Pros
"SAP Lumira is the best system in the world, at least in my opinion. I like that it's a stable system and that many people in my company have development experience in SAP Lumira. The solution keeps on improving and has excellent support.""The most value that Lumira provides is in its ability to consume the Business Objects universe.""Geographic hierarchy and the ability to connect with SAP sources, such as CRM, ERP, and BW.""It is fairly easy and fast when it comes to using it.""Beautiful visualizations.""The best feature is the ease of developing dashboards.""The most valuable features of SAP Lumira are the dashboards, geographical elements, and graph filtering, and the usage is similar to a website which makes it easy to use."

"​Allows users to build their own solutions without as much reliance on technology staff.""The most valuable thing I have found is the ability for Sisense to connect data from totally different sources.""Allows us to execute heavy, complex computations on the fly so customers can slice and dice the data based on their business needs.""Support is very responsive and clearly one of the strengths of Sisense. I have always received a fast response and the staff is very helpful.""The dashboard design interface is very intuitive and allows you to quickly and easily produce professional, innovative dashboards.""No issues with stability. It is a very stable solution.""A very simple setup: Easy to download, install, and updates are pain free.""ElastiCube Manager is a very easy to use ETL tool, which includes the ability to easily transform raw data into reusable data."

Cons
"SAP Lumira can improve if they game more capability to the end user to prepare dashboards because it's more of an IT task to create them. In Tableau, we can drag, drop, and create. However, in SAP Lumira, we need a designer and a separate KT to be able to do it well.""It would be great to have more ETL capabilities so that the user can do more cleansing/mining on his/her side.""Lumira's capabilities feel like that of a store app with the intuitiveness of a desktop app, which is not a good combination.""It needs the ability to drill down more. Analyzing data with Lumira at times becomes a bit difficult.""It needs an easier printing feature.""Lumira uses a lot of memory resources, so the execution of dashboards is slow.""I'm not a fan of using SAP Lumira because it requires putting in a lot of information by keyboard directly because it requires some coding, so this is one area for improvement. From a user point of view, SAP Lumira is a complex system to learn and teach, so another area for improvement in the solution is that it needs to be more user-friendly."

More SAP Lumira Cons →

"I would love to have more customization capabilities for building dashboards, especially in creating custom widget sizes.""Larger datasets will sometimes give a "Accumulated logs" error when trying to make minor changes. T""This solution does not have tabs. In order to have tabs, you have to download an add-on to mimic the tabs. They should be integrated to improve the solution.""I would like to see more development and growth for the support of Knowledge Base and Community forums.""The initial version we purchased only ran on Windows servers, which was less than ideal for our DevOps team. I believe that has been remedied in the latest release.""They should improve the filters to create downloaded data by moving them to the top of the dashboard.""The administrative side of Sisense is a little cumbersome and confusing.""I would like Sisense to improve its performance, particularly when we are dealing with large-scale data."
