Team Lead at a government with 11-50 employees
Enables customers to build their own reports, but performance could be better
The most important criterion when selecting a vendor is reliability. I would give this solution a seven out of 10. It does some good stuff, but there needs to be more performance. Make sure that you have really good people working on the server administration, to make sure you're doing it right, the setup is right.

Data Engineer at a insurance company with 10,001+ employees
Reporting on insurance finances has become robust and supports detailed geo-spatial analysis
I am quite satisfied with the reporting part of the product. However, compared to other tools, the modeling part is not as strong. Data modeling is not as easy on MicroStrategy as it is on other platforms. I have worked with the administration tool and the Architect tool for MicroStrategy, but creating a star schema is not as easy compared to other tools. Creating hierarchies and the modeling part is challenging because data modeling is one of the most important aspects of any BI project. If you can create a star schema or Snowflake schema easily, then report building becomes straightforward. Additionally, MicroStrategy's Workstation tool compared to Developer still lacks some functionality that can be done more easily on the Developer side. Workstation is a great tool, but they have not given it full functionality.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"A must have for the business looking to understand their processes in an easy to consume way"
"Rapid development and deployment of solutions with low-cost server-based licensing is attractive in high user count environments."
"People really like the way the reports look, there are lots of fancy bells and whistles on the report designer."
"Self-service reporting modules allow customers to build their own reports."
"I think we have a huge enterprise-wide push to Visual Insight. Our environment has transformed over the last year. We were a strong "grid to PDF," "document to PDF," that's all we did. And then they came in with these Visual Insights and everyone was like, "Wow, that's kind of cool." We created a static reporting portal behind it and now, it's just taken our reports to another level. The level of insight that you get in a 30-second glimpse, it just revolutionized it for us. It gives the user a larger subset of the data so that they can actually maneuver around, rather than being specifically pointed at whatever your document is designed for."
"Their reports are excellent and thorough."
"The most valuable features are drill down, dashboards, documents, bringing everything under one roof, and visualizations."
"I am a report developer and find it a very useful tool."
"I like the user interface and the experience has been great."
"MicroStrategy Mobile application is considered to be one of the best, for almost 4 or 5 years."
"Transaction Services, that was really the part of the tool that made it very compelling for us, because it gave the opportunity to drive action."
"Perfect balance between self-service and governed BI."
 

Cons

"Performance dependant on back-end much more than some other toolsets."
"It needs a much lower price. They are jacking up the price every year, which is wrong."
"The only feature I would like to see at this point is a normalized curve for Histograms"
"I know we are not competing against Tableau, but MicroStrategy needs to step up its game on the GUI side.​"
"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 customisation was difficult."
"It is performing well, but sometimes we have complex requirements and the performance decreases, and then we have to find another way to make it perform again. That is what you encounter when use the project, but that's inevitable because if we would have used another product, we would've had the same thing."
"Cube publish time exponentially increases with MicroStrategy Cube size. Also, it has been observed that the Cube data gets unloaded from MicroStrategy's Cube cache resulting in reports and dashboards being impacted, having no data when executed."
"Initial setup was complex. MicroStrategy is a hard tool to configure in many ways, starting from its licensing schema."
"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,"
"The only problem is report performance."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It needs a much lower price. They are jacking up the price every year, which is wrong."
"The pricing list itself is not publicly accessible, so it's a bit opaque."
"We have a license with packages, and there are additional costs for extra components."
"There is no subscription, I am using the free version."
"For larger businesses, the pricing is logical."
"The pricing for MicroStrategy is always on the higher side. They should seriously start thinking about their pricing and licensing strategy."
"MicroStrategy's licensing cost is higher than that of other tools in the market. My company uses the enterprise edition of the product."
"It is expensive. We would like to extend it to many users, but we are currently restricting that because the cost is a constraint. If we are given a chance, we would love to expand it."
"I am unsure what the licensing costs are for this solution however, development costs are around $100,000 per year."

MicroStrategy vs. Tableau
After a recent presentation, several attendees asked me about the applications of Visual Insights and Tableau. Many companies are investing in both tools and are trying to figure out the right tool for specific applications Tableau has found its sweet-spot as an agile discovery tool that analysts…
