Excellent for budgeting and forecasting, but long-term it will no longer be developed or supported
The fact that in a few years' time it is no longer going to be supported is a big concern. Therefore, I would advise against Hubble. Additionally, I think we underestimated the time for deployment, we thought it would be a few months and it took much longer than expected because the consultants didn't understand our process in detail before committing to the process. On a scale of one to ten, I would give Hubble a seven.

Brings reporting, planning, and prediction together in one seamless workflow
I think the areas of SAP Analytics Cloud that could be improved or enhanced are mentioned by users or companies, and they would definitely mention the price in terms of planning licensing. From a consulting point of view, I don't see any major weaknesses. It is reasonably well-developed, and the perfect strength is that innovations are coming on a quarterly basis. It is slightly behind other tools in terms of the number of graphical outputs. Some tools have it faster, but every increment of innovations contains new features. On the other hand, it is perfectly fitting to the SAP environment, with seamless integration to all SAP modules, not only ERP but also SuccessFactors and other tools from the SAP family, for example, integrated business planning for the production planning. This is really a highlight compared to other tools.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Reporting was dramatically improved."
"The most valuable features are both its budgeting and forecasting."
"Being able to create calculations, hierarchies, aging buckets, etc. has reduced the Excel reports we used to have."
"We have saved hours of Excel work producing the same results, which Hubble gives in minutes."
"Hubble will truly blow you away once you get to know the product and the people behind it."
"We use this solution for real-time dashboards, modeling data and for predictive analytics."
"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."
"SAP Analytics Cloud is a very good tool, the feature that's most useful for me is the reporting as it can be done via Google Chrome, and the solution is also very nice, user-friendly, and easy to build, making it very easy to use the features of SAP Analytics Cloud."
"This product provides good reports using a single pane of glass."
"I like the product's capabilities. The clarity and scenarios are the main features that allow us to forecast using machine learning algorithms and make decisions."
"Since implementing SAP Business Data Cloud, reporting has become 30 to 50 percent faster as business data no longer needs to be manually consolidated from multiple systems."
"One feature I've found most valuable is Discovery, a logistics tool that will place the dashboard for you on the fly and, for example, if you select a country, it will give the entire picture of where a product is high and where it is low."
"The capabilities of SAP Analytics Cloud that I consider the most valuable are that all three functionalities are in one tool, and because they are, you don't have to buy another tool to make planning, you don't have to buy another tool to implement prediction."
 

Cons

"Exporting to Excel takes a lot of time when broken into sheets/files."
"We have been advised by the owners that the budgeting tool is no longer going to be supported with future development, so my recommendation would be for them to continue to invest in development. Otherwise, at some point we will have to migrate to another technology."
"The only thing I may add is that it can get a little pricey when you add annual maintenance."
"The fact that in a few years' time it is no longer going to be supported is a big concern. Therefore, I would advise against Hubble."
"When exporting to Excel, it is values only."
"The budget management could be better."
"SAP Analytics Cloud should improve the dashboard."
"The performance of Data Product Generator to load data from BW to Data Sphere is really slow."
"SAP Analytics Cloud requires a lot of coding and I would like the coding to be somewhat minimal."
"SAC, which is the cloud version, lost some good features from the previous planning product, like BPC or BPS."
"One potential improvement is how we can transpose data. With SAP, if you have data from one system with a declared data type and a different system with another data type, the transfer is tricky."
"The cost is an area that could be improved."
"I would prefer to see it grow more efficiently, especially the AI helper tool."

"Its pricing is okay as compared to its competitors."
"It Wasn't directly involved in the pricing discussions, but when I joined the organization, they had already purchased the SAP Analytics Cloud solution. The organization faced challenges due to its perceived expense, leading to restrictions on granting access to many users."
"The product is expensive."
