BrightStar Partners, a charter member of the IBM Cognos Global Partner program, announced today that Cognos, an IBM company, has obtained a world-wide, non-exclusive license for BrightStar Partners' MetaManager® solution.
MetaManager® simplifies and streamlines many of the complexities associated with metadata, security and data management at the developer, administrator and consumer level. The product modules are designed to help administrators and developers manage and maintain metadata, perform impact analysis of any modifications on end user content, and automatically resolve any issues that may occur from the impact analysis. As well, administrators and developers can generate detailed audit trail and other compliance-based documentation with the click of a button, perform full or selectable content backups and restores, easily apply report standardization, migrate and deploy content across environments, control and manage portal tab distribution, and greatly ease the process of administering security.
"We have worked closely with the BrightStar Partners team for many years, as they possess tremendous credibility with their implementation experience and extraordinarily deep knowledge of the IBM Cognos products. MetaManager, one of the many solutions in their product portfolio, greatly streamlines the development and administrative side of an IBM Cognos deployment," said Bradley Jeffers, Director, Industry and Technology Alliances at Cognos.
"Through our long tenure working with the entire IBM Cognos suite of products as a Platinum partner, we are thrilled to have IBM Cognos benefit from these solutions," said Andrew Rachmiel, co-CEO of BrightStar Partners, Inc. "MetaManager customers have experienced ROI upwards of 600% and higher within the first year of use."
BrightStar Partners is an IBM Cognos Platinum Reseller partner, Gold Technology partner and member of the Powered by IBM Cognos Software program. With a team of very senior Professional Services and Product Development resources, BrightStar Partners provides professional services offerings and implementation-based solutions to IBM Cognos customers worldwide.
