What differentiates SAP BusinessObjects from other similar products?
SAP Business Objects permits the corporate to integrate with external systems, like SIMS Claims and Microsoft office, and mix data from these business analytics and news functions. I prefer that I can simply pull a report. The report that I pull from this technique is student schedules once they’ve been registered for classes. It’s super friendly to use and that I like however I can pull a report and it provides me a few different formats to settle on from rather than simply a typical one.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I use Bi daily. The analysis for office add-on is what I exploit at my place of employment that is a pivot table and makes it straightforward to put data for analysis. It’s easy to use. Also, it’s easy to teach to different regular users. It is convenient to drag information and create calculations and formulas.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The platform is incredibly slow. A million data limit is a joke and most of the charts are simply not intuitive. No data science implementation like R and Python scripts. The dashboard isn’t very interactive and I believe the tools must be rebuilt from beginning to finish. Not fit the purpose.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
I have used this software for a lot of time. It’s a useful gizmo for scripting and developing reports. It’s a straightforward drag-and-drop choice to pick out what variable you wish in your final report. If you’ve got a sizable amount of facilities and have data kept in multiple universes, it permits you to make a combined question and obtain a final report from multiple universes.
