"It's a very stable, robust product."
"The most valuable feature is that it is able to slice and dice the data."
"IBM Planning Analytics is easy to use and deploy. It is quick to develop. The calculation machine is also very fast."
"Planning Analytics' best features include automatic updates and slicing."
"The ease of use is valuable. The fact that it's plugged into Excel spreadsheets is also valuable. It provides additional functionality where you can slice and dice the information in a way that you can't do with spreadsheets"
"The product's stability is good."
"The AI/ML enablement is useful, as many reporting tools do not offer machine learning models as of now, without writing customized code."
"The most valuable features of the solution are dashboarding and data visualization."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's most valuable feature is its visualization."
"The ability to quickly search for and access relevant data is crucial."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us. All employees can access it from anywhere. It is a big advantage for us."
"The specific capability I find important in Oracle Analytics Cloud is that it allows the basic user to easily drag and drop data. I also like that the solution allows the user to decide what to measure and what to see in the reports."
"The solution can scale."
"The tool's transport layer could be improved when promoting development between environments."
"The tool should include features for prediction. It can also improve the scalability."
"It's wonky, and not super user-friendly with Excel."
"Extracting data is a little slow."
"Adding predefined templates could be beneficial."
"The dashboard is very poor and needs a lot of improvement."
"It's highly competitive right now, and all the vendors are in a race to put out new versions with additional features. IBM comes out with new versions too often, and it has an impact on quality."
"It is a bit expensive, but it does the job."
"They could improve the ease of developing the dashboard and interacting with it."
"The price of the solution could be lower."
"One area of improvement is associated with more connectors needing to be added such as Microsoft OneDrive, Teradata and a few others. I think the list is limited to the top ones now."
"Its machine learning and visualization capabilities can be improved. There should be more visualization options."
"The implementation of generative AI and machine learning should improve"
"It's not a failure of the product; it's just an architectural choice. It has to do with data modeling. I'm comparing this to another product, which is Oracle's developer client and probably called Oracle BI Developer Client Tool. The data modeler, which is cloud-based, and Oracle BI Developer Client Tool, which is local or on-premises-based, both can do the same thing in data modeling. However, the cloud tool does not have as many features as the Oracle BI Developer Client Tool, which is closest to the OBIEE Administration Tool with full feature data modeling, metadata development, and so forth. In a complex environment or implementation, that is the capability that you need."
"When you implement the product on a small scale, it doesn't generate any ROI."
"It is expensive."
