Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is quick with analysis and calculation. The tool offers high digitalization which helps us to run the controlling department with less number of people. If the software wasn't there, I would need two to three people extra to run the department.""The system is quite flexible. Based on our requirements, we create different cubes that can help us to do complete planning.""The main strength of Jedox lies in mastering the navigation, especially the Excel add-in.""The ease of reporting is one of Jedox's most valuable features.""The customer porting is the most valuable feature.""The solution is very versatile.""The ETL function simplifies many tasks.""The EPM is the most valuable feature."

"Data integration is very useful in Power BI. It lets me collect data from many sources. For example, I can get data from Oracle databases and SQL Server databases at the same time.""The good part of it is that you can do whatever you want with it when it comes to building BI. In terms of languages, it supports Python, and it also natively supports R.""The most valuable feature of Power BI is its ability to provide customized visualizations and insights tailored to specific business needs.""Very intuitive and easy to use.""The visualization part and its inclusion in a cloud-based application are valuable features.""Provides good data flow related to the container and control flow.""I like having the ability to connect Excel files as data inputs.""Premium features that used to cost $5,000 per company per month recently became a lot more accessible. Microsoft recently implemented a per user feature in Power BI Premium; it's $20 per month."

Cons
"The solution needs to improve its support. The visualization in Microsoft BI is more modern and comfortable than Jedox's. I would expect something similar with the solution.""There is not much training for Jedox.""The tool has changed its pricing and it's now too expensive for small and medium organizations. I miss the open-source version which was free and we could do a lot of things with it.""The solution should enable a modern look and feel in the front end.""I don't find it particularly user-friendly.""There is room for improvement in the scalability. It is a very massive tool. It's not easy to just build everything yourself.""Jedox should improve the design and server issues.""More emphasis is needed on the availability of the learning aspect of the solution. Because unless you take up their course that enables you to be an expert in creating the report, you must seek help."

More Jedox Cons →

"Microsoft should offer additional features for visualization and have additional features for slicing and dicing that data.""Real-time refreshing for SAP BW would be nice. We know its on the radar for the development team at MS. ​""There's always room for improvement for Microsoft Power BI, especially for the UX and the menus to make it more accessible to business users.""We would like it if they added more Python libraries in the Power BI service. For Power BI service right now, you can use Python, but it is limited to a few libraries or a few packages from Python.""If you need data in real-time, it's not an ideal solution.""Microsoft BI’s integration and visualization could be improved.""Technical support could be a bit better.""They are improving it all the time. What would be nice is if they could respond to feature requests more quickly. They can provide faster support for new features."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "If you are using SAP, then you will have to take an SAP Connector license. The license across the tool is paying for the people who are using it as an admin or as a normal user. They can work out those costs in a manner that can help. This can also be a point of improvement where they can work out the costing, and the developers have a specific licensing cost. The normal users, who are going to do probably data entry or just going to view the dashboard, can have a separate license cost."
  • "We paid a one-time fee, which included product purchase, licensing, and first-time implementation. We are paying for the maintenance regularly."
  • "Excellent value for money."
  • "The solution's pricing is specific to your requirements."
  • "The product’s pricing will not be suitable for setting up a small solution."
  • "Jedox was a bit cheaper compared to Calumo."
  • More Jedox Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "There is room for at least 45% discount as compared to the initial price."
  • "MS BI comes with all the tools and it is, to the best of my knowledge, the most affordable solution."
  • "All in all, for the price, this is an excellent tool for helping your organization turn mounds of data into useful insights."
  • "I would advise that Microsoft BI products are rightly priced and the licensing is easy to follow and to fulfill."
  • "Remove the cost of a licence to show a dashboard within SharePoint. Why should readers of a dashboard have to pay to view? ​"
  • "Make it low in cost. It is a no-brainer!"
  • "Globally, we evaluated a number of products, including Salesforce's product, Microsoft won on the ground of simple functionally and cost."
  • "Paid for itself in the first month."
