"The primary reason for using OBIEE is connectivity with Oracle E-Business Suite. It makes it easy to connect with our Oracle E-Business Suite. There are the standard dashboards available, which we sometimes use, and now we are looking for customized dashboards."
"Easy to create ad hoc reporting for different solutions."
"The initial setup is not very complex."
"It is useful to use a tool like this to have a view of data at a point in time. You can extract and create little data sets that you can store, and then over time, you can have a view for tracking changes. Especially when you work with a relational database or a database that's a production database, the data is dynamic, but if you use QlikView, you can take a snapshot of different datasets. In your own time, you can then get insights and report, build, analyze, and draw whatever you need from the data, which is quite useful."
"It excels in supporting database connections and various database types."
"The most valuable aspect is its extensive library on Microsoft, providing a robust framework for implementation."
"The scalability is there."
"Data transforming with scripting, and the associative model that lets users browse data in an easy way, are the most valuable features."
"The most useful feature of QlikView for me is the QVD concept."
"Its ability to build, very quickly, very complicated models."
"It is complex for designing RPD, and it can be simpler. Their support can also be improved in terms of response time."
"They should make the dashboard more intuitive."
"It's not so flexible to do BI reporting directly from the data source without models. It is not that agile."
"For a beginner, this is a product that is difficult to learn. You cannot learn it quickly."
"There are times we have slowness when processing the reports with Oracle OBIEE. Improving the performance would be beneficial."
"Setup and migration are very complex. Technically, Oracle accessory is extremely complex. These days, the industry demands a kind of Excel analysis, which is very easy to install, set up, and it's very developer-friendly as well as end-user friendly. OBIEE lacks all those features."
"Implementation is cumbersome and requires expertise."
"Oracle OBIEE could improve the visualizations, such as diagrams, charts, and graphical user interface. Other tools on the market have better graphical visualizations this Oracle OBIEE."
"This solution would be improved with the inclusion of a feature that would allow us to add a common library of (our) commands used in load scripts and expressions, so with a keyword, we would get a drop down to select the command we are looking for, as opposed to the generic help."
"Enhancing user-friendliness would be highly beneficial."
"Syntax editor needs some work, it's frustrating to have valid syntax being flagged as incorrect."
"They should offer the capability to directly access data from SaaS environments, as it would simplify the migration process, and while it may seem like a minor enhancement, it would be beneficial to our clients."
"Scalability really depends on the size of your data and QlikView server architecture. For the biggest data sets, it could become an issue at some point."
"Though the initial setup phase is simple, when it comes to the integration with the custom systems, the configuration and the compatibility sometimes take some more time."
"The user interface is old."
"Sometimes the filters are disappearing, and I'm not sure why this is happening."
