- ✓Keep Cognos operational during migration with dual-platform experts.
- ✓Translate complex Report Studio layouts into Qlik load scripts.
- ✓Preserve Query Studio reports as interactive Qlik sheets.
- ✓Convert PowerPlay cubes to QVD data pipelines.
- ✓Save 40-70% on post-migration support vs OEM renewals.
- ✓24/7 US-based support for your new Qlik environment.
Cognos Can't Handle Real-Time Exploration
Your users demand instant data discovery, but Cognos static reports force slow, iterative cycles.
Cost Reduction Targets Pressure Your Budget
High Cognos licensing and support costs are unsustainable. You need a more cost-effective modern BI platform.
Complex Reports Delay Migration Planning
Query Studio interactive reports, multi-tab Report Studio layouts, and PowerPlay cubes make migration seem risky.
IBM Cognos Analytics → Qlik Sense migration — your questions answered
How do you handle my existing Query Studio interactive reports during the Cognos to Qlik migration?+
We analyze each report and rebuild its logic as interactive Qlik Sense sheets. Users get the same interactive experience with faster associative filtering.
What about complex multi-tab Report Studio layouts? Can they be migrated to Qlik?+
Yes. Our senior engineers translate the layout structure into Qlik load scripts and visualizations, preserving the analytical flow across tabs.
How do you convert IBM Cognos Transformer PowerPlay cubes (.mdc files) to Qlik?+
We extract the cube dimensions and measures, then build QVD data pipelines that refresh automatically in your Qlik environment.
What is the typical timeline and budget for a Cognos to Qlik Sense migration?+
Most projects run 4–8 months with 2–4 senior consultants. Budgets range from $80,000 to $400,000 depending on report complexity and data volume.
