Overall Satisfaction with MicroStrategy Analytics
Microstrategy is used in one of our banking clients. It's used by different areas, some use it for alerts. Others use it as a dashboard solution or for ad-hoc reporting.
- The governance and security layer, with the metadata layer.
- Easy ad-hoc reporting creations.
- Strong dashboard options.
- Merging data from different sources has been improved a lot but it's not easy to create a query manually.
- Training metrics - it's not easy to use for users. But the new method of R integration could change that.
Microstrategy has a more centralized vision, the new version is making an approach to Tableau or Power BI in the data preparation and fast creation of data visualization. QlikView is maybe similar in the vision to centralize the administration. Microstrategy analytics is the response of these tools to Tableau's self service preparation of analysis.
