Robust Reporting Tool...if the underlying data models are designed properly using Kimball principles
What do you like best about the product?
Besides being scalable for small to middle sized organisations, it actually does the performance bit better than OBIEE even for large scale companies. BO also have a better data governance framework than other tools such as OBIEE and can be truly called a multi developer friendly tool with versatile integration connectors for all major OLTP systems, be it ERP Finance or HR Management Systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
The tool's licence are expensive but you get what you pay for. SAP's business tool licences in general have never been cheap but that ensures you get proper product support whenever needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SAP BO has good report 'bursting' capabilities sending reports to printer queues across different offices in the UK region without the performance getting bogged down like Oracle's BI Publisher. Many major reports are being sent to the departments using this tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have multiple development teams on distinct projects within the reporting team, use BO as it does have good data governance in place over other vendors.
