Cognos Events - feedback request

[cognos2424]

Hi All,

New to Cognoise. I am an IBMer and hoping to gain some valuable feedback. Aside from THINK, what type of event would you like to see as a customer? Webinar? In Person? Podcast? Any specific topics you'd like covered (if not Cognos, what else). I will take any feedback you have in hopes that we can improve our offerings and sessions for you. Thanks in advance.

Opportunities for direct customer feedback would be nice. As a consultant I've experienced a lot of pushback against the new version. There is a sense that IBM is disregarding the needs of customers, and acting re-actively to the market, changing features without regard to how they impact existing environments.

Also, some love for Cognos bloggers would be great.

Ah, Paul. Lovely CognosPaul.
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimmed;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,
Nor shall death brag thou wand'rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to Time thou grow'st.
So long as men can write JavaScript, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

:)

MF.

A big mass of hot air teeming with flies and the stench of sweat? It's not the first time I've been told I'm full of hot air.

Thanks Paul. Something such as a customer survey on each version?

Maybe a customer and business partner survey? It's the consultants that have to suffer building the reports with the new version.

Though not a survey but from what I have seen, 3 companies I worked with in the past are moving away from Cognos. There are also fewer jobs for Cognos and companies who are buying new BI licenses tend to prefer Power BI and Tableau. Anyone else wants to chip in here?
