    Hello,

    Does anyone know of common front end tools for SS Analysis Services which can be used by end users ? like for e.g. if they wish to play around with the cube, what should they ideally be using to do that ?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Regards,

    Paul

    Excel definitely comes to mind. Most of the other major vendors (e.g. IBM Cognos, SAP BO) support querying SSAS cubes, so if you have these on hand, they should also work.

    Thanks for your suggestion, Steve ! It was really helpful.

    Check out Pyramid Analytics.

    Possibly the best tool for viewing an Analysis Services cube... by far.
