WebI Rich Client Vs DeskI

[system]

Hello Experts,
Could anyone list out the differences between WebI Rich Client and DeskI?
We are already having the thick client DeskI, what is the need of WebI Rich Client?

Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Sundar

I couldn’t find any information, that lists out or states the differences /comparisons between WebI Rich Client and DeskI features in any of the following guides from SAP BO website
What’s New in BusinessObjects XI 3.1
What’s New in BusinessObjects XI 3.0
Web Intelligence Rich Client User’s Guide

If any could find any doc with the information, please provide the link.
I just need the differences in WebI Rich Client Vs DeskI

Surely if you know Deski, and have read the Webi Rich Client documents, then you can draw your own comparisons between the two products.

Deski vs Rich Client

Hi, I would like to know if Rich Client has the View Data option available as it is in Deski. The View Data (blue cube) button takes you to the Dtat Manager. I’ve searched all over Rich Lient but it doesn’t seem to have that feautre but just wanted to make sure. If not, does anyone know if it will ever have that available?

BO 6.5 Upgrade Deski verus Webi

Currently were on BO 6.5 and the IT team is in the process of upgrading to XIR2. I currently use BO 6.5 Full Client and they are looking to push the majority of the users to WEBI which from what I’ve read so far does look like I’ll be able to do the things to do today like: I’m looking to build a case that we (power users) still get DESKI until WEBI is up to speed with all the features I enjoy today. So I have a few questions if you can verify if these features are in WEBI or not. …

for starters.
