Motio, Inc., the recognized leader in providing advanced software for IBM Cognos BI deployments, continues their strong growth by providing Enterprise-grade applications that help monitor, secure, and customize IBM Cognos BI environments. Recent clients include the University of Colorado, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, The Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and Princeton Financial Systems.
"In what we can all agree is a 'down' economic cycle our customer's are proving what we thought might happen for new BI investments Our client's have shifted from large scale BI decisions to finding ROI justified add-on products to do more with less. It is clear they are focused on getting more out of their current BI products and that is where Motio excels. We're thrilled that our software continues to attract attention and the IBM Cognos installed base values our contributions to BI best practices," said Lynn Moore, CEO, Motio, Inc. The MotioCI product leads Motio's software offering with server-centric features including zero-touch version control, automated regression testing, and audit controls that expose all of the activity occurring within the IBM Cognos environment.

"We needed to establish better business processes around our Cognos BI implementation to stabilize manageability and enhance productivity. MotioCI delivered the tools needed to reduce the amount of time required to meet our high standards for QA while greatly simplifying the processes involved. Numerous instances have shown us that we can rely on MotioCI to monitor our ongoing performance and insure our development investments" said Randy MacLeod, Director of Financial Systems at the University of Colorado.

MotioCAP continues to gain market share as more and more Cognos administrators realize that Motio has already done 80% of the work required in implementing a Custom Authentication Portal. Bennet Kurusumuthu, BI Director at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan said, "Motio's Custom Authentication Provider made implementation of our customer security source simple. We saved weeks and were able to bring our Cognos BI Application to market ahead of schedule."
