Competence Leader - BI at Sabris CZ s.r.o.
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.
Varun Khandavalli - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Specialist Engineering Dev. & Integration at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Efficient data integration and good automation with challenging configurability
The application has a difficult-to-use parsing capability, which requires a lot of reengineering when the use case isn't specifically met. The application also lacks capabilities within its terminal commands that are not available in their GUI. It requires a lot of configurability, which could be streamlined for an enterprise application user.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"SAP Business Data Cloud has positively impacted my organization by federating SAP data, which is now available for all to use."
"The planning functionality is good."
"SAP Analytics Cloud is superior to other tools in terms of planning and forecasting."
"SAP Analytics Hub offers a user-friendly interface with effortless configuration, seamless updates, and real-time availability of information. It avoids the complexities associated with batch processing, providing a smooth and efficient experience."
"The most valuable features are on the application side, where you can design applications into your analytics on the platform."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"Using these connectors has significantly impacted our workflow and data integration with third-party tools."
"The best features SAP Business Data Cloud offers is basically one solution for all analytics and planning applications, and the integration of all the third-party as well as SAP data sources in one platform allows us to deliver machine learning, analytics, and planning, making the decision-making process very easy with one platform."
"The ingestion engines were pretty good."
"The crawler agents they provide, as well as TetraScience exclusive parsers, allow for specific instruments that we use in our labs with proprietary formats to extract data and put it into more standard formats for various purposes."
 

Cons

"Could be more user-friendly; somewhat complicated to use."
"I am not happy with the predictive analytics features and smart features offered by the product, making them areas where improvements are required."
"SAP Analytics Cloud should improve the dashboard."
"I would not say SAP Business Data Cloud is stable at this point because we receive new updates and fixes from SAP every week."
"Some algorithms are complex and can't be processed by just tagging the data and expecting results."
"The security, authorization, and live connection to the back-office system features can be improved."
"What I dislike about SAP Business Data Cloud is that the way they position the data products is a little confusing for users because it is fundamentally different whether you're using data products that SAP delivers."
"From a learning perspective, there needs to be better support from SAP. The learning documentation and software are not as robust as I would hope from SAP's side."
"While functional during ingestion workflows, the automation toolkit required manual processes."
"The application has a difficult-to-use parsing capability, which requires a lot of reengineering when the use case isn't specifically met."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The platform is about 50% more expensive than Power BI."
"Its licensing is on a monthly basis."
"The premium option is very expensive at five thousand dollars. I use the nine hundred and ninety-nine dollar option."
"Its price is slightly on the higher side."
"The product is expensive."

"The product is expensive."
