The problem

Experiencing cluttered Cognos?

Cognos environments quickly become disorganized with unused reports, broken links, and inconsistent security. Cleaning it up manually is nearly impossible. Without the right tools, the clutter grows, performance suffers, and teams waste valuable time chasing down issues instead of delivering insights.

The solution: MotioPI Pro
Find, fix, and manage Cognos content with ease.

MotioPI Pro was built for Cognos teams who need visibility, efficiency, and control over their BI environment. It provides powerful search, cleanup, and administration capabilities that simplify managing complex Cognos deployments: quickly locate content, remove clutter, manage permissions, and streamline migrations, all within a familiar interface.
