"It has user-friendly data visualization features, supporting our decision-making process with its business intelligence capabilities"
"Once you open it up, you see everything that you can do."
"We can scale it if we need to."
"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."
"The initial setup is not very complex."
"The product’s most valuable feature is its ability to view the entire data available for analysis."
"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."
"One of the things that have been difficult with OBIEE during all the time that I've known it is that when something goes wrong, many times, the error messages are not specific, and you've got to spend a lot of time digging and digging and digging before you say, "Oh, okay. I figured out what it was." There should be more detailed error messages or troubleshooting messages."
"It needs a better security management system."
"There are times we have slowness when processing the reports with Oracle OBIEE. Improving the performance would be beneficial."
"The platform's interface needs improvement."
"It is not a good product for data visualization."
"The solution needs to be easier to scale."
"Oracle OBIEE could improve by having better integration and compatibility with other vendors."
"It needs work with visualization."
"The only thing I would improve about it is the fact that it refreshes all the time, and when it does that, it just deletes all the options you had, all the filters that you had selected, so you need to select them from the beginning."
"More/newer visualisation components need to be added."
"There is a lack of static PDF report generation and automatic resizing of the dashboard to fit the device."
"Error handling."
"It would be nice if QlikView could be plugged in into the company's website or an online portal such as QlikSense is capable of. There are ways around but it takes enormous time to develop."
"Needs improvement with UI transparency."
"QlikView's UI could be more user-friendly."
