Pros
"Geographic hierarchy and the ability to connect with SAP sources, such as CRM, ERP, and BW.""The most value that Lumira provides is in its ability to consume the Business Objects universe.""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.""The best feature is the ease of developing dashboards.""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.""Beautiful visualizations."

Cons
"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.""Lumira uses a lot of memory resources, so the execution of dashboards is slow.""It would be great to have more ETL capabilities so that the user can do more cleansing/mining on his/her side.""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.""Lumira's capabilities feel like that of a store app with the intuitiveness of a desktop app, which is not a good combination.""It needs the ability to drill down more. Analyzing data with Lumira at times becomes a bit difficult.""It needs an easier printing feature."

More SAP Lumira Cons →

"It needs more presentation/charting capabilities and integration with GIS."

More Yellowfin Cons →

Pricing and Cost Advice

  • "In terms of cost, SAP Lumira is less affordable."
