Find out what your peers are saying about Anaplan, Oracle, Jedox and others in Business Performance Management."We can configure and have complete freedom while creating solutions."
"The main strength of Jedox lies in mastering the navigation, especially the Excel add-in."
"The ETL function simplifies many tasks."
"The ease of reporting is one of Jedox's most valuable features."
"The solution is quick with analysis and calculation. The tool offers high digitalization which helps us to run the controlling department with less number of people. If the software wasn't there, I would need two to three people extra to run the department."
"The solution is very versatile."
"The EPM is the most valuable feature."
"We use the tool for performance management and planning."
"It has had a direct impact on bottomline improvements."
"Having the analytics capabilities on a single platform."
"It is very stable."
"Dependency on development teams, as well as managing the platform, has reduced a lot with Visual Insight."
"It's a stand-alone mobile development app that you don't even have to do business intelligence on. You can just use it to build apps."
"The scalability is great. It was one of the selling points for us on MicroStrategy."
"The stability of the product is good."
"It is a great tool and has the best offerings for doing data analysis."
"More emphasis is needed on the availability of the learning aspect of the solution. Because unless you take up their course that enables you to be an expert in creating the report, you must seek help."
"Jedox should improve the design and server issues."
"From a development perspective, there's room for improvement in the area called the designer, where you actually build your reports to make it easier to manage the process."
"There is room for improvement in the scalability. It is a very massive tool. It's not easy to just build everything yourself."
"I don't find it particularly user-friendly."
"Online pixel-perfect reporting is an aspect that has room for improvement."
"The solution needs to improve its support. The visualization in Microsoft BI is more modern and comfortable than Jedox's. I would expect something similar with the solution."
"Being an analytical solution, it should have more visualization options like graphs. When we are putting it, it should have more options. The UI can be made more modernized based on today's market. Sometimes, when we are doing heavy reports or dashboarding, there is a bit of a performance issue because it is pulling up a huge amount of data. That can be improvised by buffer memory and getting some buffer memory feature into it. It is a bit complex because it is a CPM solution. It helps you to get the information based on the different tools that we are using, which is a bit of a complex thing. It is not as easy as Microsoft Power BI. It is also not that easy as an implementation piece. It takes time to convert the business requirement into the proper solutions in the tool, which is time-consuming. It took about eight months to do the complete implementation. We got some training from the partner and the Jedox team, which helped us later on in pulling things forward, but too much learning is required, and too many possibilities are there."
"It needs row-level security, column-level security, on attributes. I want to be able to handle full-scale security model from the semantic layer, flat out."
"The online community page of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"In the developer, there are things that you able to do in a document or a report that you are not able to do in the Dossier."
"MicroStrategy is not cloud native today and some of their APIs are a little limiting."
"The solution lacks good visualization. They should work on the user interface to make it more slick and modern."
"The solution has a very non-logical user usage part. It has a library mode where users can access all the data, reports, and dashboards, but they also can be accessed from a platform. They have to log into the platform. The user experience is confusing for the users. MicroStrategy needs to define which one they will use. Some functionality isn’t available in library mode but is available in the portal. There should be Office integration. For example, if I do a presentation, then I should be able to add a chart to my presentation."
"I would like to see the enterprise version available in a demo or as a trial version."
"I would like to see a feature where migrations are easier. When you migrate from certain environments, it could probably be a little cleaner. Sometimes it seems to be somewhat clunky when you migrate from one environment, say a development to a test or production environment."
