Freelance Copywriter Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 9/15/2021 "Great" 5/5 What do you like best about Infor Birst? Birst uses what it calls “intelligent unification technologies” that map and model data from multiple sources. So whether the data lives in cloud applications, transactional systems, data lakes, or elsewhere, it’s all captured in one consistent view. For example, imagine working with a dozen data sources, each of which has its own definition of “company.” Birst makes it easy to unify these data sources so that they’re all speaking the same language and use the same definition for “company.” To paraphrase Google’s Hal Varian, “Data is like oil—it must be refined before it can be used.” My organization needed a solution that provided both core enterprise reporting capabilities and the data visualization/exploration of a BI tool - all wrapped in a model that allows us to embed both BI assets and creation tools within our web applications. Birst was able to provide just that solution and has been a solid partner. The Birst professional services team was able to get a vanilla implementation up and running for us very quickly, and has been helpful as we've tackled more complex embedding work (crafting an abstraction layer, surfacing the Birst toolset, etc.). Having the combined reporting and BI engines has been key for our users, and we've received positive feedback on ease-of-use for both interactive embedded visualizations and the Birst authoring tools. Because we've OEMed the solution into our products, our non-standard implementation has made interactions with Support challenging at times - our CSMs have always been a huge help. The breadth of solution provided by Birst is a big plus for us - it's a true full-stack offering. The strength of that solution has allowed us to provide a fully cloud-based, embedded set of BI tools within our applications. While there's always a learning curve for BI tools, our users have liked that the Birst authoring tools are relatively intuitive and easy for them to adopt. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Infor Birst? I don't dislike Infor Birst. Birst’s fundamental BI capability is multi-tenancy. This allows the creation of virtual (not physical) BI tenants that relate to one another. Traditionally, organizations depend on physical replication of BI infrastructure, making the process time-consuming and costly. But Birst allows different groups—such as marketing, sales, finance, and more—to use their virtual copies of the data and blend that with their local data to deliver quality results. Say hello to improved consistency and more inter-team collaboration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Infor Birst: Birst allows everyone in the organization to access data quickly and easily thanks to an enhanced user experience (UX) that supports different styles of analytics. Whether you need highly interactive and responsive dashboards or embedded predictive tools, Birst has everything you need to create an adaptive interface, one that allows users to easily interact with business data to make smarter decisions. Even better, you can make decisions more confidently knowing that the data is accurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Infor Birst solving and how is that benefiting you? Birst’s native cloud architecture saves organizations money with a lower total cost of ownership and faster deployments. It also comes with completely open integration so that you can implement it within your IT environment. With Birst, you never need to worry about upgrades. Everything is centrally managed through one single, multi-tenant SaaS infrastructure.

Also we have enabled end users to do Ad-hoc (Self-BI) analytics without having to understand the underlying database. Customers subscribe for this product without having an own an IT department and can still perform analysis on their data which in-turn reduced the total cost of ownership Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
