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."
"Ability to create our own reports."
"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 has helped to consolidate data and report on a single version of the truth."
"I like that Oracle OBIEE comes with more options. For example, more options with data security, user security, and other security. It's more complicated than Microsoft, but it gives you more options. They also added the part for machine learning, which is good."
"We have scheduled reports delivered automatically to our business users using enterprise features."
"User-friendly look and feel."
"I like the scheduling feature. It has an inbuilt scheduler which is very good, and it allows us to create agents, and those agents can be scheduled. It's quite flexible in that respect and goes into our IT infrastructure. The outputs are sent encrypted to various endpoints. Some are internal, and some are our clients, and it's encrypted at a high level. I do find Oracle OBIEE flexible. If there is stuff that's not in your model or schema, it's very flexible to create SQL scripts and create the data you want. It's quite nice to create a dashboard in OBIEE, and that's pretty straightforward in the way you drag and drop everything. You can create sections, and you can add elements to your page. That bit of the interface is relatively straightforward."
"Associative model - no more cubes."
"Easy to analyze data by click-through."
"We use QlikView for its cost-effectiveness and ease of integration with databases."
"It enables us to configure various elements, such as dashboard settings, including factors like color schemes and other customization parameters."
"This is a very cool application with endless options of creativity and visuals."
"The product’s most valuable feature is its ability to view the entire data available for analysis."
"The integration with Salesforce has helped us gain access to crucial sales data in real-time."
"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."
"Oracle OBIEE only displays KPIs, but it does not include strategic objectives or display risk in a strategic map."
"It is complex for designing RPD, and it can be simpler. Their support can also be improved in terms of response time."
"It was a little bit tedious to install a new release."
"We needed some technical expertise during setup."
"Supply chain and finance."
"The performance and the complex setup are the main reason for switching to Qlik Sense."
"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."
"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."
"The solution is quite costly."
"Sometimes the filters are disappearing, and I'm not sure why this is happening."
"Better source data connectors."
"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."
"I really wish the application was easier to use in the development phase."
"QlikView certainly lacks in its ability to share visualizations or create visualizations easily."
"QlikView's UI could be more user-friendly."
"If a user wanted to see something not included in the application the new object had to be created by a power user or developer because Qlik view's scripting has somewhat of a learning curve."
