Is SAP Analytics the same as SAP BusinessObjects?

Although often confused with one another, SAP Analytics and SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence are not the same platforms. SAP Analytics Cloud is an all-in-one SaaS business intelligence tool providing vital functionalities to SAP users. The platform provides analytics from data collected from a variety of sources, including ERP, Microsoft SQL, and Salesforce.

SAP Analytics Cloud can also be used to compile data and create reports, as well as conduct analysis for predictive planning. The platform collects and analyses raw data and transforms it into intelligent insights that allow businesses to make data-driven, forward-thinking decisions.

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence, on the other hand, is a centralised platform and analytic suite used primarily for data reporting and visualisation. It’s also ideal for collaborating across an organisation with multiple departments.

SAP BusinessObjects Business boasts a centralised, user-friendly interface. It’s web-based and provides simplified data access as well as interactive analysis through a range of customisable visual formats including graphs. Offering innovative reporting and analysis tools, SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence boasts a sophisticated dashboard that allows users to ask questions involving multiple data sources.
