I use SAP Analytics Cloud primarily for building dashboards and running planning and forecasting workflows across finance and operations. It helps me solve data fragmentation by unifying inputs from multiple backend systems into a single source of truth for dashboards and reporting. What I like most is how it combines BI, planning, and predictive analytics into a single platform, which simplifies the overall architecture. This eliminates the need to move data between separate tools and reduces latency issues. The initial setup was straightforward, with prebuilt integrations simplifying the process.

I have issues with SAP Analytics Cloud's performance when handling large datasets or complex models. It would be helpful if engineers had more control over data modeling and execution, like better indexing strategies, partitioning options, and visibility into query plans to optimize processing. Also, while the initial setup with prebuilt integrations is straightforward, it gets more complex with non-SAP systems or advanced planning models, requiring careful data modeling, security configurations, and performance tuning.
