Is there a good OLAP reporting tool5 Thread starter eas03 Start date Jan 6, 2001 Status Not open for further replies. #1 Is there a good OLAP reporting tool that can be used for both Oracle and SQL-Server?We are trying to combine data from multiple databases and then roll up the data. We want slice and dice capabilities as well as general Key Performance Indicator reports. I work for a software company that wants to integrate this type of reporting into their current product. Our product can use multiple Oracle or SQL-Server databases for data storage. We don't want a product that users would have to interact with. We have looked at Knosys since they have an API we can incorporate it into our product. This is for an enterprise solution for numerous divisions using a database (Oracle or SQL-Server). Are there side-by-side comparisons somewhere on the web, so I can review the different products? All I see is this type of information offered for $2,000.00+.This is a new area for us and I need help. #21 Please visit for the best bi/olap tool.Cognos and even microsoft used it for their products!Regards,Marco #22 hi Folks, take a look at the review on Panorama NovaView e-BI, from the Intelligent Enterprise: #23 Hi Guys,All of these are more then suitable but this shouldn't be a rat race to promote products. Most newer reporting/analysis/datamining tools offer the ability to access multiple sources for OLAP so it all comes down to more personal preference. The first thing you really need to think about is the scale of the reporting and whether you will be providing internet based reporting as these are two key differences in the majority of the products currently available. Good Luck, sounds liek an interesting project. #24 I'm using a program called Excel 2002. Allows for familiar analysis on the fly, charting, printing reports and no week long training classes. Users love it. Interfaces easily with prebuilt sql server 2k analysis cubes, though I haven't had to try it with Oracle. #25 You can no longer buy Segate info. The company is no longer called Seagate it is now called crystal decisions. Info has been renamed crystal enterprise. The tool that has replaced olap for info is called crystal analysis. It works well and is based on the same tool that was used on info. Version 7.5 was the last version of info and the current offering is version 8.5 with version 9 to

CognosPolzovatel Guest Logged Greetings: We are currently deciding whether or not we need the Analysis Studio. From what I've learned, Analysis Studio is designed for multidimensional analysis. Hence, the Studio can only work with multidimensional data. Since we currently do not have such packages/data setup, our Analysis Studio only contains the Cognos sample packages (i.e, GO data warehouse). If we only have an operational data store and a transactional DB at our place, is it event necessary for us to purchase the Analysis Studio? What does Analysis Studio provide that Report Studio does not? When I look at the interface, to me, it seems that Report Studio can accomplish the same thing (crosstabs, etc.) Could you please provide your experience with this tool and how it has helped you? Thanks. You are correct, in that Analysis Studio is used only with Dimensionally Modeled or OLAP sources. If you have none, then AS would not be needed.Report Studio is more geared to Professional Report Authoring and can provide Analysis-like reports, similar to an Analysis Studio report. Even if you do have OLAP or DMR, I would argue that Report Studio is still all you would need in general.hth... if you dont have a dimensional package there is no use of analysis studio AS is a tool for users that like pivot tables. Very good is the new cafe (Cognos AddIn for Excel). You can easily create our reports directly in excel. This has been a giant stept for our excel-power-users, as they don't have to switch from Excel and log into a webbased software. As the name implies, Analysis Studio is meant for analytical purposes.Sure, you can achieve the same thing by using Report Studio, however, the efficiency of drilling up and down, swapping rows and columns, nested crosstab etc, it cant beat Analysis StudioNot to mention, if you have OLAP cube, you wont be hitting the Databases, thus performance wise, it's faster.However, for display and user graphic, hands down to Report Studio.And again, as the name implies, Report Studio is meant for reporting. Creating reports in business formats is not something Analysis Studio can do.
