Do you think SAP Analytics Cloud delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with SAP Analytics Cloud's feature set?

No

Did SAP Analytics Cloud live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of SAP Analytics Cloud go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy SAP Analytics Cloud again?

Yes

In my opinion the SAP Analytics Cloud Stories part have less flexible option to end users to do analysis. Also if some features are not available in story we have to recreate the entire dashboard in Analytical application which is a wast of time for a developer. We we have a toggle where we can switch between story and application it will be easier to work with the tool.
