I think this is a case of what your requirements are. &nbsp;There are lots of BI tools. &nbsp;I have used Qlikview extensively and found it fast, flexible and more intuitive than others I tried.<br />
<br />
Will you be the one generating reports or someone else? <br />
Do you need to have your staff interrogate the data or just be shown reports?<br />
How easily does the tool integrate with your data(base)?<br />
<br />
There is also a range of pricing for these products so one may just fit because it is financially more viable.<br />
<br />
They're just a few of the questions I went through when deciding a BI tool.

Business Intelligence (BI)

A database report is the formatted result of database queries and contains useful data for decision-making and analysis. Most good business applications contain a built-in reporting tool; this is simply a front-end interface that calls or runs back-end database queries that are formatted for easy application usage.
