Marking Cognos Report Studio

[arsenie22]

Hello all Cognoiser,
In our Business Intelligence course at the university, I have as assignment to evaluate the Cognos Report Studio.
Because I don’t have any experience on this software and no installation available, I read books, but that’s still not sufficient. That’s why I’m asking for your help on this forum. Hopping it would be funny for you to mark some characteristics of Cognos.
This is how to mark it:
-   Excellent
-   Very Good
-   Good
-   Passing
-   Fail

Here are the grouped criteria:
-   Group 1: Datenhandling
1.   Data Conditioning
2.   Data Compactness
3.   Adaptability to Communication System

-   Group 2: Data Processing
1.   Access to Process & System Data
2.   Effects of User Inputs
3.   Semantic Level of Data Consistency
4.   Level of Automation of Data Analyses
5.   Data Consistency Checks

-   Group 3: View / Presentation
1.   Technical Views
2.   External Tool Integration
3.   Hierarchical Structure
4.   Consistency
5.   Customization
6.   Adaptability

-   Group 4: Know-How Reuse
1.   Business (Strategy)  Know-how Integration
2.   Technical Know-how Integration
3.   Identification of reusable informations
4.   Reporting
5.   Decision Support

I would be very glad if you could help me evaluating this software.
Thank you in advance for your sharing
