The Briefing Book feature enables measures to be filtered and viewed based on different criteria by end users.
This software is targeted at executive users, not the data analysts who want to slice and dice. The software will not replace your BI tools, but it will sit nicely on top of a BI tool if you want management to have quick and easy access to performance data.

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

"It is a comprehensive solution for performance management, and yet it is easy to setup and easy to use, especially in comparison with Oracle, SAS, Hyperion and SAP."
"Beautiful visualizations."
"We’ve created several dashboards that display large sets of data in an insightful and easily digestible way."
"It seemed to be fairly user friendly."
"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."
"I think rapid development, geospatial coding, using it to connect to multiple data sources are all good selling points for it."
"Now, it seems to be one of the best SAP dashboard/chart/data analysis tools available."
"I would recommend using SAP Lumira because the development of dashboards is easy, and they have a good look and feel."
"The dynamic creation of dashboards and the quick visualization is the key feature."
 

Cons

"It needs to have better quality built in reports."
"SAP Lumira's scalability is very limited. Every time we have to involve IT if there is a change in the dashboard."
"I am happy with the product, but they could improve in the discovery of the product."
"Lumira's capabilities feel like that of a store app with the intuitiveness of a desktop app, which is not a good combination."
"From an enterprise supported tool, I find that a little wanting."
"It would be great to have more ETL capabilities so that the user can do more cleansing/mining on his/her side."
"It needs the ability to drill down more. Analyzing data with Lumira at times becomes a bit difficult."
"An area of improvement, for sure, is the flexibility of the visualization."
"It has some limitations when operating BW data, and has limited functions when mixing different data sources."
 

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."
