Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We are using mobile analytics, and it is amazing."
"It offers us a lot of out-of-the-box tools, which give us the ability to automate a lot of our administrative tasks. Some things become menial: user creation, restarting a server at 10 o'clock on a Friday - simple things that they really give you the tools to be able to do. That's one thing I really like about the MicroStrategy platform from an administrative perspective."
"The drill-down functionality is also very good."
"It was easy to install and implement a report with it."
"I have shown our users how to stop using Excel. They would create these vast Excel files, and I showed them how to do the same thing with MicroStrategy, which saves a significant amount of time for them everyday."
"It drives us away from Excel. For what it is for, it is good. You can't run a business on Excel."
"We have been using it mostly for grid reports and its exporting features."
"Dossiers are going to change the name of the game for us. We want to be able to have the executive committee go into a meeting and tell a story. We want them to tell us a story, not us."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"The advanced calculations by the tool are highly effective"
"It's robust. It has the ability to handle massive amounts. After reporting has been developed, there is an ease of use or a user-friendly interface for a trained workforce."
"The features that I find to be the most valuable are the BAS (Business Analytics), the Narrate feature, and the auto-visualization."
"The ability to quickly search for and access relevant data is crucial."
"The best feature may be data flow, which is used to prepare and clean data."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's most valuable feature is its visualization."
"The solution can scale."
"The problem is the way that their metrics are designed. It can be difficult to understand what you're actually looking at. Then when you're comparing a document against the VI, you can't actually do that properly. So there are components, and there is a huge learning curve in the Enterprise Manager space. I think it would benefit them greatly if they were to exercise a significant amount of research and development in that space."
"The graphs available for the new dashboard of version 10 are weak."
"The solution's reports are not very flexible."
"Another feature to consider in the future would be adding some additional offline capabilities without using desktops."
"I would try to make it a little more basic, user-friendly. In terms of the UX, it's a bit sluggish there."
"Our data warehouse is sort of static; negative load and that is it. It is not as real-time as we would like. We are working on building that out first to create more real-time, at which point we will work on some potential integrations with other applications, but I don't think we are there yet."
"With Cube partition (v10.1 and above) scalability has not been an issue, but the Cube publish time, and temporary space consumption while the Cube is being published, has almost doubled during implementation of Cube partition."
"Scalability is something which will need to be improved when it goes to a bigger audience."
"When we have, for example, a table with low performance, we have several issues with drawing some graphics in the Oracle cloud."
"It is less scalable than Snowflake."
"It is expensive."
"They could improve the ease of developing the dashboard and interacting with it."
"Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
"The price of the solution could be lower."
"The solution could be more flexible."
"Its machine learning and visualization capabilities can be improved. There should be more visualization options."
