Does anyone have a recommendation for a thin client-side cube browsing application with similar abilities as BIDS but none of the design abilities of BIDS. I don't want the clients getting confused with the extra tools, just be able to browse a cube with relative ease.

Yeah, we're using that over here too. I was just curious about other options.

Thanks!

We are using XLCubed - an Excel addin. It's a very good tool (I don't work for them Wink

).
It's quicker than standard Excel pivot tables & has quite a few funky features such as being able to link reports together and having parameter driven reports

we have a couple BI tools inhouse:

Targit and Tableau

I'm not a user of them so can't tell you much about them but maybe worth a look.
