MicroStrategy Mobile vs. Sencha

One of best business intelligence enterprise reporting tools, it has loads of rich features available to the business user with ease of use and advanced analysis in a single end-to-end solution. I like MicroStrategy's simplicity in creating complex multi-pass SQL reports, visualizations over varied data sets, and the breath of areas in which the product can be used. I like mostly everything. I think there are some remaining improvements that could be done in the area of data visualization.

Sencha is suited for:

• Enterprise applications that are really huge
• Development happens on huge teams, on-shore an offshore model, one can divide and conquer by splitting in modules easily
• Budget is not a constraint

It's not uited for:

• Small budget applications
• Not too many components are needed
• Static or less dynamic content based websites
• Turnaround time is shorter and developers have to spin something around in a short duration of time

• Flexibility.
• Excellent visualization.
• High definition graphics which are readable for any user.

• It's a complete solution that has a vast array of pre built components, charts and a data-grid based solution.
• Security comes out of the box.
• It's mobile and tablet ready.
• It has a lot of support from the community so solutions are easily available
• You can add your own flavor via theme customizations and built in component extension.

Incentivized

• More documentation of communication between the layers of the infrastructure so security discussions can better be facilitated.
• Reloading the data when you reboot the server takes time depending on the infrastructure.
• It can also be a bit slow due to the amount of data we have, but that's more of a data problem.
• I have not been able to figure out how I can control table joins within reports, so I have to create free form SQL reports, which is messy to upkeep.

Incentivized

• More default themes
• Biggest community

MicroStrategy is much better.

The main reason we chose Sencha is it’s full stack solution. We have an integrated backend that solves a lot of the infrastructure issues and Sencha was the only tool in the market that has only one library full of components. It is not fashionable to use it, as developers always love new technologies, but Sencha is the best for business applications and has a lot of useful tools.

• Excellent applications
• Very good performance
• Not very used, and developers don't like it at the beginning
