced Sept. 9, at the products launch. eWEEK Labs plans a full review in a future issue.
