We performed a comparison between Oracle OBIEE and SAP 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."Oracle OBIEE is good for data visualization and analytical reporting."
"Can utilize SQL queries to generate reports directly."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the various scenarios the product offers and its stability."
"The visualization is very good."
"It has a lot workaround in order to do the report. data blending, and getting information from big data sources."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle OBIEE is interactive reporting because it allows better analysis versus conventional reporting, especially on the data warehouse side."
"We can see almost-real-time performance in our operations. When there is a problem, it is easy to escalate it to top management and the time for management to make a decision about it is much shorter than it would be using a manual process."
"Its robustness is most valuable. It can handle massive amounts of data quickly. If it's properly configured and tuned, it can handle massive amounts of data very quickly to produce results. That to me is the number one feature."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Analytics Cloud is its integration with SAP."
"The visualizations have been the most valuable feature."
"There is a really nice insight feature that I enjoy using."
"The new Application Design option offers lots of customization options by being able to script in Typescript (similar to Javascript)."
"The most valuable features are the analytical application and the user story."
"In the data warehouse, you're free to make changes. You can make everything text, meaning it's always a string. Even numbers appear as text, giving you the flexibility to work with all columns."
"A robust solution."
"Considering the reporting part, I rate the tool a nine out of ten."
"The complexity of this product means that you need to have a technical team to develop the reports, although this is also true for products like Microsoft BI and Zoho."
"I find I prefer Oracle OAC over OBIEE. It's more advanced, has artificial intelligence, and there's more that we can do with it in general. OBIEE is lacking features."
"It's not so flexible to do BI reporting directly from the data source without models. It is not that agile."
"For a beginner, this is a product that is difficult to learn. You cannot learn it quickly."
"Managing the OB applications requires a high level of experience, and makes the solution quite heavy."
"It is complex for designing RPD, and it can be simpler. Their support can also be improved in terms of response time."
"This solution is weak in the data science perspective. I have past data science experience. And, I find that there is a lot of room for improvement in terms of incorporating more advanced statistical modeling into the product."
"If the data is large, the dashboard takes a really long time. So, based on the database, if you have around a million cost contacts, the load time is very low, and the dashboard fails."
"There should be more features for the time series charts."
"I would also like to have more advanced features for predictive analytics."
"Improvements are coming quarterly whereas previously it was on a monthly basis."
"An area for improvement in SAP Analytics Cloud is its planning feature because it's not that efficient when compared to BPC. Another area for improvement in the solution is the difficulty in building reports or dashboards, particularly if you don't have proper knowledge of the BI system. SAP Analytics Cloud technical support also needs improvement."
"Figuring out how to navigate all of the products around Data Warehouse Cloud and SAP Analytics Cloud and BW for HANA is quite difficult."
"I would like to see improved support for third-party systems, lower cost of acquisition, and better graphics and interface design."
"However, there are areas of improvement, particularly in terms of visualization. The front-end interface of SAP Analytics Cloud is not as impressive as Tableau and Power BI. The charts in other solutions have a more visually appealing and customizable look, while in SAP Analytics Cloud, there's a lack of alignment between numbers and charts. This graphical aspect, especially concerning charts, is not as satisfactory in SAP Analytics Cloud compared to its counterparts."
"It should have the flexibility for scoping the story and models. When you use it in a three-layer architecture, you struggle with the fact that you usually have just one SAP Analytics Cloud tenant, and you have to switch the connections, which might be an issue for bigger developments. For the development role, there should be an option to switch between development and production scenarios."
