  All About the CORTEX
The CORTEX launched in January 2009. Please excuse our 'under construction' dust as we fine-tune the forums! The Business Intelligence CORTEX is for discussions about all the major business intelligence vendor products, tips and techniques to get the most out of your investments, the state of BI in Australia, professional development, the latest BI news, and market research.
This forum is for discussions about the CORTEX itself. Opinions, comments, ideas for new features. Post here if you have any ideas about the CORTEX community.
