I have one client who's considering it because of the ability to offload queries to the server, and another who's using it to run daily, weekly, and monthly reports. So, it's not the reporting you're buying with CI, it's the rest of the package. Besides, it also supports Seagate Holos, so you're getting data cubes too.....
