Find out in this report how the two Reporting solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of Oracle OBIEE is the security of the solution."
"I think having the conformed structures makes it a lot easier for end users and pulling reports together."
"User-friendly look and feel."
"The solution offers a wide range of software tools to meet various needs, such as those concerning reports, developer solutions like APEX and the integration of data."
"I like the cloud deployment feature. There are about 20 new features, and they are available on mobile and more. I haven't used any of them, but these features are highly attractive."
"Oracle OBIEE is good for data visualization and analytical reporting."
"The most valuable feature is the reporting."
"Provides good data visualization features, and provides a lot of visualization reports from various data sources."
"E-T-L, The Extract, Transform, and Loading capabilities of QlikView make it a highly sophisticated self-service business intelligence tool for developers and analysts."
"This solution has simplified getting to and understanding our data, no matter where it is housed."
"One of the good thing is that you can integrate different data source technologies. So you can model your environment without having any of our views running."
"Easy to analyze data by click-through."
"The most valuable feature of QlikView is the integration with other third-party tools."
"Our Qlikview applications help us to get a good idea of our Client Base Performance and assist us in the decision making for Seasonal Specials. On the other hand QlikView helps us to get a grasp on our Suppliers and helps us to negotiate pricing with them."
"The search feature: ability to see the related data."
"Once you open it up, you see everything that you can do."
"One feature I would definitely like to see is the ability to provide the in-memory data. Oracle might have some plugins but, as of now, that feature isn't available out-of-the-box. You might have to purchase that feature."
"They should make the dashboard more intuitive."
"If the data is large, the dashboard takes a really long time. So, based on the database, if you have around a million cost contacts, the load time is very low, and the dashboard fails."
"One significant improvement is the need for simplification. The set up could be more intuitive. An enterprise setup with HA and DR are pretty complex and to get a robust solution one has to play around with Real Application Cluster data sources and FAN notifications as well as WebLogic clustering and external load balancers. SSO also is not that simple to set up especially if you want all your Oracle systems to use the same SSO solution, i.e., no cheating with direct LDAP connectivity."
"The drawback with the tool is that though it is well-created, its users are under-trained to use it."
"Managing the OB applications requires a high level of experience, and makes the solution quite heavy."
"I find I prefer Oracle OAC over OBIEE. It's more advanced, has artificial intelligence, and there's more that we can do with it in general. OBIEE is lacking features."
"The solution needs to be easier to scale."
"Sometimes, dealing with complex reports requires more effort, which could be really improved."
"I really wish the application was easier to use in the development phase."
"The user interface and ease of use takes a bit of a learning curve to pick up."
"QlikView's UI could be more user-friendly."
"The user interface is old."
"There is a challenge on the frontend when it comes to browsing data through QlikView, as it isn't entirely compatible with other platforms we use."
"It needs work with visualization."
"The solution is quite costly."
