Better Engage Users

Thrive Environment metrics allow you to quickly view which Cognos users are at risk. Using our proprietary “At Risk Score,” Cognos Analytics Administrators and Team Leads can easily identify which individuals have the highest likelihood of being dissatisfied with Cognos which can often lead to an abandonment of a license. The score takes into account metrics like login trend and the number of errors encountered to determine which users could require some extra assistance.

Identify Power Users

Thrive has metrics that surface which Cognos users log the greatest activity level changes on both ends of the spectrum. The visualization below is available in the User Adoption module. It allows Administrators or Application Managers to better understand their users’ behavior, identify adoption techniques that are working, and better plan to meet growing populations of analytics users.

Save in Licensing Costs

The visualization below shows an environment’s inactive users. In this case, the chart is sorted by total number of days since last login. Utilizing this and other reports, Administrators can identify ways to optimize licensing costs where Cognos Analytics users are not fully leveraging their capabilities.
