What is IBM Business Analytics?
IBM is helping clients successfully navigate the age of the unexpected with IBM Business Analytics, an enterprise-grade, trusted, scalable and integrated analytics solution portfolio. It streamlines and extends enterprise reporting, self-service analysis and planning strategies across the organization to empower teams to better predict and shape future outcomes.
With the new IBM Business Analytics Enterprise, they are bundling together Planning Analytics with Watson, Cognos Analytics with Watson and the new Analytics Content Hub. This enables a single point of entry for planning, budgeting, forecasting, dashboarding and reporting. Now you aren’t just breaking down departmental and data silos, but analytic silos, too.
The capabilities of bundled business analytics
Planning Analytics with Watson addresses integrated business planning in extended planning and analysis (xP&A) including FP&A, HR, S&OP, Marketing, Project/IT planning and more. It excels in all areas of continuous, integrated, predictive and prescriptive planning.
Next, IBM Cognos Analytics with Watson is a trusted AI co-pilot for business decision-makers who want to improve the impact of their business function by empowering every user to turn data into insights, and rapidly make business decisions. IBM can plan at the speed of your business and for the integrity of your environment, increasing accuracy and consistency with AI and prescriptive analytics capabilities you can trust.
And last but certainly not least, the new IBM Analytics Content Hub in Business Analytics Enterprise, which is designed to break down organizational analytic silos and help you deliver all your analytics capabilities to your teams.
The benefits of business analytics
Most recently, review site G2 named Planning Analytics a “Leader” in their Fall 2022 report and Cognos Analytics a “Top 50 Analytics and AI” product for 2022. TrustRadius awarded both Planning Analytics and Cognos Analytics a “Top Rated” designation. Over the last couple years, a range of companies shared their feedback, leading to many of the improvements in the user experience, AI innovations and deployment options available today.
