    Chose TARGIT
    TARGIT seemed to have all the BI tools , but they are not scalable to larger solutions.

    Chose TARGIT
    Targit's in-memory suite of tools can process data very fast. We selected it for the speed of data processing, and availability of all ETL, cube, and reporting capabilities in the same product.

    Chose TARGIT
    While their product is top of the line and works very well for us, we ultimately selected Targit because of their team. We love working with them and they are always super helpful. Whenever we have a request or issue, they are there ready to happily help us resolve it and move …

    Chose TARGIT
    Targit was more expensive, but it was going to be easier for us to add more data sources (Google Analytics in particular) than Jet Reports would have been. I also liked the reporting interface in Targit much better; the ability to click on elements in an object to dynamically …

    Chose TARGIT
    TARGIT is as user friendly as SAP BW, and more user friendly than Crystal Reports. The downside of both TARGIT and BW is that you're limited to the data points provided by IT.

    Targit is very strong when the data is presented to the system. Because of this, we are able to report on almost all of the information that is valuable to us. When we have questions or ideas on how to better leverage Targit, they are great to work with. We track our sales progress/process in Targit and AP tracks things such as outstanding invoices, open invoices, etc

    Pros
    TARGIT
    • Quick start-up and report turnaround time.
    • Easy drag and drop capabilities as well as user friendly command options.
    • Ability to share reports among other users making it easy to use an already created report and simply changing the criteria to suit your own needs.
    • Ability to save a base report that can be modified as needed repeatedly, instead of recreating from scratch.
    • Easy visual for final layout.
    • Ability to run multiple reports within one screen without jumping around.

    Cons
    TARGIT
    • Probably one of our biggest complaints from the user community is the inability for the user to see the details behind the data. I know with the tool you can write reporting services reports that would allow users to see the detail by right clicking on a measure and selecting Actions, but for a very lean IT shop there simply has not been time to build these Actions for every possible scenario a user might want to see detailed reporting on.
    • Another complaint I've heard is the inability for the user to know exactly what the data represents from the source. If Targit had maybe some type of capability to hover over a measure or dimension and see a pop up of a more detailed description this might help resolve that issue.
    • The most difficult concepts to teach our users is how and when to use comparisons and the syntax for calculations. Creating comparisons has become much simpler with the 2k11 release but it is still difficult for my users.

    It is very easy to use and I am proficient at this point to be able to figure out how to run most of the reports I need. I have had the time to "play around" in TARGIT and really teach myself about the visibility settings and other aspects - though other users have needed help with some of these aspects - but once you conceptually understand how to build the reports, it is very simple from a power user perspective.

    Usability

    Everything on the back end needs to be correct, which sometimes it may not be set up or missing some variables. Some of the more difficult parts of Targit require a lot more attention and object creation to work properly

    Make sure all of the back end work is done prior to getting Targit set up. Every variable you may need for calculations needs to be correct and every item needs to be uniform so it is read properly.

    It really met our business requirements when we were searching for a reporting/Bi tool and the flexible business model of being able to introduce additional functionally as your organization grows and requires it made the investment decision the right one for us. The functionality available in comparison to the investment is well worth it.

    Return on Investment
    TARGIT
    • We have been looking at our Product Hit Rate by Customer instead of just looking into Customer hit rate and adjusted our offerings accordingly.
    • Giving people the ability to run their own ad-hoc reports rather than to request them from IT is a great benefit to my department.
