Quick Answers

SAP Analytics Cloud is a single cloud solution for Business Intelligence and organizational planning, enhanced with the power of predictive analytics and machine learning technology.

SAP Analytics Cloud stands out from the competition in many ways. For starters, we’re 100% accessible in the cloud. This means you’ll only need your web browser to access your account, no desktop application is required.

Another differentiator is the integrated planning capabilities. Bringing Planning and Business Intelligence together allows you to analyze, report, budget, and forecast within a single solution.
