"BI analysis done from multiple data sources and in different formats, accessible via any platform."
What do you like best about SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence (BI)?

I like that aside from creating back end data sources, using SAP BOBJ requires minimal IT work. It is very user friendly and you can write basic calculations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence (BI)?

It contains some visual ability but doesn't measure up to other BI visualization softwares out there. There is a limit to how much data you can pull and the larger the dataset the slower this works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Does not belong to the 21st century"
What do you like best about SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence (BI)?

Almost nothing. It is just not intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence (BI)?

The platform is very slow. One million data limit is a joke and most of the charts are just not intuitive. No data science implementation such as R and Python scripts. Dashboard is not very interactive and I believe the tools needs to be rebuilt from start to finish. Not fit for purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
