hi everybody.
There is a lot of difference between SAS and othere tools.
SAS is a tool which is a combination of three basic features.
1) It is a reporting tool.
2) It is a ETL tool and
3) It is also a forecasting tool.
whereas the tools other than SAS
- consists of the first feature. eg: BUSINESS OBJECTS, COGNOS.
- or consists of the second feature.eg: INFORMATICA.
- or consists of the first and second features. eg: BUSINESS OBJECTS.
No other tool has the power of forecasting feature. Hence SAS is used in mostly Clinical trials and healthcare industry.
Hope you are satisfied.
Bye.
