What is MicroStrategy Analytics?

The MicroStrategy platform differs somewhat from competing platforms in that it does not include a data warehouse.

The platform integrates with a wide range of third-party data warehouses however. MicroStrategy also built a free discovery/visualization tool called MicroStrategy Analytics Desktop, which is not completely integrated with the rest of the platform. MicroStrategy has strong mobile and cloud capabilities which are differentiators for the platform. MicroStrategy's cloud offerings are unique in that they host the software in their own data centers and allow customers to keep their data on-premise to alleviate security concerns. Analytics is a platform for Business Intelligence (BI) and self-service analytics. It enables organizations worldwide to analyze the vast amounts of data stored across their enterprises to make better business decisions.

MicroStrategy currently has 3 versions:

MicroStrategy Analytics Enterprise: Enterprise-grade business intelligence
MicroStrategy Analytics Desktop: Free self-service visual analytics
MicroStrategy Analytics Express: Free cloud-based self-service visual analytics

MicroStrategy Analytics is well suited for data analytics, data visulaizations and due to its wide range of integration with various data sources. Its all features work well. It is well suited for handling large and complex data with ease. It is less suited as there is complexity in use for new users. Its advance features are tricky and trainings required. It is less suited for cost factor that may be reduced.

If you need an on-premise solution in your own data center, [I feel like] the options are starting to become limited, and MicroStrategy Analytics is one of them. Just don't expect it to be good, or supported.

Well suited for: Creating Dashboards- This can handle high amount of data that too good amount of data manipulation flexibility. Dashboards can be modified pretty quickly and addition of data is also easy. Mirroring same dashboards is also easy where new view can be created and can be saved. There are lot of other benefits as well in terms of accessing data easily.
