Yes - I understand with a full license from EMC, or one of their appliances,
the data does fly.

Try InetSoft - we have used them for reporting in the past, and they have an
awesome drill-down, dashboard, reporting tool.  It's also very hackable.

I haven't looked at LogiXML in a while - but their Ad-Hoc tool was pretty
impressive.

I had forgotten about Tableau, and it appears they have a server component
now.  That's good to hear.
