Invaluable tool
We are able to customize the program to accurately meet our companies needs.
Pros
SAP makes my job easier on a daily basis by helping to manage company data. It allows me to more easily manage my analytical processing as well.
Cons
A bit complicated and definitely takes some time to learn to navigate the system.

Review of SAP
We are able to mass communicate our sales to our entire team, which can then be trickled down to our partners.
Pros
I like the ease of pulling the data and be able to display it.
Cons
At times, it is slow to load and update. Many times we have to restart all together.

SAP Analytics cloud: Real time analytics.
Pros
Excellent cloud analytics with live connections gives instant data fetch. User Interface is very easy to use and very easy to create financial statements.
Cons
Expensive software. And setting up for first use is difficult. I would suggest that they should have a better tutorials for beginners.

A lot of promise, little functionality
Since we started using SAP Analytics Cloud, the problems increased instead of decreasing. The experience of planning became a nightmare, where we realized that many calculations can not be made or that it is necessary to perform up to 9 calculations to obtain a result that in another tool would be obtained with one and only one calculation. In real time, the planning carried out on an excel sheet ends up being faster and easier to perform than using SAP Analytics Cloud.
Pros
Easy to use Graphics with a striking and modernist aesthetic
Cons
Constant server errors Little or no information about the errors The planning model does not allow the entry of data in calculated accounts. Which, forces the user to have "Account Plan" and "Account Import" to formulate "Consolidated Account" as "IF (version = plan, [Account Plan], [Account Import]) .This makes the planning for each account complex calculated and if there is more than one version the problem rises exponentially. Very few formulas to perform calculations Serious performance problems due to the use of Lookup formulas Some complexities must be solved with the use of script, which is not easy to learn for the end user, eliminating all automation options and returning to archaic and manual systems. Each use of srcipt must be executed with a button. However, the waiting time can not exceed 5 minutes. Otherwise, the action is not executed. I had to have 12 buttons to execute a single action.

Great tool for revenue analysis
Pros
There is a bunch of resources such as chart structures, revenue and KPI analysis.
Cons
It could have more options to designs in graphs.
