Pros
"The most useful feature of SAP Analytics Cloud is planning because it helps users with making predictions and forecasts. Clients can forecast, make data allocations, and other actions. The solution is useful for planning.""The features that are most valuable in SAP Analytics Cloud are the planning feature and the predictive analytics feature, though the planning feature needs to be more efficient.""It's so user-friendly.""It's easy to connect Analytics Cloud with other SAP solutions, and it's also effortless to deploy. You don't need much technical skill to set it up. It's as easy as setting up a tablet. I said tablet before. It's very easy to actually set up.""The new Application Design option offers lots of customization options by being able to script in Typescript (similar to Javascript).""The most valuable features are the visualization and user-friendliness.""Easy to use.""The product is flexible and has features like AI, link analysis, and insights. It has many features. I can search, and it creates automatic charts without selecting anything. For example, I can ask, "What is the gross margin?" the tool builds a chart based on my question."

Cons
"Technical support could be more helpful and responsive.""Statistical analysis should be a bit more profound than it is.""The solution should include other scripting languages as well, such as Python.""When it comes to planning there is a concern about the ability to match the exact requirements of the customer with what the product offers.""The budget management could be better.""In the live connection model, we can't create calculated dimensions, however, in the import model we can create them.""There should be more features for the time series charts.""An additional feature that needs to be added to SAP Analytics Cloud is exporting because right now, you can only export to PDF and PowerPoint. It would be good to have multiple export options, for example, to Excel and other apps. Pricing is an area for improvement in SAP Analytics Cloud, apart from exporting."
