This is one of those announcements that I have few thoughts about its importance to anybody. However, Australian vendor Pronto Software says that it has integrated Cognos 10 into its Pronto-Xi out-of-the-box. I'm still waiting for Pronto to follow up on last year’s announcement of a handful of American resellers. Whatever its importance, Pronto says it is the first ERP vendor to embed and optimize IBM’s new Cognos 10 functionality. For what it’s worth, David Jackman, Pronto's managing director says users "will be able to create ad hoc reports, slice and dice the data, and create dashboards in a new intuitive interface."
