Bangalore: MAIA Intelligence, a leading provider of business intelligence (BI) software, has announced the availability of a license replacement program for customers and OEM partners of Cognos and Business Objects.
"The big three former independent BI players have fallen like dominos this year, aligning themselves with application/database vendors and trading market heft for independence," said Vikram Kole, Head - Marketing, MAIA Intelligence. "This presents a great opportunity for remaining independent players to capture the sizable segment of customers who prefer best-of-breed tools versus an all-in-one stack pushed by aggressive account teams selling everything from servers and databases to applications and services."
Customers of other BI vendors often switch to MAIA's 1KEY to benefit from the cost effective price point with increased performance, scalability, and data visualization that MAIA Intelligence offers. By migrating from its previous expensive solution to 1KEY, organizations can achieve greater efficiencies and faster access to the information they needed.
With 1KEY BI, all the business users right from managers to the operational staff, frontline executives to back office team get the power to define ad hoc reports with intuitive, highly interactive & user friendly interface coupled with multi formatted visually stunning & flexible data presentation layers.
"Historically and even currently companies have switched from Business Objects, Cognos to 1KEY when they ran out of their budgets for enterprise wide roll out of BI," said MAIA Intelligence CEO Sanjay Mehta. "Though affordability doesn't sound glamorous, it has major implications for a business intelligence reporting roll out. If a BI reporting system is expensive, it can't reach thousands of users inside the enterprise and beyond. Then it will be impossible to deliver the kinds of business intelligence solutions that enable organizations to renovate their business processes to reduce cost," he added.
The MAIA's License Replacement Program is applicable in India only.
