Not the best Business Intelligence Tool

  • November 01, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's a rather flexible tool in regards to the multiple optiond you have to develop reports and dashboards. It also provides multiple options for users to access whatever is developed in it, via email, pdf, excel, directly into it, and not requiring a registered account to accomplish this.
What do you dislike about the product?
It sometimes is very complicated mainly when defining datasources, datasets and metrics, since it requires local addresses and it's setup by highly priviledged users only.
Another challenge is sending dashboards and reports to people. It uses contacts and subscriptions which becomes a little bit complicated felm time to time to configure.
The desktop development app constantly crashes, being unreliable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Distributing reports to multiple contacts in the organization easily through an excel file arriving to their email address. Creating different schedules to reach more clients and their different needs of data visualization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Read documentation carefully, take your time to plan and structure directories. Define what are the main uses and the greatest value you want to get from this suite and make sure more than one collaborator specializes in everything regarding usage, design and development.

Average BI tool - Microstretegy MSTR

  • December 29, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The MicroStrategy analytics platform supports multiple reporting styles and device types so that users can get their data as per the company needs.
I like the desktop version of it more. Its very easy to create metrics and use them in different reports. Multiple people can work together on a particular project.
What do you dislike about the product?
Get small bugs that really trouble sometimes. Also, the customer support is not very robust. There are forums but cannot find trusted answers to all the problem-related queries.
Architecture few is the slowest to make complete structure for data modelling. Working on FreeForm SQL is easy but that not the complete benefit of BI tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The overall experience was good. I used it for about 1 year while I was working for Business Analytics. Business decision and data for taking action. Working on Intelligent cube data/reports are faster and easy to use. Using reports for daily schedule , Alerting system to check on KPI.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easy to setup , working on freeForm is easy . Intelligent cubes makes reports faster.
