Introduction

THE BI Survey 16 is based on findings from the world‘s largest and most comprehensive survey of business intelligence end users, conducted from February 2016 to May 2016. In total, 3,137 people responded to the sur-vey with 2,611 answering a series of detailed questions about their usage of a named pro-duct. Altogether, 37 products (or groups of products) are analyzed in detail.

THE BI Survey 16 examines BI product selec-tion and usage among users in categories (KPIs) including business benefits, project success, business value, recommendation, customer satisfaction, customer experience, innovation and agility. There are 32 KPIs in total.

This document contains just a selection of the headline findings for Longview Analytics. It does not show all the KPI results and focu-ses mainly on the positive findings.

duct, offers a flexible, visual development en-vironment for building individual BI applications for dashboards, reporting, analysis and planning. In BARC’s view Longview Analytics is one of the most flexible tools on the market for custom-buil-ding a range of BI applications with individual screen layouts using responsive design, and enabling those applications to be deployed on the Web or mobile devices. Longview Analytics provides connectivity to over 20 relational and multidimensional data sources, catering for all the major databases.

Founded in Germany in 1993, arcplan itself has around 100 employees worldwide including 30-40 developers and 20-25 consultants. The company serves over 3,200 clients from its headquarters in Langenfeld, Germany, as well as further offices in Europe, the Americas and Asia. Approximately 60-70 percent of arcplan’s clients are based in the DACH region.

In March 2015, arcplan announced it will merge with Canada-based Longview Solutions, a lea-ding provider of CPM and tax provision software solutions. Longview is a privately held company backed by Marlin Equity Partners, a global inves-tment firm with over $ 3 billion of capital under management. The goal of the merger is to cre-ate and provide an integrated product portfolio leveraging the flexibility of arcplan’s BI and ana-lytics functionality as well as Longview’s robust CPM and Tax solutions.

Longview Analytics’s strengths are standard/enterprise reporting and dashboarding applica-tions. Ad hoc query, advanced and basic data analysis are seen as future use cases for many customers. The percentage of employees using Longview Analytics is significantly below The BI Survey average, which is due to the vendor’s regular usage approach. In typical scenarios, a few specially trained tech-savvy developers - often from IT - use Longview Analytics to create custom-built BI applications for business users in their organizations. Viewing and navigating data, and not necessarily modeling/enriching data, are the tasks most commonly performed with Longview Analytics by business users. The product is mainly used by large corporations and mid-sized companies with a median of 350 users per installation. However, there are seve-ral significantly larger implementations as well, reflected in the mean of 1,573 users.

Comment

Peer Groups & KPIs THE BI Survey 16 features a range of different types of BI tools so we use peer groups to help identify competing products. The groups are essential to al-low fair and useful comparisons of products that are likely to compete.

The peer groups have been defined by BARC ana-lysts using their experience and judgment, with segmentation based on two key factors:

1. Usage scenario - functional peer groups are mainly data-driven and ba-sed on how customers say they use the product.

2. Regional focus - is the vendor a large international vendor with a truly global presence or does it focus on a particu-lar region. We also take into account the location of BI Survey respondents.

Longview Analytics features in the following peer groups:

• Dashboarding-focused products

• Integrated performance management products

• EMEA-focused vendors

Large enterprise BI platforms

Includes products equipped with functionality for enterprise deployments that focus on a broad range of BI use cases.

Dashboarding-focused products

Includes products that focus on creating advanced and highly sophisticated dashboards.

Self-service reporting-focused products

Includes products that focus on self-service reporting and ad hoc analysis.

OLAP analysis-focused products

Includes products that focus on analysis in dimensio-nal and hierarchical data models.

Visual data discovery-focused products

Includes products that focus on visual data discovery and advanced data visualization.

Integrated performance management products

Includes products that provide integrated functiona-lity for BI and performance management, especially planning and budgeting.

Large international BI vendors

Includes products from companies with annual re-venues of $200m+ and a truly international reach.


Includes products from vendors that have a signifi-cant presence in - and focus on - the EMEA region.

Americas-focused vendors

Includes products from vendors that have a signifi-cant presence in - and focus on - the Americas region.

THE BI Survey 16 provides the reader with well-de-signed KPI dashboards packed with concise infor-mation, which can be absorbed at a glance. The KPIs all follow these simple rules:

• Only measures that have a clear good/bad trend are used as the basis for KPIs.

• KPIs may be based on one or more measures from THE BI Survey.

• Only products with samples of at least 20 - 30 (depending on the KPI) for each of the questions that feeds into the KPI are included.

• For quantitative data, KPIs are conver-ted to a scale of 1 to 10 (worst to best).

• A linear min-max transformation is ap-plied, which preserves the order of, and the relative distance between, pro-ducts‘ scores.

