Overall Satisfaction with SAP Analytics Cloud

SAP Analytics Cloud is leveraged for self-service analytical needs for our business users.
  • Ad-hoc analysis
  • Real time connection to SAP systems
  • Ability to roll out reports & stories quickly to users
  • Ability to federate data from other sources such as Big Query
  • Planning
  • Custom ML / AI Capabilities
  • Increased data visibility
  • Dashboarding capabilities
  • Quick turnaround
SAP Analytics Cloud fits very well into the quick visualization strategy of our organization. We typically do not want to spend multiple DevOps cycles to get dashboards & reports published and SAP Analytics Cloud helps tremendously in this area.
  • Product Usability
For us, the usability of SAP Analytics Cloud was the main driving factor. Our users were unhappy with typical BOBJ / AO reporting capabilities and wanted a native SAP application to help them with dashboarding and visualization.
