We performed a comparison between Microsoft Power BI and Oracle Analytics Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is easy to work with and very chic."
"The way data is presented is very valuable. The amount of information that we can get at a glance is also valuable. You can then drill-down and see data from many different angles in the same chart by selecting certain things. Based on the selection, everything changes automatically. If we have four parameters in a particular item, when you select a parameter, the remaining charts on that page automatically change for that particular parameter."
"I also find connecting to different data sources is quite simple. Other solutions we were using before were complicated."
"It is easy to use. It has got a desktop where people can develop their own dashboards. Basically, we have figured out how to connect finance contracts and all programs for the government agency. So, they can see everything in a dashboard. So, it is very easy to use from a technical standpoint of view."
"Good reporting and data analysis tool that's user-friendly, easy to deploy, stable, and scalable."
"Everything that's in M Query and DAX is the heart of Power BI because with these tools you can make up for a lot of other missing features."
"Microsoft BI is scalable."
"Reporting is the best thing about Power BI. And it could help improve decision-making in many ways. Power BI is flexible and easier to use compared to tools."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us. All employees can access it from anywhere. It is a big advantage for us."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"The solution can scale."
"Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly."
"The most valuable features of the solution are dashboarding and data visualization."
"It's great for consolidation and creating one source of truth."
"It's really an enterprise solution. It has a dashboard, like standard dashboarding functionality. It also has reporting capabilities for producing pixel-perfect reports, bursting large volumes of a document if you need to. It has interactive data discovery functionality, which you would use to explore your data, bring your own data, and merge it with maybe the data from an enterprise data warehouse to get new insights from the pre-existing data. It has machine learning embedded in the solution. If you're new to machine learning, it's a really good way to get into it, because it's all within this platform, and it's really easy to use."
"I would like to see more visualization options."
"When there are large amounts of data being processed there are additional tools needed to handle it."
"The solution could improve the mobile application design. It is difficult to use compared to the desktop version."
"They can improve it in terms of rule-based security. Currently, it has very limited rules."
"It's not user-friendly; more tutorials, training, and better documentation would be helpful."
"Not having to login again after a mobile app upgrade. A simple login on mobile would be great."
"I'm missing collaborations functionality to operate or to work connected with multiple people on a data source or on virtualization. There should be more collaborations functions, such as in Confluence. We haven't explored the solution sufficiently in this area, but at this time it doesn't look sufficient."
"The only concern I have faced with Microsoft BI is the time it takes to find out an issue and rectify it."
"They could improve the ease of developing the dashboard and interacting with it."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."
"This solution could be more adaptable in its application."
"The learning curve should be improved, and I'm uncertain if tutorials are readily available or easily accessible. We may have resorted to looking on YouTube for such information. Having easily understandable documents or guides for new users would be beneficial. AI integration would be an interesting feature to add in the next release."
"Its machine learning and visualization capabilities can be improved. There should be more visualization options."
"It is expensive."
"The product should improve its user interface. It should be welcoming and modern. Developers should also find it easier to build data models. Oracle Analytics Cloud needs to have better visualizations and more options in the marketplace."
"At this time, dataflows cannot be shared, but I think that this should be enhanced."
