This section of the website is focused on the variety of BI tools for which there is a Map Intelligence solution. Map Intelligence is not restricted to the current selection of MI Clients because the MI Client Integration Kit enables integration with most third party software.
With some minor variations dependent on the features of a BI tool, Map Intelligence offers exactly the same set of functionality for any BI environment.
The MI Client is used as a convenient description for the bundle of MI components which are purchased and installed as one unit (for example the MI Client for Cognos). The other necessary component being the MI Server. Once installed, the Map Intelligence location components are immediately accessible and usable without leaving the familiar framework of each BI tool.
It is very easy to change between MI Clients for one BI tool to another, or to deploy additional MI Clients operating against the same MI Server.
If you don't have access to a BI tool or even Microsoft's Excel then Mi Express could be where to start.
