Business Objects-The advantage

I was working on SAP’s Business objects which is a reporting tool and found out why it’s numero uno in this field.Its very interactive and i was able to see the  SQL query generated which is absent in other tools and may be i may not be aware of that.It has been also launched in SaaS model  and has been very consistent with the creatiof universe and reports availability in webbie and info view .Hyperion essbase with Business objects will definitely be a deadly combination of ETL and analytics tool.
