Overall Satisfaction with SAP Analytics Cloud

[It's being used for] Corporate reporting. Project for M&S was the first implementation but more business functions will be adopting it in the coming months.
  • Simplicity for self-service scenarios
  • Connectivity
  • Nice design
  • Some features available in Lumira Designer/Design Studio are not available yet
  • Mobile app only available for IOS devices - Should be a native app also for Android
  • It should support multiple IdPs since the beginning (planned in roadmap for future)
Better integration with SAP BW for building corporate dashboards
SAP Analytics Cloud is well suited for self-service reporting against SAP sources. It is less appropriate for very complex dashboards until the Analytics Designer evolves.
