User review Business Objects: The Complete Reference I have not gotten through the entire book yet but so far it has addressed all my needes. I found it to be more than just a reference manual. It takes you through eash aspect of the product in a fair amount of detail. It also give you best practices, the kind of thing I would hope to get in classroom instruction. User review A real Time Killer - - - No Meat and all gravy I have to say I was really excited when I picked up this book but now that I am almost through the book ,,,,,, I wonder how the hell did I have to patience to read the entire book without tossing it into the bin ,,,,. well may be I wanted to to get something out of it for my money's worth ,,,,. This book is not bad its just not what you would expect from the complete refrence series ,,,, ABSOLUTELY NO MEAT ,,,,. hell I could have written a book by copying and modifying the language from the USER Manuals ,,,,,,,, You don't learn something when the author just tells you `OK drop this menu and select this option` unless you are going to tell me why am I selecting this option ,,,,. sry but I have to be harsh on this ,,,, when you are writing a book a such a good software you need to be in really top form with an excellent command on everything ,,,,,,,, In the end `READ THIS IF YOUR COMPANY BUYS IT FOR YOU AND DON`T SPEND MRE THAN 2 DAYS ON THIS` User review Excellent Resource for `newbies` I found the sections on the history of Busines Objects and the background on Business Intelligence very helpful. The only missing component is a CD for the report exercises. User review Wonderful resource! I was thrilled when I heard that a book was being published on Business Objects! After getting a copy of Cindi Howson's book, I was even more pleased! It is truly a very comprehensive guide on how to use Business Objects. It does a good job of explaining the concepts behind business intelligence as well the the different Business Objects products. I think every person who uses Business Objects would benefit from owning this book! I recommend it through our local user group and to all of my clients! The examples are good and the index is pretty complete. A test for a good reference book is that you can readily find the solution to a particular problem. Ms. Howson's book certainly fits the bill. It would have been nice to have more how to descriptions and practical solutions to common business problems. Other books on Computer Application | |||||||||||
