We performed a comparison between Oracle OBIEE and QlikView based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 is the ability to run it in Exalytics within memory coupled to a Repository on Exadata is where it flies. So it's not meant for mom and pop shops, but if you are a global 500 fortune 1000 company, this is a tool that can get you what you need on time and even in real time."
"It provides excellent stability."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle OBIEE is the security of the solution."
"The technical support services are good."
"The solution is easy to use and very flexible."
"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."
"The performance can issue queries to work in the Oracle database in Oracle's native language. There are a lot of visualizations which suit our business."
"Both the vertical and horizontal scalability of the solution is good. In terms of scalability, I would rate this solution a nine out of ten."
"It enables us to configure various elements, such as dashboard settings, including factors like color schemes and other customization parameters."
"Associative model - no more cubes."
"We can scale it if we need to."
"The language support is very good."
"A well designed app brings freedom of inquiry to meetings, allowing me to answer questions in real time and this has transformed progress and outputs of our monthly group meeting."
"The integration with Salesforce has helped us gain access to crucial sales data in real-time."
"Once you open it up, you see everything that you can do."
"Its ability to build, very quickly, very complicated models."
"There could be better integration with other solutions, such as Microsoft Office."
"It was a little bit tedious to install a new release."
"Warehouse and business intelligence are two different things, but OBIEE also has some warehouse features in it. I would like to see some of those capabilities improved."
"We needed some technical expertise during setup."
"The development effort takes longer than other BI tools currently on the market."
"Its overall organization as an analytical tool, the layout of OBIEE, is not very good."
"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 platform's interface needs improvement."
"Although Qliktech's road map clearly states that QlikView has a long way to go, most of the R&D effort seems to be benefiting Qlik Sense."
"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."
"They could provide a user-friendly analysis process rather than specialized IT resource code."
"Sometimes the filters are disappearing, and I'm not sure why this is happening."
"Installation and deployment could be made easier and quicker."
"For me, it is important to have a mix, what is the "view" and what is the "sense", Qlik Sense. They have two tools, but for me it is important to have only one tool, which combines the functions that we have from one side and the other side."
"The pricing is high."
