MicroStrategy

It has the best mobile BI on the market at this moment. LOE is very low for this type of development.It is robust and the performance is fantastic. The dashboards are simple. It provides easy report creation and design.MicroStrategy has the ability for the SQL generator to choose the right aggregate table, which is perfect for organizations with low database developer resources.

It has a steep learning curve. It is difficult to adapt to the platform and it is time-consuming.The Desktop could be a bit more intuitive.The biggest shortcoming is the training they offer, it is just plain terrible.I would like to see web and mobile reporting synced.If you want to make changes to metrics and attributes, you have to rely on MicroStrategy developers.

MicroStrategy puts BI in the hands of any user. There is no complicated code to write or query to understand - just a click or drag and drop. This platform also gives flexible deployment options, it can be hosted on-site or in the cloud.MicroStrategy is useful for someone who is manipulating data frequently. It is best suited for companies that have users with different skill sets. It is a versatile tool with many access levels depending on your experience. In my opinion, it isn't suited for companies looking for detailed and heavy financial reporting. On the other hand, it is suited for varying degrees of budgets. The price is fair for the features and functionality out of the box. But it is quite complicated, and you will have to have someone dedicated to MicroStrategy and the lifecycle of the business data model.
