We performed a comparison between MicroStrategy and Oracle Analytics Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 leverage it, not only for reporting but for analytics and also for geospatial reporting."
"The solution has excellent features available on mobile."
"It is scalable and integration-friendly."
"The technical support of MicroStrategy can be helpful through implementation."
"The product is very mature. It's quite robust and an excellent enterprise-level solution."
"Transaction Services, that was really the part of the tool that made it very compelling for us, because it gave the opportunity to drive action."
"With the new version that's coming out, I think they have simplified a lot of things. Also, when it comes to the administration part, and sharing, and the collaboration features, they are really great. You can send out comments with a filter to someone in your organization, and if the person clicks on it, he actually sees what you are seeing. So that's really great."
"This solution has allowed us to become a top-class competitor among other consulting companies."
"It has the best feature for data augmentation."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us. All employees can access it from anywhere. It is a big advantage for us."
"Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly."
"It plays a crucial role in facilitating decision-making for various organizational stakeholders."
"The specific capability I find important in Oracle Analytics Cloud is that it allows the basic user to easily drag and drop data. I also like that the solution allows the user to decide what to measure and what to see in the reports."
"The ability to quickly search for and access relevant data is crucial."
"The technical support is excellent, and they respond quickly."
"A valuable feature is the speed of the solution."
"The solution has a very non-logical user usage part. It has a library mode where users can access all the data, reports, and dashboards, but they also can be accessed from a platform. They have to log into the platform. The user experience is confusing for the users. MicroStrategy needs to define which one they will use. Some functionality isn’t available in library mode but is available in the portal. There should be Office integration. For example, if I do a presentation, then I should be able to add a chart to my presentation."
"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."
"MicroStrategy needs to do some more development to make the platform easier to use. It's a complicated platform that requires a lot of skill to effectively utilize. So they could work on reducing the complexity to make it more accessible for a broader community of people."
"The areas that have room for improvement in MicroStrategy are mainly related to building additional tools. Specifically, the embedding process has been a bit of a struggle."
"Something I would be interested in is more visualizations, because right now we use SDK to create some. If there were more out-of-the-box options, we would be happy with that."
"I would like to see a single standalone application to control everything from the administration perspective, and also to develop new applications."
"I prefer the capabilities of a single platform, but it does not always work. We are a huge company. Some areas do not use MicroStrategy, so you have to blend whatever systems they are using together to get the data points that you are looking for."
"MicroStrategy's mobile dashboard is still not a RESTful design."
"Its machine learning and visualization capabilities can be improved. There should be more visualization options."
"They could improve the ease of developing the dashboard and interacting with it."
"Its FAW feature has limitations in terms of usage."
"When we have, for example, a table with low performance, we have several issues with drawing some graphics in the Oracle cloud."
"The learning curve should be improved, and I'm uncertain if tutorials are readily available or easily accessible. We may have resorted to looking on YouTube for such information. Having easily understandable documents or guides for new users would be beneficial. AI integration would be an interesting feature to add in the next release."
"It is expensive."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
