"Managing the OB applications requires a high level of experience, and makes the solution quite heavy."
"The solution needs to be easier to scale."
"The pricing model could be improved. Right now, it's quite confusing. Many customers have this feeling that it's a super-expensive option."
"Essbase integration needs to be worked on."
"The functionality to customize and modify reports has been removed, and it would be beneficial to reinstall it, as it allows greater customization and flexibility in creating reports."
"Customer service/technical support gets five out of 10. Sometimes good, sometimes bad."
"Oracle OBIEE can improve the ease of use. It is a lot to learn and it could be made easier."
"Warehouse and business intelligence are two different things, but OBIEE also has some warehouse features in it. I would like to see some of those capabilities improved."
"The solution is not good for self-services, they can improve in this area."
"The solution can improve by having more analytical features."
"The SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform has always struggled with dashboarding."
"Its data visualization tool is not as good as Power BI and Tableau. Currently, for data visualization, you need to spend more money to buy another solution such as Power BI or Tableau. It is also very hard to integrate it with other third-party solutions. Its integration with other solutions should be improved."
"The interface could be slicker and more user-friendly."
"I don't like the fact that I have to use two tools. Web Intelligence is good for reporting and all kinds of stuff, but I would rather have one product. All the reporting features of Web Intelligence should be developed within Lumira. A lot of predictive abilities have been brought into the cloud version of SAP Analytics. It would be nice to see a lot of newer technologies and AI. Predictive capabilities are becoming a little more standard. Instead of having to get another model, we are just looking for one solution to deal with analytics including predictive."
"It would be good if they could integrate the possibility for end users to create end models for themselves that they can use, especially for site operators, and if they could provide the end user not only the self-service BI, but also the self-service analytics, based on a predefined model, the same way that Oracle did."
"The performance could be improved, like when we extract a large amount of data."
