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."The most valuable feature of Oracle OBIEE, for me, would be the Web Catalog. From a development perspective, I do not need any client or any software to be installed on my laptop or desktop. Everything is browser-based, so I just open the browser and start development."
"Ability to create our own reports."
"It's easy to create fully-functional Dashboards."
"It doesn't have many frills and is definitely older technology, but it is undeniably a workhorse."
"It's easy to use for business analysts."
"The most valuable feature is the reporting."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to set up the automated delivery of reports."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle OBIEE is the security of the solution."
"The fact that the solution is visually appealing because of its lightning interfaces can be considered one of its most valuable features"
"We have found the scalability to be very good."
"The way Salesforce Einstein Analytics is structured in terms of the work assignments and the user profile is very good."
"Einstein Analytics provides insights into what we are doing and how we are doing it. It tells us what benchmarks we need to hit consistently to achieve our goals. In sales, there is sometimes a disconnect between actions and objectives. We aren't necessarily going to close a deal because we call X number of people. There are some underlying skills that add nuance to these metrics."
"It is a comprehensive solution. It has everything in it. I can easily find what I need."
"The tool is valuable. It's one of the greatest programs I'm currently working with, and I believe it will continue to be crucial in the next four to five years. It's the future of our operations. Integrating other systems and conducting campaigns is easy. The solution relies heavily on AI."
"Salesforce Einstein Analytics is a simplified CRM. It's integration is good."
"The most valuable features of Salesforce Einstein Analytics are the flexibility around the deployment, overall capabilities, user-friendliness, and interactiveness with the tools that came built with it."
"The performance could be better."
"In terms of tech support, we have our own technicians. But, we did register for their help. When we register a call, it takes time for them to respond to us."
"Managing the OB applications requires a high level of experience, and makes the solution quite heavy."
"Oracle OBIEE only displays KPIs, but it does not include strategic objectives or display risk in a strategic map."
"Particularly on the Cloud, a lot of functionality has yet to be ported."
"I would like to see the data wrangling features enhanced."
"For a beginner, this is a product that is difficult to learn. You cannot learn it quickly."
"It was a little bit tedious to install a new release."
"The product is expensive."
"The price of Salesforce Einstein Analytics is quite a bit expensive for the region of Mexico. I think the price of the product could be better."
"Better pricing would make it available to more users and we would likely use it more broadly within the organization."
"All of the timesheets and appraisal management I have not been happy with. There should be some improvements. For example, as a management team, our managers do not have access to see a summary report, such as who is on leave today or how many hours each person logged in. You have to get into individual users and see. You cannot see a summary report, the reporting is missing. There should improve the reports."
"Einstein Analytics could incorporate something like SFIA 8 to help users understand the underlying skill sets."
"They have a lot of opportunity to improve BI tools. With Einstein Analytics, we have a very minimal scope."
"I would advise others not to customize because they rolled out the newer versions, which are every six months. There had to be some significant testing and verification that happened. It is important to have a strong third-party provider that is very experienced. We used Deloitte, but we evaluated Accenture, KPMG, and IBM, but we decided on Deloitte and that was a good decision for us. Having a partner who has a center of excellence or experts that could give you a lot of the tips that they've learned could jumpstart your deployment and stick to the standards."
"Improvement-wise, I feel the solution must be more robust since it is not exactly ready to handle large data."
