Cosmos Expands Business Central Reporting Platform with Powerful New Features and Smarter Navigation

Blog / News

3.5 years of customer feedback drive the most significant product upgrade in company history. 

Cosmos, the leading reporting solution purpose-built for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Cloud, has announced a major platform relaunch set for September 8, 2025. 

Three and a half years after entering the market, Cosmos has introduced its most substantial feature expansion, enhancing flexibility, collaboration, and user control based directly on feedback from its growing customer base. 

“This is more than just a product update, it’s an exciting evolution of the Cosmos platform,” said Anthony Bonaduce, CRO and Co-Founder of Cosmos. “Over the past 3.5 years, we’ve listened closely to our customers—how they work, what they need, and the enhancements that would make the most significant impact. This release builds on the strong foundation we’ve had from day one, adding even more critical, user-driven features that make the platform smarter, easier to navigate, and more capable for every Business Central user. 

Among the most exciting new features: 

  • Multiple environments for sandbox, production, regions, business units, and more, with complete user-level access control. 
  • An all-new Admin Portal to manage users, job queues, SharePoint, licenses, and data sources in one place. 
  • Smarter ways to organize and work with your data, including row-level security, folders and favorites, built-in version control, and a multitask-friendly data modeler. 
  • Expanded access to Captain Cosmos, the platform’s integrated assistant, now available throughout the system for guidance and exploration. 
  • Advanced SharePoint integration to publish reports where teams already collaborate. 

The new release deploys automatically to all customers without additional setup or downtime.

For Cosmos leadership, this release reaffirms that the platform was built right from the start. Cosmos has always delivered a fast, flexible, and future-ready reporting experience and continues to perform at that standard today. This launch builds on that strong foundation by bringing even more critical, user-driven features into the hands of every customer, ensuring the product evolves in step with the people who know it best.  

“Our goal is simple: build the best reporting experience for Business Central. That means staying connected to the people who use Cosmos daily,” said Brian Petersen, COO and Co-founder at Cosmos. “This launch proves what happens when you listen, evolve, and push to deliver a product that meets expectations and then raises them. It’s faster, smarter, and built to grow with our customers. This momentum continues to fuel the next wave of innovation, and our users will see even more impact in the months ahead.” 

The re-engineered Cosmos platform also reflects the technical ambition behind the scenes. “Our engineering team poured an incredible amount of energy and intelligence into this release,” said Zachary Faltersak, Chief Technology Officer at Cosmos Data Technologies. “We weren’t just adding features, we were rebuilding the Cosmos platform to be more intuitive, more scalable, and more powerful at every level. I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished, and even more excited about what our users can do with it.” 

This milestone represents more than just product progress; it signals a long-term commitment to Cosmos users. Every feature, every update, and every design decision reflects the needs of real Business Central teams working to simplify reporting and get answers faster. With this release, Cosmos continues to deliver on its promise to make enterprise-quality reporting accessible, efficient, and built for the future. 

Cosmos is the only cloud-native reporting platform built exclusively for Business Central, allowing users to design, share, and automate powerful Excel reports without relying on developers or manual exports. Widely recognized as the premier reporting solution for Business Central, it has earned multiple Gartner awards, including ‘Best Value’ and ‘Best Functionality and Features.’  The new experience goes live September 8.

Steve Server Avatar

Steve Server, the OnPremasarus, has been around longer than most of today’s IT teams. He started life with PC Plus, survived the rise of Navigator, lived through the Navision years, and even stuck it out when Microsoft rebranded to Dynamics NAV. But when the world moved to Business Central in the cloud, Steve dug in his heels and stayed on-prem—making him a true relic of the server room.

These days, Steve admits he’s prehistoric. He may be dusty, slow, and clunky, but he’s here to remind you that modern businesses can’t afford to act like he does.
