We performed a comparison between Dundas BI and SAP Lumira based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Visualization solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We have now the ability to create interactive and complex reports without the need for software developers and code."
"It was quite easy to use. The UI was basically drag-and-drop based. So, even if you were a beginner at coding software or something else, it would be easy to catch up on Dundas BI."
"We use Dundas to report on machine sensor data and create dashboards."
"The solution has a good drag-and-drop feature for creating dashboards."
"With Dundas BI, you have a lot of visualization choices, and you can also do customizations by using HTML coding and JavaScript. The ease of development was one of the main factors for going for Dundas BI. The client had different reporting tools, but they wanted something that could accommodate all requirements."
"The Layers feature organizes my work and makes it easier, instead of having to use scripting to show and hide when drilling down."
"The best feature is the ease of developing dashboards."
"It is fairly easy and fast when it comes to using it."
"The most valuable features of SAP Lumira are the dashboards, geographical elements, and graph filtering, and the usage is similar to a website which makes it easy to use."
"Geographic hierarchy and the ability to connect with SAP sources, such as CRM, ERP, and BW."
"Beautiful visualizations."
"The most value that Lumira provides is in its ability to consume the Business Objects universe."
"SAP Lumira is the best system in the world, at least in my opinion. I like that it's a stable system and that many people in my company have development experience in SAP Lumira. The solution keeps on improving and has excellent support."
"For every object, references are generated, but sometimes, there was a problem with the references overlapping each other. Everything would go off. It would stop working, and then from the admin side, people had to do something to bring it up again."
"Working with the color palette is difficult in Dundas BI. They can work on different color palettes and make them organized and user-friendly. It would help a long way. Most of the time, the users face challenges in assigning colors to the fields that they have created or to the dimensions and measures in a chart."
"It would be helpful if Dundas made the UI more user-friendly like the leading tools and decreased the learning curve. It should be simpler for a beginner to build dashboards."
"I would love to see more functions built in inside the application, instead of being scripted. They already did some of that in the new release, version 5, like forecasting, trend lines, etc., and I would love to see more of these kinds of calculations, which we used to do it by scripts before."
"Lacks sufficient online support."
"I cannot select a visualization and see what filters are connected to it."
"Lumira uses a lot of memory resources, so the execution of dashboards is slow."
"It needs the ability to drill down more. Analyzing data with Lumira at times becomes a bit difficult."
"It would be great to have more ETL capabilities so that the user can do more cleansing/mining on his/her side."
"Lumira's capabilities feel like that of a store app with the intuitiveness of a desktop app, which is not a good combination."
"SAP Lumira can improve if they game more capability to the end user to prepare dashboards because it's more of an IT task to create them. In Tableau, we can drag, drop, and create. However, in SAP Lumira, we need a designer and a separate KT to be able to do it well."
"I'm not a fan of using SAP Lumira because it requires putting in a lot of information by keyboard directly because it requires some coding, so this is one area for improvement. From a user point of view, SAP Lumira is a complex system to learn and teach, so another area for improvement in the solution is that it needs to be more user-friendly."
"It needs an easier printing feature."
