10 years of dynamic internal and external financial communication at Belgacom thanks to an integrated budgeting and reporting system with Cognos (formerly Applix) TM1

In Belgium, Belgacom is the market leader for global telecommunication solutions for companies and private individuals. The Belgacom group above all provides local, interzonal and international voice and data services, on the fixed and mobile network, in addition to satellite and carrier services and a wide range Internet services. In 2006 the group achieved a turnover of 6.1 billion euro and employed 18.000 people.

“Cognos (formerly Applix) TM1 is one of the most powerful Excel-based tools that I know. The time needed to process the budgets and manage the data is reduced by thirty to forty percent.”

“The more employees - today, there are already over 400 - use the application and discover it, the more demand there is for new applications. It is a clear sign that we made the right choice with Cognos (formerly Applix) TM1!"
