"There was an issue with the incremental aggregation not working as indicated."
"The organization of the icons is not saved across users."
"The product was not able to meet our 10 second refresh requirements."
"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."
"The solution can improve by having more analytical features."
"Factoring in total implementation and maintenance costs, SAP BusinessObjects is too expensive. If you deal with a huge amount of data, you can go with BusinessObjects. However, if you are a medium-sized company with a modest amount of data, you can opt for another solution."
"It is not simple to use."
"Integrations with things like Active Directory and LDAP tend to be a little complex."
"Over the years, the product tends to rename and rebrand itself and change its direction. This is a deficit of the solution."
"The biggest area for improvement would be the dashboarding capabilities due to the recent change from Xcelsius to Dashboard Designer. This has created a gigantic ripple in many companies because the skill sets required are drastically different."
"Technical support may not always be timely or effective."
