"In terms of the UI and SaaS, the user interface with KNIME is more appealing than RapidMiner."
"The price of this solution should be improved."
"We are currently working on connectivity with S/4HANA, but we would like to have better connectivity with our legacy systems."
"The security, authorization, and live connection to the back-office system features can be improved. A business analyst colleague who creates complex financial management reports has mentioned that he wants to see more fact and visualization features. It would be helpful to have more visualization features to be able to prepare more stories or reports for executives. For example, Tableau has some visualization features that are not present in this solution."
"SAC, which is the cloud version, lost some good features from the previous planning product, like BPC or BPS."
"AI doesn't work as well with SAP live connections."
"I expect more integration from SAP Analytics Cloud."
"The budget management could be better."
"It's lacking a bit in maturity and we find we can't run our business off it until it's improved."
"It should have the flexibility for scoping the story and models. When you use it in a three-layer architecture, you struggle with the fact that you usually have just one SAP Analytics Cloud tenant, and you have to switch the connections, which might be an issue for bigger developments. For the development role, there should be an option to switch between development and production scenarios."
