Initially, it wasn’t so user friendly. Took longer training that I hoped but it’s a less of a headache than the last software we were using Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IBM Cognos Controller solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am working in business management and doing budget analysis to make sure we are funded for all our networks. IBC Cognos Controller gives me the benefit of doing all that outside of excel. All the formulas i previously had to create are not needed with this software. I am able to keep track of the budgets and forecasts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
