Find out in this report how the two Data Visualization solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"Beautiful visualizations."
"The best feature is the ease of developing dashboards."
"It is fairly easy and fast when it comes to using it."
"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."
"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."
"The solution is easy to use, flexible, our clients enjoy seeing the data on maps, and you do not need to be an expert in SQL to use it."
"The solution is being delivered to our customer, who appreciates the insights generated from the reports. It is easy for them to drill into the details and use interactive charts."
"The solution helps users create dashboards and analyze data without relying on IT or product teams."
"The initial setup is quick and easy and you don't need special outside assistance to set everything up."
"When compared with Power BI, Tableau is much easier."
"Data Interpreter: Which can identify issues or potential errors with your imported data."
"The best part about Tableau is the visualization."
"You can create attractive dashboards that inform users using Tableau."
"Lumira's capabilities feel like that of a store app with the intuitiveness of a desktop app, which is not a good combination."
"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 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."
"It would be great to have more ETL capabilities so that the user can do more cleansing/mining on his/her side."
"It needs a little bit more advanced modeling. I would like to see functionality like Cognos has in the Framework Manager."
"What is happening, with so many tools coming up in the market, is that people have to continuously get educated in order to use some of the more advanced features."
"The ability to use it on MAC machines. As far as I know, this is not possible."
"There should be stronger data modules for the platform."
"Tableau is a company that does not respect partners."
"Some of our clients are looking for better UI when using Tableau as they often work with this solution directly."
"The product needs to allow for better ways to drill down more effectively on the information at hand."
"Could have more integrations with different platforms."
