Microstrategy: It is web based as well as desktop
It has only one metadata repository which is centralaised repository.
It doesnt support any cube dataset so we can have only current data from datawarehouse.Â DontÂ refresh data
Cognos: It is web based only
It has two meta data repository.
We have toÂ refresh the cube for getting currentÂ data.
Compared to microstrategy it will be slow performance.
