Business insights improve with reliable integration but face occasional system downtimes

It is difficult to integrate the modules. The customization is also a little bit complex currently, but it is getting easier as they continue improving the market. There are certain glitches, especially when the modules are upgraded or when there is a source code update, causing the entire tool to go offline. There is downtime which still affects the particular product. I would provide a reliability rating of 70%, with 30% still having scope for improvement.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"he most valuable feature of the solution is its ease of use."

"There is definitely a lot of ROI in it."

"The way Salesforce Einstein Analytics is structured in terms of the work assignments and the user profile is very good."

"The most valuable feature of Salesforce Einstein Analytics is the reporting tools."

"The out-of-the-box features are good for companies that want to try analytics and data science interventions."

"The fact that the solution is visually appealing because of its lightning interfaces can be considered one of its most valuable features"

"Salesforce Einstein Analytics is a simplified CRM. It's integration is good."

"I find Salesforce Einstein Analytics valuable because it is easier to use within Salesforce."

More Salesforce Einstein Analytics pros

"What I like best about this solution is that it is built into the SAP line, making it easier to integrate with other SAP products."

"For report scheduling, I always prefer SAP because it has the most powerful scheduling features, like sending reports to more than 1,000 customers per day. That option is not as good in Microsoft BI and in Tableau it only exists as an add-on option."

"This product provides good reports using a single pane of glass."

"The platform's main benefit is its integration with SAP ERP data. It’s effective for data integration and integrity."

"SAP Analytics Hub offers a user-friendly interface with effortless configuration, seamless updates, and real-time availability of information. It avoids the complexities associated with batch processing, providing a smooth and efficient experience."

"Data consistency is also a notable feature; the system takes care of data consistency, so you don't need to handle it manually."

Cons

"The product must be more transparent."

"They can provide more end-user customizations. There should be the possibility for the end-users to change some elements in the interface. I have a way of doing my job. My colleague may have his own way of doing his job. If I ask for a change, it'll change for everyone. It'll be good to have some end-user personalizations. I can't see many in Salesforce right now."

"There are some offerings like Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, and Marketing Cloud that have very useful online learning options. There need to be more avenues for self-learning with this particular solution. That would be useful."

"The tool needs to simplify its features."

"If a user leaves your organization, you shouldn't lose the visibility of all of the records."

"Einstein Analytics could incorporate something like SFIA 8 to help users understand the underlying skill sets."

"If I could improve Tableau CRM I would make it as powerful as Tableau. Tableau CRM is more integrated and it's on the web, but it has less functionality. It is lacking functionality at this time."

"When it comes to generating reports, it appears that many users rely on experts to handle technical aspects. For instance, if you require a weekly report displaying accounts transitioning in and out of your modules, it seems challenging to accomplish without consulting experts for assistance. Such tasks should be user-friendly and easily achievable without external assistance."

More Salesforce Einstein Analytics cons

"Pricing and support are integrated into the system. However, the support process can be challenging, particularly when navigating the SAP support site, which lacks user-friendliness and ease of access."

"The interface can be simplified because it is not a user-friendly experience."

"The platform could easily integrate with other ERP data solutions. Additionally, it should be faster compared to competitors in the cloud space."

"Faster implementation of new functions for the new product is an area of improvement in SAP Analytics Hub."

"The technical support for Analytics Hub is limited and could be improved."

"The analytics part of SAP has not been that good up until now. They're still in the infant stage and development is still going on. SAP has some cloud analytics and they're trying to configure it in Lumira, but it's not that good at this point."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price-wise, Salesforce Einstein Analytics is an expensive tool."

"The solution is expensive."

"Salesforce has a subscription-based licensing structure, where it's between $20 to $75 per month, per user."

"I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."

"Although it was deemed slightly expensive and failed the cost analysis we conducted in our company, we proceeded with the purchase because we desired to have a leading CRM system in the industry."

"Salesforce Einstein Analytics can be considered somewhat expensive, depending on the company's needs. If they want the complete package with all the features, it's pricier. It all comes down to what the company requires from the platform."

"The biggest challenge we had was the cost and the licensing. We ended up getting an enterprise licensing agreement(ELA). That took a lot of negotiations and a lot of pressure. We were able to receive a good price for the community licensing they bundled Salesforce Einstein Analytics. They bundled a lot of capabilities with us with the ELA."

"They are pursuing a highly assertive approach to target businesses of all sizes within the industry."

"The product is expensive."

"It is an expensive solution."

"The pricing is reasonable."
