BURLINGTON, MA, August 13, 2001—When GetThere first went live in 1995, it was a pioneer in the field of Internet-based travel reservations. Today, with the help of Cognos'^® (Nasdaq: COGN; TSE: CSN) powerful business intelligence solutions, GetThere, a Sabre company, is the leading provider of advanced, Web-based travel reservation technology with more than 900 major corporate clients and 10 major airline customers.

The reporting capability in the GetThere system is enabled by Cognos PowerPlay Web^® and allows corporations to analyze data about their overall travel spending. Web-based information and detailed analysis of airline, hotel, and car rental data is available to customers via the administration function in GetThere's corporate travel system. Customers can 'slice and dice' data as required and drill down to gain insight on the details of their travel spending and savings, achieved through online booking.

"This level of analysis is a breakthrough in the travel industry," said Jay GaBany, director of travel applications at GetThere. "In addition to moving reservation technology to the Web, GetThere and Cognos can now provide customers with a window to view exactly how money is being spent on travel in their organization. This valuable data allows them to identify cost-saving opportunities, forecast future expenses, and make more informed decisions."

With real-time access to information, customers can negotiate better pricing models with hotels, airlines and car rental companies and make changes rapidly as their businesses evolve. Previously, this type of data was only available from travel agencies and credit card companies weeks after the transactions were made.

GetThere has seen a significant adoption rate of the Cognos-powered solution. "We cater to most of the Fortune 1000 companies and almost all of them have cited the high level of information access and analysis we deliver as one of the top reasons for choosing our system," added GaBany. When Cognos was first deployed in 1997, the adoption rate was about two percent. Today, GetThere is seeing many large companies breaking the 50 per cent barrier, making online travel reservations the norm, rather than the exception.

GetThere reported a number of reasons for choosing to integrate Cognos' robust reporting and multidimensional analysis solution into their technology. "Based on a previous experience, we were familiar with Cognos' superior functionality and didn't see another solution that had a fraction of their capabilities, ease of use or ability to integrate with our system," said GaBany. Cognos' intuitive interface and ease of deployment were also key selling factors.

"With corporations looking to reduce unnecessary expenses, many are finding employee travel an area ready for new efficiency processes. GetThere and Cognos offer corporations a robust, Web-based solution to proactively identify cost-saving opportunities and make better, more informed business decisions based on real-time access to information," said Alan Rottenberg, senior vice president, E-Business Applications Business Unit, Cognos.
