"End users can adjust their analysis with a few simple clicks."
"The visualizations are good and keep improving."
"It connects very simply to data sources."

"The product has many great features like easy and fast implementation, flexible data loading, and in-memory processing, but the Set Analysis is what I think is the most valuable. It makes the product very powerful."
"The most valuable feature we have found to be the SAP BW, which is a warehouse tool. Additionally, it is an easy tool to use."
"There are two tools inside BusinessObjects' schematic layout called the Universal Design Tool and Information Design Tool. These are the most powerful tools that set BusinessObjects' reporting from other solutions. If my organization has 300 or 400 tables, I can combine all of them into one universe, and everyone can use that. It is just a schematic layout that does not hold any data but the table relationships."
"BusinessObjects can handle a lot of usage on the front end, and many users can view these reports. It's a relatively stable and secure tool."
"The setup is pretty easy. It's not hard at all."
"It has been extremely valuable, to combine data from various data sources."
"SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform is definitely scalable."
"The report development tool called SAP Web Intelligence under the BI Launch Pad portal has been the most valuable feature."
"First of all, visualization tools, productivity, and predictive forecasting are mature."

"In my opinion, collaborative development of the Qlik Apps is a bit tricky and difficult in the Qlik Sense Cloud."
"Report generation without the need for NPrinting, which has limited capabilities anyway, would be an improvement."
"There are occasional stability problems, but Qlik support is excellent at correcting anything that arises."
"The scripts available in the solution are not great."
"I would like to see Qlik add more DevOps functionality to their product. Currently, we have to turn to 3rd party products to handle things like Source Control, Code Deployment through environments, etc."
"The SaaS offering is being enriched quickly in order to attract new customers to that space and encouraging existing customers to make the switch. The Enterprise solution is therefore lagging behind SaaS in features."
"Currently, we are not very happy with the iPad or iPhone app because it is not working as we want."
"If a team wants to keep track of source code changes, there is not an out-of-the-box solution for it."
"The solution is not good for self-services, they can improve in this area."
"The calculation engine requires some improvement."
"Its data visualization tool is not as good as Power BI and Tableau. Currently, for data visualization, you need to spend more money to buy another solution such as Power BI or Tableau. It is also very hard to integrate it with other third-party solutions. Its integration with other solutions should be improved."
"Its price should be better. It is expensive and not cost-effective. It should also be improved in terms of end-user experience. It requires further improvements for usability and ease of use. It should have more dashboarding metrics and much faster integration with ERP so that when you double click, you can instantly see the scenario-based result."
"The solution can improve by having more analytical features."
"There is room for improvement in providing more user-friendly and versatile reporting options."
"The user interface should be easier to use and navigate."
"The platform should be a bit more user-friendly."
