"We have found the scalability to be very good."
"We find that we can scale it as needed."
"It provides flexibility for creating reports. It is very good for creating highly-complex reports. I like this solution because when I buy BusinessObjects, it comes with many components, such as reporting, dashboard, and data visualization tools. Its performance is good. It is running on top of SAP BW and SAP HANA."
"Enables us to present data with Smart Objects that can be embedded within presentations and which automatically update when the presentations are run."
"Ease of report development is a key feature."
"We find the product to be very stable."
"It is solid and stable."
"The most important feature of BusinessObjects is its integration with the SAP ERP system. If an organization is using SAP as its ERP system, and they want to do business intelligence, reporting, or analysis, SAP BusinessObjects is the only tool that I see doing that quite efficiently. That's because of the fact it is tightly integrated, and it gives a good user experience in terms of faster reporting. Its integration is the feature that I have found most valuable, but there are also other factors."
"The platform uses a lot of Java technologies so the performance and system-level management are tricky because it needs a lot of resources."

"The product is expensive."
"They can provide more end-user customizations. There should be the possibility for the end-users to change some elements in the interface. I have a way of doing my job. My colleague may have his own way of doing his job. If I ask for a change, it'll change for everyone. It'll be good to have some end-user personalizations. I can't see many in Salesforce right now."
"There are some offerings like Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, and Marketing Cloud that have very useful online learning options. There need to be more avenues for self-learning with this particular solution. That would be useful."
"When it comes to generating reports, it appears that many users rely on experts to handle technical aspects. For instance, if you require a weekly report displaying accounts transitioning in and out of your modules, it seems challenging to accomplish without consulting experts for assistance. Such tasks should be user-friendly and easily achievable without external assistance."
"Better pricing would make it available to more users and we would likely use it more broadly within the organization."
"If I could improve Tableau CRM I would make it as powerful as Tableau. Tableau CRM is more integrated and it's on the web, but it has less functionality. It is lacking functionality at this time."
"They have a lot of opportunity to improve BI tools. With Einstein Analytics, we have a very minimal scope."
"Einstein Analytics could incorporate something like SFIA 8 to help users understand the underlying skill sets."
"The SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform has always struggled with dashboarding."
"The cost of this product, so every company is not suitable to use it. Because of the very huge amount of integrations, every organization can not use it."
"The solution could be less expensive. It's a bit pricey now."
"The user interface should be easier to use and navigate."
"It could be a lighter solution."
"Most of the Apps right now are into dashboarding. This tool, for the Crystal Reports in the phase I'm primarily working on, does not have those dashboarding capabilities, like in the other advanced tools like Power BI or ClickView, and compared to them the dashboard generation is not that great."
"The solution can improve by having more analytical features."
"Over the years, the product tends to rename and rebrand itself and change its direction. This is a deficit of the solution."
