Overall Satisfaction with SAP Analytics Cloud

SAP Analytics Cloud is mostly used for Planning purposes this year. A community of more than 100 persons are collaborating to build the Budget, MRF and MYP for the marketing department. Close to that, we developed various stories for the service ticket review. Our main source is the BW system where a consolidation of multiple SAP and non SAP systems is taking place.

Pros

  • Aggregation and de aggregation of information to facilitate the planning
  • Live connection to SAP models to have real time dashboards
  • Nice visual presentations

Cons

  • Simplify the access for resources related to adoption of solution (they exists but maybe to be improved)
  • collaborative planning is a must with SAP Analytics Cloud Planning
Good solution if stories are well designed, we developed with SAP Max Attention and were quite satisfied of the results that was obtained. We had some difficulties at the beginning of the project.
Authorizations are well managed, Catalog is also heavily used in our case. Some performance issues are appearing from time to time and some updates done on the platform may have negative impacts resulting in trouble shouting sessions
Power BI is also widely used in the company. Also quite easy to use by end users. But the integration with SAP has some limitations and de aggregation functionalities were not at the same level. Real time reporting was not at the same level as well. Our aim would have been to provide all the planning applications via SAP Analytics Cloud but we will use IBP for tactical planning
