Overall Satisfaction with SAP Analytics Cloud

Sap Analytics Cloud is used as a visualization and planning tool in our organization. As a developer, I feel the tool is good for planning and visualization of use cases. A single tool with seamless integration with Datasphere offers robust modelling features and also planning functionality. Easy for users to use the tool.

Pros

  • Visualization
  • Planning
  • Self service.

Cons

  • Specific formatting in widgets.
  • More charting options.
  • More formatting options.
  • Alternative for Excel.
  • Excel add in.
  • Powerful planning.
I am giving a good rating for this tool because this is the only tool in the market with planning and analytics features. With seamless planning, the modelling ability makes this tool more powerful now, which is allowing us to use this for all our requirements without switching to multiple tools for each feature.
Anaplan is a tool for planning, but with very less reporting options. Integration of Anaplan with SAP source is always a problem and has very less connection possibilities. Even though Anaplan provides very powerful planning features, we have to use multiple tools in the architecture, which SAC is replacing effortlessly, hence I prefer SAC anytime.

Yes

Would you buy SAP Analytics Cloud again?

Yes

The tool is very powerful for planning, and the Java API provides good customization options for developers. The performance of the tool is an area of improvement. The number of widgets allowed for usage in a story is very less to achieve good performance. The tool needs very high-bandwidth internet to work, but we don't always have this situation.
