Overall Satisfaction with SAP Analytics Cloud

Planning and reporting within Finance and HR
  • Financial Planning
  • Dashboarding
  • Live data connection to SAP backend systems
  • Data wrangling
  • Automation of data (file) uploads
  • Central place for budgeting & planning, instead of excel and other systems
It has a good overall useability, but at the same time require training to get started. I believe it could be even more intuitive.
  • Cloud Solutions
  • Other
Power BI seem to work easier with other datasources (non-SAP)
