Gonzalo Segarra Sub-Gerente de Desarrollo in Information Technology at Hospital Aleman (Hospital & Health Care, 1001-5000 employees) Chose MicroStrategy Analytics A long time ago we choose MS because their MHT but technology changes and this is not supported as well. Perhaps today I would rethink my decision. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose MicroStrategy Analytics Tableau was more costly and took longer to learn to use. While it does have some perks (such as no metadata layer), I find using the online version of Tableau is not as fast as the online version of Microstrategy, and creating data descriptors is easier in the latter.

Pablo Tempone Analista BI Senior in Professional Services at COA S A (Information Technology and Services, 51-200 employees) Chose MicroStrategy Analytics Microstrategy has a more centralized vision, the new version is making an approach to Tableau or Power BI in the data preparation and fast creation of data visualization.

Verified User Chose MicroStrategy Analytics Speed, visually, and sales process - MicroStrategy outranked Cognos by far. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose MicroStrategy Analytics Tableau is probably MicroStrategy Analytic's biggest competitor I've noticed over time, and I'm not sure why. Tableau only covers visualizations independently for each business user, which then creates the issues of every employee creating their own version of the data, and … Incentivized Helpful? Mario Ferrer BI / DW Architect in Information Technology at Achievers (Computer Software, 201-500 employees) Chose MicroStrategy Analytics I found Birst to be a good tool when using perfectly normalized data, like they do on their demo.

Paul Campbell Professional Services Engineer in Professional Services at Chartwise Medical Systems (Information Technology and Services, 11-50 employees) Chose MicroStrategy Analytics I have only used SSRS 2012 and MicroStrategy 9.4.1 as reporting tools.
