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.

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.

SAP BPC (Business Planning and Consolidation) is being used as part of a larger project integrating several different databases. The end goal is to get the data from some proprietary systems into a format that will line up with SAP and allow timely forecasts and accurate reporting of past sales, billing, etc. It's a useful tool for this type of consolidation, especially when the end goal is SAP.

It is not an intuitive product. I had to be taught how to unhide a tab in Excel because it doesn't let you unhide in the traditional way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC) is the most trusted service for managing work to maintain greater control of corporate finances, with this system is very easy to get analysis reports with high customization and easy access. One of the major benefits of this service is: it is a scalable solution for greater data control and role-based access, it offers access to users through Excel without having to establish a connection with SAP, the software integrates with SAP HANA and SAP Analytics Cloud. In my honest opinion, this service is excellent for simplifying the financial work of its users and its high accuracy allows a complete reduction of errors, in general this service completely exceeds the expectations of users who implement it.

I would like the software to implement new security measures to ensure the protection of its users' data. The system in general is a bit weak when working with large amounts of data records, as the system performance is significantly reduced. Although the software has these deficiencies it is necessary to emphasize that the platform is very optimal to work, it only requires some improvements to perfect the service.

I have noticed that when integrating the software to Excel its loading process takes a long time and causes some inconvenience to its users.

The service compared to others has a great learning curve.

It is necessary that the prices of its licenses are cheaper so that many more people can acquire the platform with more confidence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.
