SAP Business Objects is a powerful tool that can be used to accomplish a variety of data requests. It is not an easy to learn platform and isn't very intuitive for first-time users. This program requires attention, training and help for users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the ability to pull detailed transactions from Business Objects. I use it to review financial data such as payables.

Most importantly, you can easily download business objects queries into Excel and use pivot tables. It allows you to save a lot of standard templates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a feature rich mature BI tool set that can achieve the vast majority of what any enterprise needs if you are primarily using Relational databases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Business Objects was primarily a Relational database reporting and analysis tool set, but since SAP bought it, there seems to be a push towards BW as the primary data source. There also seems to be a push towards non-Windows servers; why? 95% of BO installation used to be on Windows servers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
