SAP not very user friendly

Very nitpicky with having to be very exact. I have to do multiple steps when it would be nice to be able to group items.

I manage projects and use it to see the status of projects. It is a one stop shop for all the projects.

Business Objects
What do you like best about the product?
I like that both internal and external colleagues have user-controlled access to different folders/reports in BO. I also like the automated report feature that auto-emails reports to a set distribution list.
What do you dislike about the product?
I expect auto-distribution to be reliable, so it's annoying when reports are not received via email as expected, and there is no error message alert to prompt the database analyst troubleshoots the problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to automate many operational aspects through reports that are auto-distributed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ensure that there are quality mechanisms already in place in case reports are not running or auto-distribution as expected.

What do you dislike about the product?
Calculations can at times be inconsistent and unpredictable. System has trouble interacting with other systems if integrating multiple platforms.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
N/A
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Spend lots of time investigating how it will interact with other platforms if you have existing systems or implementing other platforms.
So far, so good
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use, the cost is less as compared to tableau or other BI products in the market and customer care is good.

You need to maintain universe layer to talk to the database, it does not talk to databases directly. If you have to add a new field in the report from the database then you have to add that particular field in universe layer which is added headache.

Makes creating reports easier.
