BSP MetaManager Competitors

Cognos Community!

I've got a random question here and we are evaluating and hoping to purchase BSPs Metamanager to help simplify Cognos administration in our multi-server environment.

Our steering committee has asked for at least 3 competitors to evaluate against and sadly I can only think of 1 in Motio PI.

Searching Google has not helped and I assume there has to be another competitor out there.

I know we can do some of this natively by building SDKs but I'd like to just reference another tool.

Any thoughts or feedback?

thanks,
kado

You've already listed the two product options I know of. The only other option I can think of is coding your own solution using your favorite programming language and the Cognos SDK. It would take you many (many) months of coding to get the full capabilities those tools provide, though.

It's the age-old question - build or buy.

Cheers!
