- Ease of use especially in reporting and preparing intuitive dashboards. Developing web reports is an extension of working on excel on the web
- Easy transition from excel to dynamic web dashboards
- Budgeting and planning is very easy to implement with some dynamic reports
- Visual and easy to follow ETL process that makes it very easy to track each steps in the ETL process
- Ready compatibility with a plethora of modern DB systems
- Ability to run R code as well other programming scripts to automate some tasks
- Simplified security management and admin tasks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Initially the training was absent on the tool so lot of struggle to understand the mechanics behind. Now the training is improving a lot and they are taking steps in the right direction with training.
- It is important to make sure that Excel add-in for the current version of Jedox is safely stored in the organisation. As it becomes difficult to source the add-in for older versions difficult to find.
- Despite being an amazing product, if the entire ETL development is carried out inside Jedox, there is a risk of dependancy on the product in case going forward the organisation want to reevaluate its BI suite, the switching cost will be very high and pretty much start from scratch will be required. A mitigating approach would be to adopt a mixed bag approach by doing major part of the ETL on SQL server or the like and to do the rest in Jedox. Although, considering their constant R&D enables them to keep their product very relevant by packaging new functionalities in newer versions so even end-to-end development in this platform should yield great results if there is a long term commitment to the product.

I like the possibility to automate processes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A bit too slow, impossible to "normally" and quickly copy data from excel, difficult system to insert comments (I would need the same system as excel allows). Difficult and time consuming development process, takes too much time to get things to work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The comments section of inputting and having these flow through the different versions is great. We are still in early stages of implementing, but the system appears to have the functionality we desired. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Flexible modeling capabilities
Excel skills are highly transferable
It suits the agile approach to build a simple model and improve and refine and add complexity over time as Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have noticed a few bugs, especially with the report builder
For ad-hoc analysis, the speed and maneuverability of a Tabular Model through a Pivot Table is still the best, and I wish the JEDOX excel add-in were as easy to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
ability to plan, to splash plans up and down
works with Excel commands and enables to combine database functions with traditional tools
simplifies work and even sals staff can get their some basic data easily
basic functions are easy to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No handbook available in German
Limitation of cells in Excel (65 k rows)
Unsolved bugs - tickets are open (ATVISIO)
requires additional consultancy for updating versions in short terms (high costs)
Browser based technology appears fragile copared with an app/tool like QlikView - drilling up dimensions often fails
Difficult to detect problems why reports are slow and what must be done to speed up performance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The GUI interface for data-driven modeling is great for quickly taking a dataset and turning it into a database. The Excel interface allows me to encourage users to leverage their existing skills to create self-service reports. Plenty of integration/connectors out of the box to connect to other databases.

Data visualizations and dashboards are very Excel like. I am finding it a bit cumbersome to quickly experiment and explore data as I would in other popular BI tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the ease of access to complex levels of data Jedox enables, saving incredible amounts of time and effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
My only issue is the speed at which Jedox can reproduce some data from the server Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
