Centralizes customer data for fast analytics but has struggled with many concurrent data pipelines
Hevo could be improved as we hit limits, particularly when it couldn't keep up with the high number of databases we wanted to sync frequently—ideally updating everything hourly for near real-time analytics rather than a day behind. We found that with many pipelines, performance degraded. After discussing with Hevo engineers, I learned that Hevo is designed for fast individual pipelines, but struggles with many concurrent pipelines. They suggested that consolidating data from fewer pipelines with more fields would perform better, but even that failed when I tested it with a Business Central database that had numerous fields. Hevo does have limits on the number of pipelines it can manage concurrently and on the number of fields in a single pipeline.Additionally, the API was slower to release compared to the user interface and was not feature-complete, which was frustrating. That said, Hevo actively worked on bridging many gaps. Overall, these were significant pain points I encountered.

Brings reporting, planning, and prediction together in one seamless workflow
I think the areas of SAP Analytics Cloud that could be improved or enhanced are mentioned by users or companies, and they would definitely mention the price in terms of planning licensing. From a consulting point of view, I don't see any major weaknesses. It is reasonably well-developed, and the perfect strength is that innovations are coming on a quarterly basis. It is slightly behind other tools in terms of the number of graphical outputs. Some tools have it faster, but every increment of innovations contains new features. On the other hand, it is perfectly fitting to the SAP environment, with seamless integration to all SAP modules, not only ERP but also SuccessFactors and other tools from the SAP family, for example, integrated business planning for the production planning. This is really a highlight compared to other tools.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Hevo has positively impacted my organization by ensuring excellent usage of collected data, which is utilized in various workflows, including sales and marketing and customer relationship management, ultimately helping me serve clients better."
"Hevo positively impacted my organization by allowing us to move data quickly and easily, enabling us to focus on our real challenge: performing analytics and reporting out of Snowflake with all customer data centralized despite using various applications."
"SAP Business Data Cloud is quite helpful for live data reporting, replication, and data transformation."
"A robust solution."
"We are satisfied with the technical support from SAP because when we reached out, we were able to get very good support from SAP colleagues."
"SAP Analytics Cloud allows you to quickly perform various tasks in terms of virtualization. CyberArk itself requires some enhancements to better connect with other technologies. While it's easy to connect with SAP, using analytics tools may sometimes necessitate sourcing information from different platforms. You might need data from SAP or other technologies/platforms to access specific information not available within SAP. SAP is effective for managing storage and enhancing virtualization capabilities."
"Visualization is quite seamless and awesome. Once the data messaging is set up, it's straightforward and simple to select how it should be displayed. So, that's another advantage of SAP."
"Considering the reporting part, I rate the tool a nine out of ten."
"I like the predictive features of SAP. It's easy to use tools for an end-user."
"The visualization feature is the most valuable. SAP Analytics Cloud is also very easy to use."
 

Cons

"There are areas where Hevo could improve, particularly regarding its cost structure, as the pricing is based on usage and the advanced features can become costly for startups that are not well-established."
"Hevo could be improved as we hit limits, particularly when it couldn't keep up with the high number of databases we wanted to sync frequently—ideally updating everything hourly for near real-time analytics rather than a day behind."
"Some of the standard visualizations, such as a speedometer or a goal chart, are not there and should be added."
"The price, integration, and modeling capabilities could be better. I have to use an integration engine to integrate our products and databases. SAP Analytics Cloud is made specifically for KPIs and business intelligence. The modeling capabilities are kind of poor. You always have to model the data and then present it visually in SAP Analytics Cloud. In the next release, I would like to have a lite version for planning to create scenarios quickly. For me personally, planning is the most complicated feature of SAP Analytics Cloud."
"Could be more user-friendly; somewhat complicated to use."
"The platform could easily integrate with other ERP data solutions. Additionally, it should be faster compared to competitors in the cloud space."
"Faster implementation of new functions for the new product is an area of improvement in SAP Analytics Hub."
"We need to know that we are using the latest and greatest, and SAP appears as if it has lost some credibility in the market."
"Although it might be too early to assess fully, I have seen some return on investment so far."
"For improvement, I would like to see more customizable dashboards, better reporting flexibility, and additional automation for data management tasks in SAP Business Data Cloud."
