We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature of Pyramid Analytics, outshining even top-tier platforms like Power BI, is its robust support for DAX queries.""It seems quite performant in analyzing multi-dimensional information sets and presenting them.""The features I find most valuable are 'Discover,' 'Formulate,' and 'Model.' I use them regularly to build logic and create reports for my job.""It offers a wide range of analytics options including statistics and visualizations, as well as prediction capabilities, allowing users to make forecasts based on the latest data.""I think the most valuable Pyramid Analytics feature is the solution's ability to drill down and dice in the loop. I think it is better than InExcel or Power BI.""It proved to be a very powerful and useful tool due to its breakdown capabilities, easy reporting features, flexibility in building custom calculations, and the ability to integrate them into reports.""Pyramid has a wide level of uses, as it's a complete ETL process and has a good level of connecting to a lot of data sources.""The on-premise version has quite good scalability."

"The search feature: ability to see the related data.""The most useful feature of QlikView for me is the QVD concept.""It is useful to use a tool like this to have a view of data at a point in time. You can extract and create little data sets that you can store, and then over time, you can have a view for tracking changes. Especially when you work with a relational database or a database that's a production database, the data is dynamic, but if you use QlikView, you can take a snapshot of different datasets. In your own time, you can then get insights and report, build, analyze, and draw whatever you need from the data, which is quite useful.""It's incredibly fast and can handle large volumes of data without slowing down our operations.""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.""The solution is fast.""The in-memory feature gives us better insight. It's also easy to drill down into the information and select information."

Cons
"Even though the solution has a functionality for every step, it's not so well- defined. That needs to be improved.""Pyramid Analytics could improve by speeding up data refresh, especially for large datasets.""The general amount of negative comments that I am hearing from my team makes me very wary.""I find that this is quite a heavy, time-consuming tool for developers.""There is room for improvement in terms of the user interface, particularly when it comes to modifying connections between filters and visual components in a dashboard.""There is room for improvement in terms of documentation and examples, especially for newcomers like me who are learning both business intelligence and Pyramid.""It would be desirable to have the possibility to generate a data dictionary, detailing the original physical tables, renamed fields, and derived fields.""I think the graphic number of charts and components could be higher, at least comparable to Brain Power BI."

More Pyramid Analytics Cons →

"It needs work with visualization.""Better source data connectors.""They could improve the speed.""QlikView certainly lacks in its ability to share visualizations or create visualizations easily.""Scalability really depends on the size of your data and QlikView server architecture. For the biggest data sets, it could become an issue at some point.""They could provide a user-friendly analysis process rather than specialized IT resource code.""QlikView's UI could be more user-friendly.""The solution should be mobile-responsive. It should also include drag-and-drop and slice-and-dice features."
