Find out in this report how the two Reporting solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It excels in supporting database connections and various database types."
"Scripting as per a customer's need, which is a pretty cool feature and not available in other tools."
"It has user-friendly data visualization features, supporting our decision-making process with its business intelligence capabilities"
"One of the good thing is that you can integrate different data source technologies. So you can model your environment without having any of our views running."
"It is a stable product."
"Data transforming with scripting, and the associative model that lets users browse data in an easy way, are the most valuable features."
"On the positive side, QlikView's scripting is a great asset as it functions as an ETL."
"You can switch views easily."
"In the most recent release, the schedule publication was officially updated and it's been added on MS Office 365. I like how we had an EPM for B to C perspective; it's a great enhancement. Also, I believe the B to B connectivity has been improved. Android support for mobile is really good also. Power BI has always had android support in place, so manual support for SAP Analytics Cloud is also a very good feature."
"The most valuable features are the visualization and user-friendliness."
"There is a really nice insight feature that I enjoy using."
"There is a seamless integration with SAP S4HANA which is really valuable to our organization and its functions. Since the data is stored in the same ecosystem, it creates a simple process of building dashboards, without making the process cumbersome The Analytics Cloud provides standardized templates and storage options, making it easy to plug into existing structures. We're utilizing custom stories that have already been developed, streamlining the development process. It serves as a convenient starting point and contributes to the overall ease of development. Another advantage is that it doesn't provide the same level of calculation power as Power BI and Tableau. SAP Analytics Cloud emphasizes pushing analytics back into the database, recommending data manipulation and preparation outside of the platform. This approach is seen as an advantage, as it allows for more robust data handling."
"It's so user-friendly."
"It is a comprehensive BI solution that provides reporting, planning, and predictive analytics in one solution. You don't have to buy three different products. It is very flexible. It can be implemented very quickly. It has a lot of out-of-the-box scenarios that you can use for quick deployment."
"The most useful feature of SAP Analytics Cloud is planning because it helps users with making predictions and forecasts. Clients can forecast, make data allocations, and other actions. The solution is useful for planning."
"Planning and integration are the most valuable features. It is useful for planning, and it is useful for integrating with on-prem or cloud SAP solutions."
"Needs improvement with UI transparency."
"Installation and deployment could be made easier and quicker."
"Sometimes the filters are disappearing, and I'm not sure why this is happening."
"They should offer the capability to directly access data from SaaS environments, as it would simplify the migration process, and while it may seem like a minor enhancement, it would be beneficial to our clients."
"I would want them to have more options as a user. It would be nice for them to create their own dashboards and add fields."
"QlikView certainly lacks in its ability to share visualizations or create visualizations easily."
"Though the initial setup phase is simple, when it comes to the integration with the custom systems, the configuration and the compatibility sometimes take some more time."
"Sometimes, dealing with complex reports requires more effort, which could be really improved."
"I expect more integration from SAP Analytics Cloud."
"Sometimes there are speed issues with big deletion data."
"Sometimes we have difficulty connecting to a SharePoint list."
"SAP has always had one problem with its products, they make them very closed systems that are difficult to integrate."
"The scope is limited to a few accounts."
"One potential improvement is how we can transpose data. With SAP, if you have data from one system with a declared data type and a different system with another data type, the transfer is tricky."
"Pricing is fine for the BI license, but when it comes to client license, that fee is a bit high."
"In the live connection model, we can't create calculated dimensions, however, in the import model we can create them."
