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."I think having the conformed structures makes it a lot easier for end users and pulling reports together."
"Inter Process Communication."
"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."
"It is easy to create a report quickly. It does not take much time to create an ad hoc report."
"The security is good. For example, we can implement column-level security."
"The most valuable feature is the visualization."
"We can see almost-real-time performance in our operations. When there is a problem, it is easy to escalate it to top management and the time for management to make a decision about it is much shorter than it would be using a manual process."
"They are introducing AI. There are good forecasting features and machine learning."
"It enables us to configure various elements, such as dashboard settings, including factors like color schemes and other customization parameters."
"If you correctly use the product for your use cases, it provides value for money."
"The search feature: ability to see the related data."
"We can scale it if we need to."
"I had the option to prepare data myself instead of always having to depend on the data team."
"The scalability is there."
"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."
"The integration with Salesforce has helped us gain access to crucial sales data in real-time."
"There could be better integration with other solutions, such as Microsoft Office."
"It would be better if it had a wide range of visualization options. For example, Microsoft Power BI has an extensive range of visualization options, but it's not available in OBIEE. There are also some conflicts because it's complicated, but the cloud application is easier. They added some features for ETL with the on-premises application, but we need a different or a separate application for ETL in the cloud. In the next release, I would like to have more AI features."
"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."
"It is complex for designing RPD, and it can be simpler. Their support can also be improved in terms of response time."
"The drawback with the tool is that though it is well-created, its users are under-trained to use it."
"The performance could be better."
"Oracle OBIEE can improve the ease of use. It is a lot to learn and it could be made easier."
"There's a lot of redundancy, especially in relation to creating the code."
"The solution should be mobile-responsive. It should also include drag-and-drop and slice-and-dice features."
"It is really old. We are moving towards converting everything into a Power BI environment. We want to have a self-service type of BI environment where different levels of users in organizations can log onto a portal and retrieve the data they need or get the necessary insights for decision-making that's important for them or their business unit. They have built a new version of QlikView called QlikSense, which probably competes with newer BI tools, such as Power BI, but they are far behind. That's why we are moving towards a newer tool that's easier to use and has more visualizations to represent the data."
"Installation and deployment could be made easier and quicker."
"Sometimes the filters are disappearing, and I'm not sure why this is happening."
"Improvements are required in the hide and unhide functionality that falls under the layout container feature that has been used in my company in recent times."
"The user interface is old."
"There is no automation or drag and drop functionality."
"I would like to see more advanced features from Qlik Sense integrated into QlikView to keep it competitive and up-to-date."
