Pronto Xi Business Intelligence Series | Part 6 – Mobility

Part 6: BI from Anywhere, Mobility

As Pronto Xi ERP Software has evolved into a web-based platform that provides seamless mobility from anywhere through its elegantly designed web-client, IBM Cognos Analytics has also emerged as a strong and reliable web platform that can be accessed from any mobile device over a remote connection. Cognos, like Pronto Xi, is completely web-enabled, so any device that is able to access a web browser, is also be able to access Cognos, in real time.

Users can authenticate directly onto the Cognos server to access the same reporting suite as they would when logged into a PC or laptop.

Cognos is optimized beyond simply accessing the web based portal on a mobile device. When logging into Cognos from a mobile device, Pronto Xi will prompt the device to use the optimized interface for an improved user experience.
