Lumira -- has promise
June 08, 2016
Cool Tool
Tableau is used by many in my business and is easier to learn.
June 08, 2016
my feedback for Lumira
The reason I selected Lumira is that it's a user friendly, self service BI tool and more compatible with HANA
June 08, 2016
Lumira - for the existing SAP BI customers
There is lot to improve to match up with Tableau, but based on current BI platform in the organization & licensing models, ti was easy to go with Lumira which was meeting the basic requirements.
June 08, 2016
Seeing the light with Lumira
Not as easy to quickly connect to data sets and create and share visualizations with others. Lumira has other strengths in which it allows to push back data or data schema you've created back to HANA. Also, SAP roadmap to integrate it with Design Studio will allow it to have a bigger and broader reach for local and global dashboarding capabilities and data visualization.

Lumira Review for the Average or Power User
The field is fairly even. I'm a big fan of SAP products so I found it a bit more interesting and less complex to play with. Tableau may be more powerful, but for powerful BI works SAP has other tools. This tool works great for the average companies small and medium analytics and visualization needs just as nicely, if not better than, Tableau or SAS.

Lumira ...........Almost there !
We use SAP BW as our datawarehousing layer.It is easy to integrate Lumira with the current setup.
June 08, 2016
SAP Lumira Stands out
1) User Experience of SAP Lumira was better
2) Easy to use
3) We already have SAP platform
2) Easy to use
3) We already have SAP platform

Lumira - Not Now Maybe Future
- Tableau and IBM Cognos
Just for trial since its SAP product and the lisence was free intially for SAP Lumira if you have HANA but I would not recommend it for people who would have to buy this product from SAP. The other ad hoc tools are far ahead in the game. Please look at Gartner for BI tools Quadrant

SAP LUMIRA 1.29 - Review
- It's tightly integrated with SAP BI suite 4.0.
- Quick development of stories, dashboards in Lumira is one additional reason to select the tool.
- The tool has lower licensing fees compared to others. I guess it comes free with BI Suite.
June 08, 2016
Lumira Vs Tableau
It was for a high data volume POC
June 08, 2016
Lumira Review
I actually use Tableau more often than Lumira.
June 08, 2016
Promising product
- SAP Dashboard
This is by far easier to use.
June 08, 2016
SAP Lumira Tops My Easy to Use List
SAP Lumira is generally inferior to Tableau in its visualization, filtering of data, and general range of features.
June 08, 2016
Amazing business decision-making tool
- SAP HANA and SAP Business Objects
Data Analysis is best suited with Lumira compared with any other product. Visualisation and decision making is best thing you would recommend using Lumira for.
June 08, 2016
Lumira- easy to create elegant visualizations
Other products cannot work with existing SAP infrastructure. They cannot leverage the security and trustworthiness of SAP infrastructure. They provide the native connectivity to SAP systems and data warehouses. SAP provides good support for these analytical tools such as Lumira and design studio. Also we are a SAP shop obviously our IT supports anything from SAP.
We have SAP BW and BO thats why we selected Lumira.

Lumira beginners review
Ease of use was the reason I recommend it. Also I really enjoyed the "story" feature which had a really nice professional looking template that was impressive. I especially liked that the charts and data can be exported as a pdf or image file or just data as an Excel file.
June 03, 2016
Easy to use, resourceful resource!
Lumira was the only product we tried per Corporate requirements.
June 03, 2016
Easy to use and powerful business intelligence tool
The main advantage of SAP Lumira is its ability to connect to the servers quickly and it is more ideal for connecting to SAP. We wanted to connect to the SAP HANA server to analyze the data and we thought Lumira was an ideal choice.

SAP Lumira from SAP HANA for RightOn
I have looked at many visualization tools and Lumira was the easiest to deploy, quickest to deploy, and had a very easy to use UI.

Standalone Lumira as a BI tool
The MicroStrategy platform is faster and the joins are much more natural. However, Lumira is very easy to install and configure.

Project management Lumira
- Excel
Better Settings and Templates. Easier to use.
PowerBI - very intuitive - more so than SAP Lumira with a very small learning curve. Able to plot graphs and charts by typing in natural language. IBM Watson - not as intuitive, but quite powerful. Able to plot and suggest or propose findings by parsing and analyzing data (very cool) Lumira is not able to plot by natural language or propose charts as well, but it is overall much more friendly and robust. It comes in cloud and desktop client versions.
