New ways to interact with your data using Cognos Analytics 11.1.5

The latest release of IBM Cognos Analytics is packed full of exciting new ways to interact with and visualize your vital business data. Often, you need to tell a story by painting a picture of your data, both in the form of visualizations and with different ways for users to interact with data. Cognos Analytics 11.1.5 has your back to deliver on both of these.

By participating in this webinar, you will learn how Cognos Analytics improves self-service capabilities with time-saving enhancements to dashboarding and data preparation.

Key benefits include:

• Time savings with ability to show members in an OLAP or relational data tree: You can now expand fields in the metadata tree to see individual values or members and quickly add these to a visualization.
• Ease and speed in getting to the answers you need with dashboard to dashboard drill-through: Create drill-through definitions to use a dashboard as a target. When you drill-through to another dashboard, the content of the visualization in your source dashboard is used to filter the target dashboard.
• Enhancements to crosstab: Delight your Microsoft Excel gurus with familiar features from your favorite spreadsheet interface, like showing/hiding columns, customizing between null values and missing values, and more.
• Expanded range of visualization options with support for schematics in reporting: Work in the airline, manufacturing, entertainment or shipping business? Now you can use Cognos Analytics to plot data on top of seating charts, floor plans and more, to help you see the individual parts that go into your data analysis.
• Faster data prep with AI enhancements: It is now faster and easier to create data modules with system-provided suggestions of the best tables to use. An interactive word cloud shows the keywords you are looking for and makes it easy to select the tables for your module.
