I like how SAP Analytics Cloud allows you to compare company costs directly and intuitively through the use of charts. I prefer to see data through a chart rather than in tabular form. Additionally, I definitely appreciate the 'Stories' through which we can build useful charts for users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Let's say it's a bit complicated to integrate SAP Analytics Cloud with other systems that are not SAP, for which there is already a native integration. Moreover, it was a bit complicated to initially configure SAP Analytics Cloud, especially without knowing the tool. It took us several months before starting.

I find SAP Analytics Cloud intuitive and flexible for management reporting. I like that with SAP Analytics Cloud, I can create report dashboards fast, and I also appreciate that it can do planning. The planning feature is impressive because it takes data from actual sales to perform predictive analysis. The different kinds of graphs, like pie charts and trends, show clearly the trends against actuals, which is very useful for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have issues with connection to other systems and performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the data visualization tools in SAP Analytics Cloud. It's much easier to share insights and manage data when it's presented in a visual way. Once I got familiar with the interface, it became very clear and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is a bit clunky and very hard to understand what is going on from the beginning. Sometimes I feel like there is too much going on on the screen. As a new user, it would be cool to be either onboarded better or have a simplified view. It's a bit hard to create your first chart or document. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It integrates with BDC and other SAP products. The UI is OK, and performance is also OK. However, it’s more expensive than other solutions, and the AI features feel like they’re lagging behind. Support also used to be faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SAP’s strategy is sometimes not clear. Some features feel outdated and haven’t been refreshed in a long time. Other features seem unnecessary, because they also exist in BDC. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very flexible and offers a user friendly UX. We integrate SAP BW and external data to process planning and accrual data. Moving to S4Hana, I expect automatic data transfer to work out of the box. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For Reporting, it is too hard for end users to build models. You require specialised teams and scaling a high number of apps leads to support bottlenecks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love SAP Analytics Cloud for its real-time data, interactive dashboards, and forecasting tools, which make reporting faster, more accurate, and actionable. It helps me access real-time, centralized data, eliminating manual consolidation and reducing errors. It speeds up reporting, ensures data accuracy, and allows me to create interactive dashboards for trends, variance analysis, and forecasting, enabling more insightful, data-driven decisions.

One area that could be improved is performance with very large datasets, as dashboards can sometimes load slowly. Also, advanced customization options for certain visualizations are limited compared to specialized BI tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What people like best is the speed to insight. It removes the "middleman" steps of exporting data to Excel or waiting for an analyst to build a custom report. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You'll likely dislike SAC if you want a quick, lightweight tool for simple data visualization. It is a heavy-duty enterprise machine; it’s powerful and deep, but it can be slow to move and frustratingly complex for simple tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

combines business intelligence, planning, and predictive analytics into one unified, cloud-based solution. Its seamless integration with SAP systems and strong built-in planning capabilities make it especially powerful for real-time, data-driven decision-making. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dependency on good data governance: Without well-organized source data and strong governance, it’s easy to build models that are hard to maintain or scale.

• Cost and licensing complexity: For smaller teams or departments, the licensing structure and overall cost can feel high compared to simpler analytics alternatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the 'injection of data' aspect of SAP Analytics Cloud quite helpful. The easy way to use Hana data is valuable to me, and I appreciate the decent format it offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The out-of-the-box reports in SAP Analytics Cloud have been easy in some cases but can be difficult to use. The initial setup was very difficult and required multiple partners to fix issues, with less support from SAP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like the most about it is how seamlessly it blends data visualization, planning and predictive analysis at the same place. Integration with the other SAP products is just amazing, easy to impement with the use of their top notch customer support. The dashboard is easy to customize, making it easier to use most of the time. I use it almost everyday to check on the KPIs and present data to the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would say it is mainly the learning curve, it is not very easy to use from the first day. However, if you get used to it, it will make a lot of your job easier Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
