lot of new features , functionalities but a few old basic functionality still missing
What do you like best about the product?
i used multiple bi products and microstrategy is still the best sql generator out there. by a long margin. i like the other functionality that gets added to it but i love the adhoc sql generation capability the best. i love the tech notes, support too. the new features are fine..i kind of think about them as keeping up with the trend..
What do you dislike about the product?
some basic technical functionality is still missing. distinct aggregation is one of them. even the cubes dont show distinct aggregation for subtotals etc., i also dislike the fact that whenever transformation metrics are added , the engine by default scans the fact tables twice.. instead of intelligently using the olap functions from sql or its own olap functions. this hasnt improved over years.
also, as a bi consultant , i sell microstrategy as the best adhoc reporting tool out there, however, it only serves 40 to 50% of adhoc functionality a business requires. we still have rely on analysts to write sql to pull the data to answer the other adhoc queries.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
its a nice tool. the benefits are similar to what any business that goes on a bi journey does. compared to the other bi tools out there, i believe it is better in terms of development provided the developers are trained on it.

What do you like best about the product?
MicroStratey provides all different kinds of tool/products, for example admin tool like OM, IM, developer tool like developer, web, products like mobile, web. Also Enterprise Manager is a good way to see how users adopt our projects and monitor the usage/traffic and possible performance insight.

The complexity of MicroStratey products makes the learning curve too long. Many hidden features/properties need several clicks to find. Performance tuning is hard. it takes too long to build a fancy dashboard compring with other BI tools like tableau

Enterprise level reporting, data integrity, possible to scale up, powerful SQL engine are reasons we chose MicroStrategy instead of tableau. We use MicroStrategy to analyze loan data and check loan performance
