Overall Satisfaction with SAP BusinessObjects Lumira
I used Lumira to visually analyse large volumes of plant originated data and manipulate it to improve the ease of analysis. I was evaluating it as an option for inclusion in a product that would be deployed to our end user customers.
Pros
- It's good as a data visualisation and investigation tool.
- Very simple and intuitive to use.
- It is far better than using products like Microsoft Excel for this purpose.
Cons
- There are constraints on the mechanisms used to import the data. For example, I was importing data from a .CSV file containing separate numeric and text representations of the date associated with the other data in the row. Lumira was unable to directly interpret these data as time & date fields without splitting the text information into individual columns.
- The data manipulation functionality for imported data could be improved, particularly the ability to create sub-columns derived from data already in the source table
