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 visualization is very good."
"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's the connectors, the adapters. Built in connectors with different ERPs, you can plug in XL, other sources of data. It's very easy to configure. It's very easy to use."
"I think the most valuable features are the ability to drill down, the graphs, and the scheduling for the reports to be received in Excel on a daily basis. Users like Excel, so it's good for them that they receive the reports by email, that they don't have to specify the schedule."
"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."
"Some of the dashboard capabilities are good. The dashboard capabilities that tell you what kind of reports are available and provide you a summary of the reports are valuable. It is easy to navigate and easy to download reports into Excel to utilize them."
"They are introducing AI. There are good forecasting features and machine learning."
"I have found the most valuable features are business intelligence and reporting."
"QlikView is one of the strongest tools, I would say. Also, it has a very vast capability to process the data"
"It's incredibly fast and can handle large volumes of data without slowing down our operations."
"The in-memory feature gives us better insight. It's also easy to drill down into the information and select information."
"QlikView is a scalable solution that multiple users can easily use."
"The language support is very good."
"It's pretty easy to deploy."
"It enables us to configure various elements, such as dashboard settings, including factors like color schemes and other customization parameters."
"The scalability is there."
"I would like to see enhancements in tracking, debugging, and flexibility."
"Its functionality is lacking."
"The development effort takes longer than other BI tools currently on the market."
"Oracle OBIEE can improve the ease of use. It is a lot to learn and it could be made easier."
"Managing the OB applications requires a high level of experience, and makes the solution quite heavy."
"BI Server"
"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."
"There are a lot of aspects of Oracle OBIEE that are exceptionally complicated, make things unnecessarily difficult for everyone who uses it. In terms of the integrations, Oracle needs to improve a little more, but I believe that they have tried to capture all those issues. The issues we are facing in the Oracle OBIEE 12C versions, in the Oracle Analytical Server Center or Analytical Cloud versions, Oracle has managed to overcome the challenges."
"Sometimes, dealing with complex reports requires more effort, which could be really improved."
"It needs work with visualization."
"They could improve the update time."
"I really wish the application was easier to use in the development phase."
"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."
"I would want them to have more options as a user. It would be nice for them to create their own dashboards and add fields."
"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."
