Does anybody have experience using Infor BI versus Lawson BI?
We purchased Lawson BI but have'nt implemented it.
Our rep is recommending that we switch to Infor BI instead and maintains that Lawson BI wont continue to be supported.
We have another team here who thinks we should ditch the Infor solution entirely and start using Tableau instead which the company has'nt purchased yet but they have researched it and think its a preferred solution for reporting all round
Any thoughts or input is appreciated

We have used LBI for many years and just ramping up IBI. They are, however, two different animals. LBI being your typical relational reporting (Crystal , SQL ,Excel) while IBI consisting of analysis cubes. There is a way to get a relational looking report in IBI, but it's cumbersome.
