"The solution scales extremely well."
"Einstein Analytics provides insights into what we are doing and how we are doing it. It tells us what benchmarks we need to hit consistently to achieve our goals. In sales, there is sometimes a disconnect between actions and objectives. We aren't necessarily going to close a deal because we call X number of people. There are some underlying skills that add nuance to these metrics."
"The most valuable feature of Salesforce Einstein Analytics is the reporting tools."
"Salesforce Einstein Analytics is a simplified CRM. It's integration is good."
"The tool is valuable. It's one of the greatest programs I'm currently working with, and I believe it will continue to be crucial in the next four to five years. It's the future of our operations. Integrating other systems and conducting campaigns is easy. The solution relies heavily on AI."
"It is a comprehensive solution. It has everything in it. I can easily find what I need."
"Tableau CRM is a very capable solution. It is easy to use, user-friendly, and integrates well."
"What I like the most about SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform is that it has significantly improved our decision-making process."
"It is stable and robust. It has pretty direct integration with SAP ERP. It is easy to use."
"The setup is pretty easy. It's not hard at all."
"Has features that can be leveraged to scale out and scale up."
"There are two tools inside BusinessObjects' schematic layout called the Universal Design Tool and Information Design Tool. These are the most powerful tools that set BusinessObjects' reporting from other solutions. If my organization has 300 or 400 tables, I can combine all of them into one universe, and everyone can use that. It is just a schematic layout that does not hold any data but the table relationships."
"Reporting from SAP Business Objects Web Intelligence is amazing, and gives users the ability to quickly access data from existing universes and/or relevant data sources, without the need to involve a functional business analyst or financial analyst."
"It is a very good product, stable, and has good technical capabilities."
"It is more user-friendly and easier to work with the report creation part, creating reports out of an established universe. Maybe a business person could liberate the existing universe and create a report on top of it, as well. So that's one cool feature."

"The product is natively integrated into the Salesforce ecosystem. You also need a CRM license. It should be more flexible with other platforms."
"If a user leaves your organization, you shouldn't lose the visibility of all of the records."
"I would advise others not to customize because they rolled out the newer versions, which are every six months. There had to be some significant testing and verification that happened. It is important to have a strong third-party provider that is very experienced. We used Deloitte, but we evaluated Accenture, KPMG, and IBM, but we decided on Deloitte and that was a good decision for us. Having a partner who has a center of excellence or experts that could give you a lot of the tips that they've learned could jumpstart your deployment and stick to the standards."
"They have a lot of opportunity to improve BI tools. With Einstein Analytics, we have a very minimal scope."
"The product is expensive."
"Improvement-wise, I feel the solution must be more robust since it is not exactly ready to handle large data."
"All of the timesheets and appraisal management I have not been happy with. There should be some improvements. For example, as a management team, our managers do not have access to see a summary report, such as who is on leave today or how many hours each person logged in. You have to get into individual users and see. You cannot see a summary report, the reporting is missing. There should improve the reports."
"The price of Salesforce Einstein Analytics is quite a bit expensive for the region of Mexico. I think the price of the product could be better."
"The financial area in the solution has certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"Tableau was easier for me to use because the interface is more similar to Excel which I was used to using."
"Integrations with things like Active Directory and LDAP tend to be a little complex."
"The calculation engine requires some improvement."
"Recently, it's become less stable if I am working on Citrix."
"The platform should be a bit more user-friendly."
"I would like to see their data visualization products enhanced and made more robust and easier to implement."
"The initial setup could be simplified."
