In their own words
SAP Analytics Cloud
SAP Analytics Cloud brings business intelligence, analytics and enterprise planning together in a cloud service. It supports financial, supply chain and operational planning, with real-time data refresh, scheduled reports, embedded analytics, natural-language queries and row-level security. Joule can automate reports, model scenarios, surface insights and handle analytics and planning tasks through conversation. More than 100 prebuilt business content packages are available across lines of business. Named data sources include SAP HANA, SAP S/4HANA, SAP BW/4HANA, SAP BusinessObjects, SQL, OData and Google BigQuery. Live connections analyze data at its source without replication; import connections bring data in for modeling. The service offers web, iOS and Android access and hybrid deployment. Mobile apps require an SAP Analytics Cloud account and mobile services enabled by the user's IT department. Pricing is on request, and there is no free plan. A no-cost 30-day trial uses sample data on a shared tenant and excludes some administration, customization, master data management and integration capabilities.
