Overall Satisfaction with SAP BusinessObjects Lumira

Lumira is used by our organization for giving an integration product to cater to SAP Lumira users. As SAP Lumira gives better visualization, better decision making, we made a plugin to record the objects through Lumira and use it efficiently for better decision making.

Business Problems:
Amazing data visualization, make better-informed
decisions on all types of business data. Start combining spreadsheet data with
trusted enterprise data and share your data-driven stories.
  • SAP Lumira works perfectly well as a stand-alone data visualization tool. If you happen to possess other SAP applications in-house, it instantly becomes an all-encompassing analytics powerhouse.
  • SAP Lumira makes a near seamless jump from being an enthusiast’s pretty graphing tool to a really serious enterprise BI tool in seconds
  • Share actionable insights with enhanced business intelligence reporting
  • Combine data from multiple sources
  • Visualize data and analyze trends
  • Share infographics and data stories
  • Deliver critical information on mobile devices
  • Drive better performance with high-impact dashboards and BI applications
  • Calculated measures with distinct counts not supported on SAP Lumira Server or SAP Lumira Cloud
  • In SAP Lumira, data acquisition from SAP HANA does not support the multi-db feature
  • In SAP Lumira Cloud and SAP Lumira Server, when acquiring data from a UTF-16-encoded CSV file, an error occurs. Only UTF-8-encoded files are supported.
Data Analysis is best suited with Lumira compared with any other product. Visualisation and decision making is best thing you would recommend using Lumira for.
SAP Lumira was mainly used in marketing to analyze potential markets and histories of sales. It was initially small exercises to learn the use of SAP Lumira, which were almost unnecessary because it was so easy to use, and beyond that was an actual analysis of data. We also used it for management reports and were able to use the graphics and features to make understandable charts and graphs.
