Executive SummaryUpdated on Jan 1, 2025

SAP Lumira and Dundas Dashboard compete in the data visualization and analytics space. Dundas Dashboard appears to have the upper hand due to its comprehensive features that justify its higher cost.

It also offers various visualization options tailored for SAP ecosystems. Dundas Dashboard provides advanced customizability, robust data connection capabilities, and features that allow for the creation of complex dashboards on the fly. Its support for a wide range of data sources and real-time visualizations make it highly adaptable for different business needs.

Room for Improvement: SAP Lumira could improve flexibility in data source connections beyond SAP systems and enhance its customization options for greater user-specific needs. Additionally, the learning curve for non-technical users could be better addressed. Dundas Dashboard might improve by offering more affordable pricing models to attract smaller businesses and enhancing ease of use for those without technical expertise.

It has significantly increased our productivity but it forces users who are viewing the reports for the first time to install Silverlight which isn't supported by Google Chrome.

Previously, we had five people doing separate reports in Excel. Each report looked different, and every month we would have to recreate them with a different set of data. With Dundas, we can now enforce a standard using themes so that all the reports have the same look and feel no matter who creates it. Also, it now automates our monthly reports so all we need to do is update the data in a database, and the report updates real-time. From an automation standpoint this has significantly increased our productivity and ability to get nice looking reports out with short turn around.

It's stable, it keeps on improving and the technical support is excellent

I think a lot of users aren't having fun using SAP because it requires putting in a lot of information by keyboard directly because it requires some coding, so this is one area for improvement. From a user point of view, SAP is a complex system where you can learn and teach, so another area for improvement in the solution is that it needs to be more user-friendly. In the next release of SAP, I want it to have a friendlier menu for its users.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"I haven't contacted support, but my colleagues said they were satisfied with the response."

"Beautiful visualizations."

"The most value that Lumira provides is in its ability to consume the Business Objects universe."

"Geographic hierarchy and the ability to connect with SAP sources, such as CRM, ERP, and BW."

"SAP Lumira is the best system in the world, at least in my opinion. I like that it's a stable system and that many people in my company have development experience in SAP Lumira. The solution keeps on improving and has excellent support."

"The best feature is the ease of developing dashboards."

"It is fairly easy and fast when it comes to using it."

"The most valuable features of SAP Lumira are the dashboards, geographical elements, and graph filtering, and the usage is similar to a website which makes it easy to use."

Cons

"I was a little disappointed in Dundas. I found other tools like Tableau and Power BI to be more powerful. I intended to use Dundus as an organizational BI tool, but I think there's a significant learning curve with Dundas versus the others."

"It would be great to have more ETL capabilities so that the user can do more cleansing/mining on his/her side."

"Lumira's capabilities feel like that of a store app with the intuitiveness of a desktop app, which is not a good combination."

"It needs the ability to drill down more. Analyzing data with Lumira at times becomes a bit difficult."

"SAP Lumira can improve if they game more capability to the end user to prepare dashboards because it's more of an IT task to create them. In Tableau, we can drag, drop, and create. However, in SAP Lumira, we need a designer and a separate KT to be able to do it well."

"It needs an easier printing feature."

"Lumira uses a lot of memory resources, so the execution of dashboards is slow."

"I'm not a fan of using SAP Lumira because it requires putting in a lot of information by keyboard directly because it requires some coding, so this is one area for improvement. From a user point of view, SAP Lumira is a complex system to learn and teach, so another area for improvement in the solution is that it needs to be more user-friendly."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"PowerBI is way more capable at a much better price point: $10 per user without all the associated setup costs."

"In terms of cost, SAP Lumira is less affordable."
