Very User Friendly For All Users: Pentaho Business Analytics

The ease of use makes it very user friendly even if you have no experience in using BI tools such as this one. I like how simple it was to create dashboards/reports within minutes after my first login. It's not too expensive either so there aren't any downsides about having a tool with limited features compared to other more advanced products out their. If your looking for an easy way go ahead and try it! Easy access to information right at our fingertips now. This allows us to be able to see…

Pros
  • Quickly creates reports without needing additional training, all done through dashboard interface itself rather then creating separate programs that run independently from eachother..very organized program.easy enough learning curve (even though i don;t consider myself computer savvy).seems stable but im still newish here..i can tell its going great just by seeing what others say online
Cons
  • Not bad

One stop shop Data Visualization platform

The ease of use is one thing I like about this software package. You can build dashboards in less than 5 minutes. It's very intuitive as well so you will be able to learn it quickly if you are used to using other tools such as Tableau or QlikView. This tool requires some learning curve but after reading through their documentation, which was pretty thorough; your time investment should not take longer than an hour (if that). There were no major downsides with our implementation except perhaps…

Pros
  • Well organized information provided easy navigation system along side clear explanations/descriptions from end user interface perspective within dashboard builder section itself
Cons
  • Not bad

Powerful Business Intelligence Tool

I love how easy it is to use. There are many tutorials that will teach you how to get started with pentaho quickly. The way they bundle their software makes it very easy to learn and implement. When you have a basic understanding of SQL you can start using this tool and see results almost immediately. As an analyst I'm looking for an easy to use but powerful reporting platform. This software does not disappoint! It's easy to get up and running in minutes. Reporting is seamless. You can't beat…

Pros
  • Easy
  • Powerful
  • Fast deployment compared other solutions we evaluated.
  • Good community support, lots if useful information available online through youtube videos from experts (easeoflearning)
Cons
  • Not well suited as OLAP server no ability built into database connectivity or visualization.
  • No outbox option without exporting data
