"PRISM Business Intelligence enables customers to tap data stored in their iSeries systems to make more informed decisions about every aspect of their business. It will help them summarize, compare and analyze data across multiple platforms and applications," said Jay Galasso, Vice President for Marketing, Baan Process Solutions.
