Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution's platform analytics gives us real-time analysis of how a particular user uses the report and how the systems behave."
"Comprehensive security control and more."
"I really like the visualizations. I like how you can put large data sets in there, then the user can quickly go through the data and drill down at various levels to understand things."
"Technical support is knowledgeable. The right person gets back to us whenever we email them."
"With the new version that's coming out, I think they have simplified a lot of things. Also, when it comes to the administration part, and sharing, and the collaboration features, they are really great. You can send out comments with a filter to someone in your organization, and if the person clicks on it, he actually sees what you are seeing. So that's really great."
"The data governance leads people to trust the data that they have, and they know where to get it."
"Has a great semantic layer."
"I find MicroStrategy the most suited to the enterprise-wide BI platform, because of its scalability and stability."
"The tool is a cloud-based solution capable of integrating any kind of data in the world."
"The most valuable feature of Salesforce Einstein Analytics is the reporting tools."
"Tableau CRM is a very capable solution. It is easy to use, user-friendly, and integrates well."
"It's scalable."
"The way Salesforce Einstein Analytics is structured in terms of the work assignments and the user profile is very 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."
"he most valuable feature of the solution is its ease of use."
"MicroStrategy is dragging behind other tools on the self-service visualizations, like Tableau. I would rate Tableau as a 10. For the same visualizations, I would say MicroStrategy is an eight, maybe nine. They're still behind on the self-service visualizations,"
"Data writeback, and on-the-fly predictive analysis results from R and Python could be improved."
"If there are some advanced visualization features - maybe I'm not aware of them - but if there were a Vitara which could work on top of MicroStrategy, it would make sense for MicroStrategy to have that within their own library. So they should add more visualizations to the library."
"The graphs available for the new dashboard of version 10 are weak."
"It crashes multiple times for even small changes that I make on the fly in the dashboard. After doing all the necessary changes, the MicroStrategy desktop or even the web version kicks the users out, and all the changes are lost. This functionality is buggy in MicroStrategy. It is hard to keep track of all the changes that I have done before. I don't want to make copies of each change that I have made because I would end up creating a hundred dashboards. It is not feasible in a real environment. I haven't worked on integrating MicroStrategy with the cloud. I am not sure how it behaves in the cloud, but I have heard from a few of my friends that there are some hiccups when you kind of sync to the cloud through MicroStrategy."
"We would really like to see MicroStrategy have some support teams based more in Europe, because for now it seems that there is one person for the whole CE region. That is not exactly what we would like to see. We do know that MicroStrategy supports most places, either in the US or India, but those are different time zones, people, and cultures."
"I would like to see more integration."
"It needs row-level security, column-level security, on attributes. I want to be able to handle full-scale security model from the semantic layer, flat out."
"There are some offerings like Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, and Marketing Cloud that have very useful online learning options. There need to be more avenues for self-learning with this particular solution. That would be useful."
"Einstein Analytics could incorporate something like SFIA 8 to help users understand the underlying skill sets."
"They have a lot of opportunity to improve BI tools. With Einstein Analytics, we have a very minimal scope."
"Improvement-wise, I feel the solution must be more robust since it is not exactly ready to handle large data."
"When it comes to generating reports, it appears that many users rely on experts to handle technical aspects. For instance, if you require a weekly report displaying accounts transitioning in and out of your modules, it seems challenging to accomplish without consulting experts for assistance. Such tasks should be user-friendly and easily achievable without external assistance."
"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."
"If a user leaves your organization, you shouldn't lose the visibility of all of the records."
"The tool needs to simplify its features."
