What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We processes million of records each day. MicroStrategy Analytics helps us produce readable and meaningful reporting from that data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use quality hardware if you're running entirely in house. If you're going to implement cubes, plan ahead for memory and storage growth on your Intelligence servers.
Excellent full-featured Enterprise BI platform
What do you like best about the product?
Very strong core Enterprise BI capability - ability to work easily across different devices and formats (with particularly strong mobile offering), great platform administration and security features, flexibility and capability in data modelling. Data Discovery capability in Dossier is also very strong. Integration with D3 library and native visualisations also work very well. Also, great connectors pack and ability to integrate via API, great Data Science integration with production models built in R.
What do you dislike about the product?
Don't have any real dislikes to mention.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Decision support at all levels of the organisation, the need to make information and insight available to our field teams on a mobile device, exec information systems, business problems relating to forecasting and analytics. Multi-million pound cost and time savings as well as new opportunities.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Build a solid reporting layer in your DataWarehouse to get the best out of MSTR as a front-end tool (like other BI front-end tools), but MSTR can also plug gaps in the reporting layer through building cubes etc.
I have been working with MicroStrategy for more than 15 years and it is always evolving.

It is a very easy tool to use. And it takes very little effort for users to use it.

We use the boards a lot, part of the tool that gives us many benefits and satisfactions.

It is bit expensive
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solved all of our problems
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Fantastic enterprise grade BI software
What do you like best about the product?
Enterprise level reporting and dashboarding. After building the data model, it's easy for users to put together their own reports. Visual insights is good for ad-hoc analysis. Distribution services very useful for emailing reports to customers on a daily basis.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a bit of time to get everything setup and requires a knowledgeable architect, so the cost of implementation is front loaded. A few bugs here and there but MicroStrategy does a pretty good job at releasing updates and fixing them quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Converted all of our systems of records to one central repository. Mobile dashoarding and altering for fast response times. Emailed reports on a daily basis for up-to-date information for action insights managers. Closed loop implementations with write-back to the database via transaction services.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Contact MicroStrategy sales for a free demo or proof of concept. The sales engineers there are up front and honest, and will tell you if they think it's useful and cost effective for your business. Hiring a good implementation consultant is key to creating a successful long term application, don't skimp on initial costs or it will hurt you down the line.
Best BI TOOL

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Charts
A 360 degree product for business intelligence services
What do you like best about the product?
The option of using predictive analytics and time series forecasting is the key highlight of the product, which gives the MicroStrategy an advantage when compared to its peers. In addition, the option of connecting the data from various sources automates the data ingestion process and the wrangling can be done in the tool itself.
What do you dislike about the product?
Even though the product has many advantages, the user interface is somewhat confusing for the users, because there are lots of options and fields which makes it confusing. The educational resources which are helpful for teaching the new users about how to use the product are not up to the expected standards doesn't cover the essential features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It had used the MicroStrategy for performing Business Intelligence services, such as predictive analytics, data visualization, and prescriptive analytics. It also has the option of building the dashboards and user stories which I found it helpful for the presentations and technical reporting/documentation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The product is bit on the expensive side when compared to its peers, the customer support for the product is reliable and quick to respond but the user interface seems confusing for the new users, and the educational resources for using the product covers the product at a high level rather than explaining the key features and options for the users.

What do you dislike about the product?
Visualizations, its getting there but still little behind in game as compared to other Visualization tool.
