CCH Tagetik vs Microsoft Power BI comparison

"I've primarily worked with CCH Tagetik as a consultant, handling implementations and not providing day-to-day user support. I initially appreciated the unified platform, the Ownership Structure Register, which benefits certain entities. The workflow feature is great, but it can become overly detailed and lacks clear guidance on design. The solution is good in terms of storage."

"I appreciate its user-friendliness, especially for business users who may not be very tech-savvy."

"The ability for integration and automatic loading from the Oracle system into CCH Tagetik is very valuable."

"The most valuable feature of CCH Tagetik is form creation."

"Has an APM, which deals with the details of data and has calculation functions included."

"We have found the product very stable and reliable."

"The solution is very intuitive, you do not need to have too much programming knowledge to use it. Advanced Excel users can use it very easily."

"I've seen no issues with BI's stability."

"They find Power BI's data pull mechanism to be sufficient and cost-effective, especially considering the stability it provides. In comparison with other solutions, Power BI stands out as a fantastic choice. Therefore, I would definitely recommend sticking with the Pro license."

"The ease of integration and connectivity stands out as the most critical aspect, followed closely by the flexibility to customize reports and dashboards."

"The solution is easy to use and charts can be built quickly with the tools."

"The most valuable aspect of Microsoft Power BI in my field is the insights it provides from analyzing data. Sometimes, these insights go beyond what traditional analysis can reveal due to the large volume of data involved. In terms of improving our data analysis process, it starts with identifying data sources, followed by cleaning and filtering out irrelevant data. Then, we categorize and structure the data to achieve the best visualization and insights. Regarding Power BI's integration with other tools, although we haven't implemented it ourselves, it's known that Power BI can integrate with systems like SAP or ERP software, which could enhance our analytics capabilities if needed."

"The various different ETL tools within it and the ability to have different data refreshes and scheduled refreshes [real-time data refresh capabilities] have most significantly improved the data analysis processes."

"We faced difficulties while uploading data."

"Analytics function is weak. Other products have sum(irate) function and forecasting help function, but Tagetik does not have this clarity."

"The tool's major drawback is the ETL process, which is not up to par with other solutions."

"There is a need for improvement in the ability to generate all reports from one click, like both P&L and balance sheets, to be available together in Excel."

"There is room for improvement, especially on the settings side of the solution."

"​It needs more analytic tools."

"I found data cleaning in the solution to be quite difficult. If I could add a feature, I'd include Excel's Flash Fill function. This allows you to set a formula for one row and column and automatically apply it to thousands of rows, making data sorting much easier."

"When you go to the cloud, its licensing is not intuitive. It is a little bit complex. When you have to purchase a new license, it is difficult to understand on their website what exactly you need to pay and how you can group. It is something that is applicable to all Microsoft products. They're not always so simple and clear when it comes to licensing. Their support can also be better in terms of explaining how they resolved an issue and what steps they took to resolve it. They are able to resolve the issue, but they can be better at explaining the approach they took to resolve the issue. It could have something in the direction of machine learning. It can have some kind of integration with machine learning where you can ask for some reports with natural language."

"I face performance issues with Microsoft Power BI, which are unsolvable. There is a lack of features between the on-premises and cloud version, which poses a challenge for me."

"The only concern I have faced with Microsoft BI is the time it takes to find out an issue and rectify it."

"Things can slow down if you create too many pages."

"If you need data in real-time, it's not an ideal solution."

"An area for improvement is data refresh functionality"

"The solution is quite expensive."

"The solution's pricing is affordable."

"The solution's pricing is medium."

"We have premium licenses, but you can use it for free. You can share the content with anyone else, so you can use it for free."

"Microsoft BI requires licenses."

"I believe that the price is reasonable, at least for an enterprise solution."

"It is reasonably priced."

"There is a license for this solution and we purchase them annually."

"Microsoft BI is not very cheap. A premium license costs roughly 5,000 euros a month."

"We pay on a monthly basis which is approximately $10 per user on the Microsoft Power BI Pro license. At the moment we are still down at 400 users, but once we reach 500 users, we will move to the premium edition. The premium is $5,000 for unlimited users. Currently, with the 40 users, the cost is roughly $500."
