What do you like best about SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence (BI)?

The best part of BO is that there are many different cuts of data that can be stored and accessed in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence (BI)?

Where to start? First of all, the system is very slow and not intuitive at all. Maybe its the way it was set up but it does not provide for a clean and enjoyable user experience. The interface also makes it difficult to export and save reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence (BI):

Consider using something else. Though at first it seems like Business Objects will be implemented to make your life easier, the opposite is true. You will spend long days waiting for the servers to respond, and when they finally do, you most likely will still not have the results you want. Also when it comes time to export your data, the options and process for it is very slow and inefficient. Good luck and I implore you to look elsewhere for your business data needs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence (BI) solving and how is that benefiting you?

The problem being solved is access to data, but this is done extremely inefficiently. The only benefit is multiple user access at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
