"Our customers have the solution deployed on the cloud or on-premises. The deployment took about a month."
"Scalability is one of this solution's big plus points."
"One can see that it's a mature product because it addresses all the requirements that you must need for financial consolidation and for budgeting and planning. It's really easy to use."
"Hyperion is helpful for all our budget processes."
"This solution provides a more structured methodology for doing analysis than a tool like Excel. It creates a central database that keeps all information in one place."
"The accuracy of data gathering and consolidation is very good."
"This product is very scalable and provides high ROI."
"Functionality-wise, it is what they say it is. It is the best in class, but it all ties back to your users. If your users are completely enamored with Excel spreadsheets, then breaking those habits is hard."
"Oracle Hyperion is an engine allowing you to build whatever you want on it."
"It's a very expensive solution."
"The latest version has been cloud-enabled, but it requires a deeper understanding of programming skills compared to the previous versions, which were more user-friendly."
"The initial setup from a user perspective can be cumbersome and has room for improvement."
"The usability could be better."
"The forecasting of values could be simplified in this solution."
"I have a problem with Hyperion when I need to log some changes in the budget. It's hard to know who made which changes in the budget."
"There's something known as a data block that Hyperion generates for each and every transaction. Sometimes it does not generate and we need to identify those issues and fix them manually."
"I would like to see more integrations with third-party vendors such as BigSense and SAP. I'm looking forward to seeing more interface-related content."
"We are still having some issues with the ASO Cube. It can take a long time to clear the data in the ASO Cube compared to BSO data-clearing operations. We don't have a specific calculation in the ASO, and we only have these aggregate options on the ASO side. If we need calculations, we have to calculate them in the BSO and pass the data to the ASO Cube for the reporting. That's one of the drawbacks. Oracle could also improve on the data logging side as well."
"There can be an improvement in many regards with the dimensions, the metadata, the interfaces, as well as the integration."
"Integrating Oracle Hyperion, a multidimensional database, with relational databases poses challenges due to the differing database structures."
"The reporting feature in Oracle Hyperion isn't the best. It needs improvement."
