Upgrade & Migration

Advanced analytics solutions such as IBM Planning Analytics and IBM Cognos Analytics open up exciting new approaches to enterprise budgeting, planning, analysis and reporting.  To take advantage of this, more and more customers who currently use previous IBM versions should plan to migrate to the latest IBM Business Analytics solutions.

To fully benefit from the new architecture and functionality of IBM Business Analytics, the migration process requires a thorough understanding of the differences between the existing and the new platforms. Upgrading your applications to new versions or new platforms can be risky and complicated.  The same applies to migrating your data.
