Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Tableau, Oracle and others in BI (Business Intelligence) Tools."It doesn't have many frills and is definitely older technology, but it is undeniably a workhorse."
"I have found the most valuable features are business intelligence and reporting."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to set up the automated delivery of reports."
"The most valuable feature is the openness of the solution. It helps us integrate some of our clients."
"The most valuable feature is the reporting."
"The solution offers a wide range of software tools to meet various needs, such as those concerning reports, developer solutions like APEX and the integration of data."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle OBIEE is interactive reporting because it allows better analysis versus conventional reporting, especially on the data warehouse side."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the various scenarios the product offers and its stability."
"I haven't had the chance to properly sink my teeth into Enterprise Security but so far I like that they added the MITRE ATT&CK features."
"Being able to track impossible travel logins and things of that nature is valuable. We can track user logins from various IPs, various countries, and at various times to see if everything adds up."
"You can check up on security from the dashboards."
"The scalability of the solution is amazing because it can collect a lot of data and you can have your own structure to monitor this data."
"The ability to manage large amounts of generated data and to protect all devices from unauthorized use are the most valuable features."
"Splunk allows us to find insights that we were not able to with traditional BI tools using ETL. It allows us to dig into raw events."
"Splunk is quite flexible for our customers. Splunk does not filter from a specific lock, you can define it later."
"The Splunk user community and forum are most valuable."
"BI Server"
"Oracle OBIEE could improve by having better integration and compatibility with other vendors."
"We needed some technical expertise during setup."
"Managing the OB applications requires a high level of experience, and makes the solution quite heavy."
"The pricing model could be improved. Right now, it's quite confusing. Many customers have this feeling that it's a super-expensive option."
"There's a lot of redundancy, especially in relation to creating the code."
"From the point of view of strategic management, I would like to have a feature, perhaps a form after we get to the KPI dashboard, to be used to note if something unusual happens in the operations. That way we could record extreme KPI situations, and track why a number is very low or too high."
"It is very biased towards Oracle infrastructure. One of the major red flags we have at the moment against Oracle is that it doesn't support deployment on other cloud providers. We're quite heavily vested in AWS as our infrastructure, and Oracle is yet to formally support deploying on those virtual infrastructure instances. That's quite disappointing, and it also cuts them out of over 70% of the market."
"We were inundated with the amount of alerts and alarms that we could get out of it. It is also a resource hog and we didn't have the resources to support it on-prem so we're taking it offline now."
"Splunk could be improved by reducing the cost. The cost is one of the biggest challenges for us in keeping to our production requirements."
"You do need a lot of training and certification with this product."
"We'd like Splunk to reduce false positives."
"My biggest struggle with Splunk in general is memorizing all the commands. If I want to know which users have logged in between certain hours, I cannot write that query out. It would be helpful to have AI so that I can explain in simple terms what I want and then the search gives that back to me. I am waiting for that."
"The tool itself is very difficult to configure. It's great for its number of inputs, for the different types of systems devices, and things that it could collect information from. To actually make good use of it, you need a fairly dedicated team of people that have some reasonably good programming or modeling skills to be able to do the things that you need to do with it. Whereas a lot of the other tools are better packaged for that, and so require a lot less training and a lot less dedication."
"Writing queries is a bit complicated sometimes."
"We had some connections issues with the solution at the beginning."