The terms ‘top-ranked’ and ‘leader’ are used in the following KPI chart titles. ‘Top-ranked’ indicates first position. ‘Leader’ usually denotes a position in the top 20-25% of products listed in the chart.

Peer Group Classification Peer Groups Overview

The KPIs


Report

This KPI is based on the achievement level of a variety of business benefits.

Business benefits


Customers can enjoy several benefits from using Longview Analytics. Users cite more accurate and faster reporting, analysis or planning, improved employee satisfaction, improved data quality and improved operatio-nal efficiency as the main benefits, leading to better business decision making overall. As a result, Longview Analytics is a leader in the in-tegrated performance management products and EMEA-focused vendors peer groups with consistently outstanding ratings for business benefits in recent years. Business intelligence deployments cannot claim to be successful un-less they deliver some level of business bene-fits, so we consider this KPI to be one of the most important measures in The BI Survey.

Report

This KPI is based on the implementation satisfaction level and the frequency of projects completed on time and on budget.

Project success


Projects with Longview Analytics are usually successful, and are often completed on time and within budget. The implementation sa-tisfaction level at customer sites is high. In BARC’s view, the secret behind this result is the product’s flexibility and the high level of customization that can be built into Longview Analytics applications. Delivering exactly what the customer needs, tailored applications built with Longview Analytics often precisely meet with users’ expectations. In this sense, projects are often regarded as successful, leading to a respectable third-place in two peer groups.

Report

This KPI is based on the ‘Data volume‘ KPI and how many sites currently use sensor data analysis, text data analysis and social media analysis with their BI tool.

Big data analytics


Longview Analytics has long provided access to Teradata, Oracle and IBM data sources ca-pable of handling terabyte scale volumes, and SAP has also now certified its HANA connecti-vity via MDX. The vendor took a major step in addressing the business need to handle unst-ructured data when it announced support for Hadoop distributions via Simba Technologies‘ Apache Hive ODBC Driver with SQL Connec-tor. BI Survey results underline that Longview Analytics is often used to analyze sensor, text and social media data. Consequently, Long-view Analytics is ranked top for big data ana-lytics in the integrated performance manage-ment products peer group.

This KPI is based on how many sites currently use the product in a cloud environment.

Cloud BI


Cloud-based business intelligence and per-formance management is an important mar-ket trend and many companies evaluate the benefits of this deployment option. Longview Analytics is cloud-ready and can be deplo-yed quickly and easily in cloud infrastructures. Longview Analytics’s application building tool still runs as a Windows client, but it is increa-singly being used to develop cloud-based ap-plications for business users throughout the organization. Longview Analytics has achieved consistently outstanding ratings for cloud BI for several years, and this year it is ranked first in the EMEA-focused vendors peer group.

This KPI is based on how many sites currently use mobile BI with their BI tool.

Mobile BI


Mobility – via the responsive design appro-ach – was one of the big advancements with Longview Analytics, leading to a considerable improvement in the ‘Mobile BI’ KPI in recent years. This so-called ‘DORA’ approach (Design Once, Run Anywhere) works by automatically adapting to the screen resolution of the device accessing the application, be it a laptop, desk-top, tablet or smartphone device. With this comes the advantage of delivering identical functionality across all devices while reducing development cost and effort. Longview Ana-lytics is top-ranked in the integrated perfor-mance management products peer group, le-aving many well-known planning rivals behind.

This KPI is based on how many sites currently use visual design standards with their BI tool.



Offering comprehensive charting opportuni-ties – including bullet graphs, sparklines (micro charts) and pareto charts – Longview Ana-lytics was the first BI software to be certified HICHERT®IBCS compliant by BARC (in April 2014), based on a series of tests of its capacity to create standardized, easy-to-interpret re-ports and dashboards. This fact confirms that Longview Analytics is clearly capable of sup-porting visual design standards including cle-ar messaging to recipients, unifying meanings and condensing information. Longview Ana-lytics is top-ranked for visual design standards in all of its peer groups, improving on its results from last year.

This KPI measures user satisfaction with the level of the implementer’s support for the product.

Implementer support


Longview Analytics products are sold directly through the company’s worldwide offices and indirectly through partners based in various countries and regions. Partners have access to sales and business development resources for selling and implementing the software.

Longview Analytics

Report

This KPI is based on how often the product was chosen for its flexibility, and on the frequency of complaints about user flexibility post-implementation.



Longview Analytics’s key strength is the flexi-bility of its development environment. The pro-duct is one of the most flexible BI tools on the market, boasting functionality to build tailored BI applications so the business requirements of its customers can be fully met. However, to make the most of Longview Analytics’s applica-tion-building capabilities requires many hours of training. The application design compo-nents of the product require specially trained tech-savvy developers, often in IT, to create custom-built BI applications for business users in their companies. Its range of functions and the flexibility of the software are among the main reasons why customers buy Longview Analytics.
