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."Ability to create our own reports."
"In terms of features, everything is good. It is also stable and scalable."
"Easy to create ad hoc reporting for different solutions."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the various scenarios the product offers and its stability."
"The main features of this solution are that it is easy to use, intuitive, and user-friendly. When I retrieve the data from the database it is in a very raw form, then when I use the Oracle Report Builder it has advanced intelligence features to allow me to view and make changes to the data easily."
"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."
"The scalability of the product is good."
"I have not personally used any such products related to this service, however based on the popular opinion, Microsoft Power BI is more popular. We have never switched from this software due to infrastructure and license related costs. However, my team acknowledges that the Power BI is much more enhanced and includes features that are easier to use, including its drag and drop features. I am not sure, if OBIEE has these features, due to lack of updated versions."
"QlikView is a scalable solution that multiple users can easily use."
"The search feature: ability to see the related data."
"The product’s most valuable feature is its ability to view the entire data available for analysis."
"I had the option to prepare data myself instead of always having to depend on the data team."
"It's incredibly fast and can handle large volumes of data without slowing down our operations."
"It enables us to configure various elements, such as dashboard settings, including factors like color schemes and other customization parameters."
"The user interface and dashboards are very good."
"You can switch views easily."
"This solution is weak in the data science perspective. I have past data science experience. And, I find that there is a lot of room for improvement in terms of incorporating more advanced statistical modeling into the product."
"They should develop greater visualization because their visualization isn't industry leading at the moment. The way you pull the data and see the data compared to other platforms, they're lagging a little bit behind. Also, their cost. I've got Oracle account managers trying to persuade me every day to purchase these licenses. Once you purchase OBIEE, then you have to purchase the virtualization and then you have to purchase the mobile license to operate on the mobile. It's really expensive."
"Its functionality is lacking."
"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."
"It crashes when many people login simultaneously."
"The complexity of this product means that you need to have a technical team to develop the reports, although this is also true for products like Microsoft BI and Zoho."
"Oracle OBIEE only displays KPIs, but it does not include strategic objectives or display risk in a strategic map."
"BI Server"
"Sometimes, dealing with complex reports requires more effort, which could be really improved."
"Improvement in collaboration, between that and publishing of reports and publishing of models."
"The solution is quite costly."
"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."
"Syntax editor needs some work, it's frustrating to have valid syntax being flagged as incorrect."
"There's room for improvement in the area of management's handling of concerns."
"They could improve the update time."
"I would like to see more advanced features from Qlik Sense integrated into QlikView to keep it competitive and up-to-date."
