MicroStrategy could learn from Power BI's user-friendly interface.

The most effective features of MicroStrategy for data analysis in my experience are the security, the metadata management, and the administration, along with the options of different workarounds available to accommodate different types of requirements.
The best features in QlikView are rapid development, the fact that I can do what I want in QlikView, and full control along with ease of use.
A significant feature for me is the real-time connection to data sources because it effectively manages large data sets.
Tableau serves as a stable dashboarding tool for higher management, aiding in quick decision-making.
