Avantages

SAP BusinessObjects offre un ensemble de fonctionnalité complète pour la gestion, l'analyse et la visualisation des données de votre organisation

Inconvénients

Sap BusinessObjects est plutôt adapter pour les organisations, donc pas accessible aux petites entreprises et projets de petites taille

Inconvénients

Logiciel assez lourd et compliqué, pas assez souple.

Avantages

SAP BO provides a vast array of capabilities for using data across our companies' systems and provides expansive tools to process and display our data. SAP BO allows us to use large amounts of data across multiple instances (such as EWM, S4, etc.) and consume the data quickly and easily. It also allows for many different reporting designs, formats, and use cases for our reporting needs

Inconvénients

SAP BO is a complex system that sometimes requires knowledge of the schema integration in order to solve issues. This does not allow for everyday users that are not power users to self-service issues and can lead to a developer backlog. Also, our company has run into issues that were only able to be solved by SAP and there was a large lead time in waiting for a solution.

Avantages

I LIKE ABOUT SAP IS THAT ALL THE COMPANY NEEDS IS ALREADY HAVE.

Inconvénients

for me its the invoice printing you need to create other tools for the template.

Avantages

Most like about SAP reporting and visualization capabilities in our daily routine

Inconvénients

Most like least about managing users, especially for large development

Avantages

SAP is good for basic inventory tracking and issuing goods etc.

Inconvénients

The user interface is very poor and outdated, even just to print a screen of an inventory list you have to open a separate window rather than print from that page.

Avantages

We enjoyed using SAP Business because so far it is the only software that we have found that allows us to put together decent, attractive and factual data reports easily and that can analyze data as well. SAP Business has also helped us alot to identify weak spots in our marketing with its amazing analysis tools, it helps us fill in the gaps to stay on top of all the new upcoming trends on the market for our industry. It can be shared shared among us no matter where we are so that we can all work on the same data as a team. We enjoyed using SAP Business because it has the capability to process a large amount of data quickly and helps us put that data into visual graphs that are able to show us real time data that has been analyzed. It can be easily intergrated with Microsoft office as we use power point for alot of our presentations, it allows us the ability to export from PowerPoint to SAP. It easily intergrates with other SAP platforms for more extra functions. It has been great for day to day use and has made us look more professional with their creative interactive graphs and self service capabilities.

Inconvénients

What we least like about SAP is that it can not be used by just anyone a bit of computer literacy is needed as some functions and instructions are a bit hard to understand with out some computer literacy.

Avantages

Complete product life-cycle management system. Ability to manage product development through production with complete accuracy.

Complex configuration and training required.

Avantages

I have been using SAP Business for reporting and data visualization, and it has been very helpful in meeting our organization's requirements. We have connected it with multiple databases such as DB2 and Sybase, and its data storage capabilties are quite robust. The platform is undoubtedly powerful and capable of handling heavy tasks with ease.

Inconvénients

The learning curve is long, training is needed to be able to handle it properly, the user interface needs improvement, so that it is easier and more intuitive to use.

Avantages

Super easy to get things done, such as training

Inconvénients

Sometimes difficult to navigate, in my personal opinion

Avantages

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence is full of functions and features to control and monitor business, and high ability of customization.

Inconvénients

We face two concerns about it, the limitation of integrations with non-SAP modules. and its price is expensive.

Avantages

I appreciate above all its flexibility when I need to create ad hoc reports.It's very powerful, even if a bit complicated at the begining, and it really allows business users to drill down into data and get the information they need.

Inconvénients

It requires an adequate training in order to use it at its best.It's a bit complicated, especially to understand all its functionalities and reporting capabilities.

Avantages

It's intergrated in Microsoft Excel, so I can use all function of Excel on the data download by SAP Business Object.
Normally we have to go to the web version of the reporting tool and download report one by one, but with SAP business Object (Analysis Office), we can insert the data source one time, format it, do calculation with it (using all other Excel function). The next time when you need to update the data. Just simply refresh data source in your formatted file. All data are refreshed while your calculation/format are still there.
You can even write Excel VBA to load data with Analysis Office. It saves you a lot of time to download all reports based on different filter criterion.

Inconvénients

First, it takes time to load if the data is too bid
Second, there is a limit (55 000 lines) on Excel. You can, of course, change the limit, but not everybody knows how to do it (or allowed to do it)
Thirdly, the prompts are not so well-designed and user-friendly. I normally have to scroll down a lot to find the filter. (imagine you have 10 different sheet, scrolling down will take long time).
Fourthly, VBA and Analysis Office are quite complicated to use and the trouble-shooting is quite annoying.

Avantages

The ease at which the reports can be run and downloaded is very good. The extraction can be done in both pdf and excel depending on the requirement. The reports which have been run also show the specifications used in the reporting for the approver to verify.

Inconvénients

The scheduler is not very simple and might require some user guide to understand and schedule the reports. Also, the inbox reports tend to disappear at times and then have to be re-put in inbox.

Avantages

Ease of use and fast in generating reports

Inconvénients

Refresh time needs to be improved particularly to fix issues or errors

Avantages

It's very good and helpful software in business point of view

Inconvénients

It is easy to use and there is no and drawback

Avantages

Easy to use Tools and Data analysis Kits

Inconvénients

Need to adopt some dynamic features like Tableau and Power BI

Alternatives envisagées 

Avantages

What I like most about this software is the many options to change how I view certain information.

Inconvénients

What I least like about the software is the feature is the delete certain information that not needed for good.

Avantages

Using BOBJ has been light years better than previous database front-ends that I utilized, it is full of functions andhas a much more user friendly interface.

Inconvénients

Many of the functions are at a more basic level and require you learning their program to be able to nest them together and get the results you're looking for.

Avantages

SAP is a very powerful business tool. I can't speak to some of the features, but after getting it setup, it is awesome for using as a ticketing system. It makes it easy to track both completed and non-completed tickets. My favorite thing about SAP is that it allows you to seamlessly track inventory. It can also be used to move inventory around depending on how it is setup. I also love how everything can be simply exported from SAP into Excel.

Inconvénients

There is a bit of a learning curve for this software. It does take a while to get use to using.

Avantages

SAP business objects is an easy to learn and use analytical tool especially in the context of self service analytics by end users. One is able to re-use the same query and also share the query with other users as well and modify the query at any given time for customization purposes. It is also fast.

Inconvénients

As with any new tool, there is an initial learning curve to get ramped up - however there is fairly good documentation available for this purpose. In addition, need good network bandwidth especially when there are multiple users trying to run queries at the same time

Avantages

excellent user friendly tool with easy to use features

Inconvénients

installation is bit of an issue for this tool

Avantages

visuality pleasing to the eye,be open to development,Ease of Use

Inconvénients

I don't like another feature this software . generally it meets all my wishes.
