Helpful consistent measurements, high availability, and scales well

When it comes to generating reports, it appears that many users rely on experts to handle technical aspects. For instance, if you require a weekly report displaying accounts transitioning in and out of your modules, it seems challenging to accomplish without consulting experts for assistance. Such tasks should be user-friendly and easily achievable without external assistance. It would be beneficial to have visibility into any changes made to your account by individuals other than yourself or your team. It is also important to clearly track the history of these modifications and identify the responsible parties.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Einstein Analytics provides insights into what we are doing and how we are doing it. It tells us what benchmarks we need to hit consistently to achieve our goals. In sales, there is sometimes a disconnect between actions and objectives. We aren't necessarily going to close a deal because we call X number of people. There are some underlying skills that add nuance to these metrics."

"It is a comprehensive solution. It has everything in it. I can easily find what I need."

"The out-of-the-box features are good for companies that want to try analytics and data science interventions."

"The most valuable feature of Salesforce Einstein Analytics is the reporting tools."

"The most valuable features of Salesforce Einstein Analytics are the flexibility around the deployment, overall capabilities, user-friendliness, and interactiveness with the tools that came built with it."

"The fact that the solution is visually appealing because of its lightning interfaces can be considered one of its most valuable features"

"The way Salesforce Einstein Analytics is structured in terms of the work assignments and the user profile is very good."

"Salesforce Einstein Analytics is a simplified CRM. It's integration is good."

More Salesforce Einstein Analytics pros

"For report scheduling, I always prefer SAP because it has the most powerful scheduling features, like sending reports to more than 1,000 customers per day. That option is not as good in Microsoft BI and in Tableau it only exists as an add-on option."

"What I like best about this solution is that it is built into the SAP line, making it easier to integrate with other SAP products."

"The platform's main benefit is its integration with SAP ERP data. It’s effective for data integration and integrity."

"Data consistency is also a notable feature; the system takes care of data consistency, so you don't need to handle it manually."

"SAP Analytics Hub offers a user-friendly interface with effortless configuration, seamless updates, and real-time availability of information. It avoids the complexities associated with batch processing, providing a smooth and efficient experience."

"This product provides good reports using a single pane of glass."

Cons

"They can provide more end-user customizations. There should be the possibility for the end-users to change some elements in the interface. I have a way of doing my job. My colleague may have his own way of doing his job. If I ask for a change, it'll change for everyone. It'll be good to have some end-user personalizations. I can't see many in Salesforce right now."

"If a user leaves your organization, you shouldn't lose the visibility of all of the records."

"I would advise others not to customize because they rolled out the newer versions, which are every six months. There had to be some significant testing and verification that happened. It is important to have a strong third-party provider that is very experienced. We used Deloitte, but we evaluated Accenture, KPMG, and IBM, but we decided on Deloitte and that was a good decision for us. Having a partner who has a center of excellence or experts that could give you a lot of the tips that they've learned could jumpstart your deployment and stick to the standards."

"Einstein Analytics could incorporate something like SFIA 8 to help users understand the underlying skill sets."

"The price of Salesforce Einstein Analytics is quite a bit expensive for the region of Mexico. I think the price of the product could be better."

"Improvement-wise, I feel the solution must be more robust since it is not exactly ready to handle large data."

"All of the timesheets and appraisal management I have not been happy with. There should be some improvements. For example, as a management team, our managers do not have access to see a summary report, such as who is on leave today or how many hours each person logged in. You have to get into individual users and see. You cannot see a summary report, the reporting is missing. There should improve the reports."

"The tool needs to simplify its features."

More Salesforce Einstein Analytics cons

"The interface can be simplified because it is not a user-friendly experience."

"The platform could easily integrate with other ERP data solutions. Additionally, it should be faster compared to competitors in the cloud space."

"The technical support for Analytics Hub is limited and could be improved."

"Pricing and support are integrated into the system. However, the support process can be challenging, particularly when navigating the SAP support site, which lacks user-friendliness and ease of access."

"The analytics part of SAP has not been that good up until now. They're still in the infant stage and development is still going on. SAP has some cloud analytics and they're trying to configure it in Lumira, but it's not that good at this point."

"Faster implementation of new functions for the new product is an area of improvement in SAP Analytics Hub."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price-wise, Salesforce Einstein Analytics is an expensive tool."

"Salesforce has a subscription-based licensing structure, where it's between $20 to $75 per month, per user."

"Although it was deemed slightly expensive and failed the cost analysis we conducted in our company, we proceeded with the purchase because we desired to have a leading CRM system in the industry."

"The biggest challenge we had was the cost and the licensing. We ended up getting an enterprise licensing agreement(ELA). That took a lot of negotiations and a lot of pressure. We were able to receive a good price for the community licensing they bundled Salesforce Einstein Analytics. They bundled a lot of capabilities with us with the ELA."

"Salesforce Einstein Analytics can be considered somewhat expensive, depending on the company's needs. If they want the complete package with all the features, it's pricier. It all comes down to what the company requires from the platform."

"The solution is expensive."

"I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."

"The product is expensive."

"It is an expensive solution."

"They are pursuing a highly assertive approach to target businesses of all sizes within the industry."

"The pricing is reasonable."
