Crunchr vs. Workday Prism Analytics

The dashboard is user friendly, very intuitive. As you know, Crunchr has been specifically designed for HR, so you will save the time and risk of manually building models and reports: metrics are pre-built into Crunchr, allowing you to start analyzing your people data immediately. Also, it has an API available.

In my organization, we mainly use Workday Prism Analytics in HR and Finance departments. It not only enables us to make data-centric decisions but also helps reduce the need for data experts since we are able to visualize data on our own through self-service analytics.

• It's web based. No need to install any desktop clients on your machine to use platfora.
• It's best suited for a big data Hadoop environment. I can rate it as the #1 BI tool for a big data hadoop environment.
• Platfora follows kind of the same architecture as Hadoop architecture like Master and Slave architecture. It scales with the data volumes.
• Querying data is very good and very fast. (Platfora Lens)
• Client presentation wise it's good. You can get different kinds of graphs.
• Platfora almost supports everything on Big Data technologies including file formats, compression etc.
• Security is not compromised and it can deal in parallel with any Hadoop distributor security implementations. Just take an example of Knox on Hortonworks, so it will deal with that and cloudera , MapR
• Its very easily understandable and for the new people who wants to try platfora, learning curve is low
• You can create your own datasets in platfora. You can store your results as a dataset in platfora and can share across

• Crunchr takes a little while to get set up which can set a fast moving business back a little bit.
• Crunchr doesn't automatically import/translate data from all existing systems when you're onboarding as a new client, so there seems to be a great deal of manual entry at the start up.
• Reports sometime have a slow runtime during times of high use.

• Data Movement - Data needs to be moved from Hadoop to Platfora to create Platfora Lens and to do analytics.
• To support Data movement, infrastructure cost is high.
• To support data movement, network bandwidth consumption is high.
• No trial versions for companies to evaluate.

A few of us had used ADP Workforce Now at other places and liked the idea of an HR management tool like ADP and Crunchr but we had shared similar dissatisfaction with analytics reporting from ADP. It seemed like they were a few years behind the technology when compared to other solutions on the market, which led us to Crunchr

Both are great products. The advantage of SAP Workforce Analytics is that it's widely interoperable between different APIs and databases. Having said that, Workday Prism Analytics scores much better in user-friendliness and the learning curve for the teams to start using it is very low. If Workday enhances its APIs functionality, it can compete easily with SAP Workforce Analytics.
