Easy to implement, good data forecasting and reporting

This solution works for acquired data but not live, real-time data. If we connect it to a live backend system then we cannot perform predictive analytics on top of that. We have to first upload data to the cloud, manage the staging environment, and then perform the analysis. In the next release of this solution, I would like to see more automation in generating the models. The system can suggest the dimensions and measures that should be used, and pre-populate some of the information based on that. Power users would not have as much need for this, but this type of automation would be very helpful for business end-users.

Good performance, reporting, and data visualization

The two similar solutions that I have used are MicroStrategy and Tableau. Tableau is pretty similar and it would be difficult for me to point out the differences. With MicroStrategy, it has a great feature where you build the representation in the database and it then the tool creates SQL queries by itself. There are more differences between these tools but this is the one essential difference.

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

Pros

"I think the features of the actual ability to forecast and pull trends and correlations has been really good."

"The most valuable features are the analytics and reporting."

"We like the way we can drill down into each report to get back data on each project. From the portfolio level, I can see what is happening on it. That is a really important feature. I can look at indirect costs, for example, which are hitting each CIO portfolio. It's good to be able to see actual resources in terms of time as well as cost."

"The most valuable feature is the ease of setting up visualizations."

"The idea that you don't have to generate reports each day but they are sent automatically is great."

"The most valuable feature is the performance."

Cons

"This solution works for acquired data but not live, real-time data."

"In terms of performance, I can see there are some issues when you are working with big data. When we are taking it from the Data Lake, we have a lot of issues."

"The scripting for customization could be improved."

"I would like the visualization for the map of countries to be more easily configurable."

"Additional templates would help to get things moving more quickly in terms of getting the reports out."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is reasonable"
