What do you like best about SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC)?

I came to Sap BPC after testing and implementing Sap business Warehouse I am currently running version 11 and I must say that what this company has achieved is a very complete advance I want to detail that the configuration of Planning and Consolidation for this version has improved in terms of interface and solids. In practice to be able to manage and automate your work is a success for all of us who work in IT today. I like the drop down menu that they offer having direct access to the library and activities I can also manage the monitor and plan the days all the buttons are well distributed. Being able to have multiple pages open makes my job easier, I can go to one tab and then another very easily. Sap offers an excellent installation manual as well as support available throughout the day to respond to problems with the installation or usability of your software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC)?

The Templates of the version I am currently running in some cases give errors. For new users who haven't used any version of Sap in the past they may experience confusion when running the system they are offered. They have an option called my favorites where you can access directly to your projects of interest but in 2 occasions the program was closed when trying to access this menu. The schedule offered by SAP despite being updated needs more work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC):

I have not recommended software that I do not implement professionally SAP has created an excellent service for automation and data analysis. The price this company offers for its updated license could be high compared to other services I have used in the past but it is very remarkable what it has delivered to its users with version 11.

What do you dislike about SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC)?

Although the software is designed in terms of functioning to be used in small organizations in terms of cost structures is not the most economical and this makes that many small organizations are restricted to acquire the service, it is necessary that more manageable pricing structures are developed for small companies, since this will allow many more to enjoy this service, from my personal opinion this is the only weakness that I have observed of this tool.

Recommendations to others considering SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC):

The operation of this service is very good I recommend it to acquire if you know very well the work to be done in your business, because in some cases its implementation is a little complicated to do, if you are a novice I recommend that you work with people who have experience using SAP because the interface of this service is very large and can cause many confusions when using it, the platform offers many advantages and is a very good alternative among other similar.
