Find out in this report how the two Business Performance Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Oracle Hyperion is an engine allowing you to build whatever you want on it."
"We can integrate with any system and pull data from SAP or SQL Server. We can also design our own role files to establish how we pull the file data and store it in our database."
"The most valuable features are those associated with modules and SP, IT in this space, planning, HFM, and PME."
"We like the reporting and tracking of financials."
"Stable and scalable solution with a valuable data integration feature which allows the slicing and dicing of data. It also has a workforce planning feature that allows you to bring in your HR data."
"Smart View is a really useful tool because we can have a good API with HFM."
"It's very easy to use and the functionality is quite complete."
"The latest cloud version is more efficient for financial implementations."
"The most valuable feature is the data integration in Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud."
"Beneficial analysis and easy to do management adjustments."
"It gives you an end-to-end solution from integrating data from the source system to reporting. So it's a highly recommended tool."
"The product has a direct plugin to Microsoft Excel."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud are the many capabilities it provides."
"We previously used Oracle EDS, and when comparing it to this solution, this solution has a much better interface. There are lots of advantages of the new solutions. Having it on the cloud, we are able to forget about keeping them updated or taking care of the database. We have minimal maintenance."
"The workforce, the cube database, is the most valuable feature where you do planning for your headcounts."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud is ad hoc reporting."
"All the planning systems out there are great. It doesn't matter which company you use. They're all great. I've seen demonstrations on a number of them, but it all boils down to the culture within the organization itself to use that functionality, understand it, and help drive it. I've had Oracle salespeople do demonstrations, and it looked really good. We get it on board, and everybody still sticks to their Excel spreadsheets because companies are a lot more complex than what you could deliver on the planning system. So, there should be more education on the capabilities, and there should be more understanding of organizations in terms of the way they access the data in order to plan."
"We are still having some issues with the ASO Cube. It can take a long time to clear the data in the ASO Cube compared to BSO data-clearing operations. We don't have a specific calculation in the ASO, and we only have these aggregate options on the ASO side. If we need calculations, we have to calculate them in the BSO and pass the data to the ASO Cube for the reporting. That's one of the drawbacks. Oracle could also improve on the data logging side as well."
"I found the initial setup to be complex."
"What I like is to have everything on one platform and not in different modules like Oracle Hyperion."
"The solution is about to cease to exist, so it doesn't really matter if they add anything to it. It's at end-of-life."
"Oracle Hyperion's scalability could be improved."
"They could support machine learning algorithms for the product."
"The analytics could be improved."
"There is middleware that we need to purchase for our use case that should be provided in Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud. We should not have to purchase the additional solution and the integration should be seamless."
"Some of the things in this product are just too cumbersome and we don't need them and they make it harder to do certain things, or certain things have to have more specific names or descriptions."
"Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud could improve. There are times when the forms are slow in saving and calculating."
"There are some issues with block creation in the memory. Sometimes, when we run a calculation and a new intersection is hit during the calculation, the memory block doesn't get created, which doesn't give the correct result."
"Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud could improve by having better integration with some other modules that we would add to this solution."
"The tool's interface is outdated. However, OneStream is easier to navigate."
"The FR recording studio that is used to build reports is clunky and awful to use. This could be improved a lot. The solution does have problems and limitations."
"For HR, the workforce planning out of the box is complicated. For most users, it's not easy, and it requires a learning curve. It's not very user-friendly. It can be improved."
