Pros
This product give us the ability to pull reports with ease. Once you have successfully composed a report, you are able to build on the structure as needed.
It's easy to use, the cost is less as compared to tableau or other BI products in the market and customer care is good.
Love how quick and easy it is to use this program. A lot of our major software programs are SAP based and very user friendly.
Cons
I think this is more of how poorly our company rolled this product out, but we are struggling to get through it.
As with any new product there are bugs and errors. I have been frustrated at times with the newer software and sometimes even the more mature software can be frustrating.
Sometimes the layout of things was a little confusing or too cluttered for my taste. I would probably change the layout.

Everythink about data

Reviewed 2 years ago

It is a tool that facilitates the management of all past or future data and the follow-up of KPI at every level. It will help companies make data-driven decisions and provide significant competitive advantage.

Pros

We use SAP BusinessObjects in order to track both operational and strategic company KPI's. The dashboards are very easy to customize. BI tool is very helpful in order to make forecasts.

Cons

Data export is not offered. Dashboards are really helpful. But sometimes user can need to export the data in excel form.

Makes it easy to build complex queries without knowing SQL, I love it!

Reviewed 5 years ago

I use BusinessObjects every single day, multiple times a day. We are transitioning to start having all reporting come from BO as once the reports are setup and scheduled its "set it and forget it" in many cases. We put a lot of focus on automation and reducing the amount of time spent building custom reports and one-off analyses. So we have built numerous reports to support our sales team, operations teams, vendors, and c-suite that are all easily refreshed and filtered by the users on their own. And our analytics and reporting teams now have time to work on larger scope projects rather than being bogged down by requests.

Pros

I love most everything about BusinessObjects. It's a great way for our employees to self-service in many cases as previously they had no way to get access to larger data sets unless they put in a request with analytics. But now our Directors have access to data and reports at their fingertips with minimal training (they don't need an in-depth understanding of databases or SQL queries to use the software).

Cons

A con that is worth mentioning is that exporting large data sets can be a bit slow. But the ease of use and other benefits definitely outweigh that.

Used this for supply chain reporting and metrics analysis

Reviewed 6 years ago
Pros

The best part was the robust enterprise nature of the system. Data quality is controlled centrally by IT and processes and users always know that the data they are getting is good quality and usable. It becomes a single source of truth

Cons

This product is definitely not user friendly. Takes a lot of IT support to get up and running and often if changes are to be made to existing reports also IT needs to get involved. Plus its very pricey and not meant for smaller businesses

SAP Review

Reviewed a year ago

SAP offers a wide array of capabilities. I love how I can track my inventory, my tickets, and my time spent on work orders both service and request. I would definitely recommend this product although there is a bit of a learning curve.

Pros

SAP is a very powerful business tool. I can't speak to some of the features, but after getting it setup, it is awesome for using as a ticketing system. It makes it easy to track both completed and non-completed tickets. My favorite thing about SAP is that it allows you to seamlessly track inventory. It can also be used to move inventory around depending on how it is setup. I also love how everything can be simply exported from SAP into Excel.

Cons

There is a bit of a learning curve for this software. It does take a while to get use to using.

SAP BO - Web Intelligence

Reviewed 2 years ago

Overall experience has been good. It can host a lot of reports which can be scheduled for month end reporting. Automated this application using automation anywhere and reaped a lot of benefits.

Pros

I love the scheduling feature of the reports wherein you can easily schedule reports to be executed on a particular day.

Cons

Reports with data more than 1 lakh rows takes a lot of time and even crashes sometimes
