Overall Satisfaction with MicroStrategy Analytics

We are trying to use it across all the organization as the only tool where you can find all the data of the company, making all kind of dashboards for managers and final users. We've also made "live" dashboard showing the status of the company.
The major problem is to make end users move from Excel to MS. The company leaves all this effort to the IT Team and does not make this a strategic decision.
  • Easy of use
  • Has improved a lot the visualization of data
  • Fast
  • For use it take a lot of time to prepare the correct data. I don't know it there is some MicroSrategy magic solution to make it faster
  • Better comunication with client
  • Improve dashboards, losing with competitors
A long time ago we choose MS because their MHT but technology changes and this is not supported as well. Perhaps today I would rethink my decision.
Very well suited for corporate reports, centralized info.
I don't find it very easy for end users not involved in the transformation of reports.
