Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Tableau, Oracle and others in BI (Business Intelligence) Tools."I like the scheduling feature. It has an inbuilt scheduler which is very good, and it allows us to create agents, and those agents can be scheduled. It's quite flexible in that respect and goes into our IT infrastructure. The outputs are sent encrypted to various endpoints. Some are internal, and some are our clients, and it's encrypted at a high level. I do find Oracle OBIEE flexible. If there is stuff that's not in your model or schema, it's very flexible to create SQL scripts and create the data you want. It's quite nice to create a dashboard in OBIEE, and that's pretty straightforward in the way you drag and drop everything. You can create sections, and you can add elements to your page. That bit of the interface is relatively straightforward."
"It doesn't have many frills and is definitely older technology, but it is undeniably a workhorse."
"Ability to create our own reports."
"The scalability of the product is good."
"The solution is easy to use and very flexible."
"The most valuable feature is the reporting."
"The most valuable feature is the openness of the solution. It helps us integrate some of our clients."
"It can be used with any type of data models, such as relational lines and dimensional lines."
"If you correctly use the product for your use cases, it provides value for money."
"It enables us to configure various elements, such as dashboard settings, including factors like color schemes and other customization parameters."
"We can scale it if we need to."
"It excels in supporting database connections and various database types."
"The user interface and dashboards are very good."
"The initial setup is not very complex."
"QlikView is one of the strongest tools, I would say. Also, it has a very vast capability to process the data"
"E-T-L, The Extract, Transform, and Loading capabilities of QlikView make it a highly sophisticated self-service business intelligence tool for developers and analysts."
"In Data Lab, you can schedule any testing you want to do in production. You can take a small subset of data from production, copy it there, and run all your tests. It reduces your testing costs because it's all in the lab."
"It has increased the speed of reporting."
"The main problem we face is migrating all of the reports into the solution."
"In our organization, we feel that data visualization for APIs is an area in which the solution lacks."
"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."
"The functionality to customize and modify reports has been removed, and it would be beneficial to reinstall it, as it allows greater customization and flexibility in creating reports."
"Oracle OBIEE is a product that is not easy to implement. The product is also not easy to use."
"There's a lot of redundancy, especially in relation to creating the code."
"The drawback with the tool is that though it is well-created, its users are under-trained to use it."
"Particularly on the Cloud, a lot of functionality has yet to be ported."
"I really wish the application was easier to use in the development phase."
"Installation and deployment could be made easier and quicker."
"I would want them to have more options as a user. It would be nice for them to create their own dashboards and add fields."
"Needs improvement with UI transparency."
"More/newer visualisation components need to be added."
"There's room for improvement in the area of management's handling of concerns."
"Improvement in collaboration, between that and publishing of reports and publishing of models."
"It would be nice if QlikView could be plugged in into the company's website or an online portal such as QlikSense is capable of. There are ways around but it takes enormous time to develop."
"If I want to implement an upgrade, I'd like to see how it will be different. Ideally, Data Lab should help me test production items and also do future things. Future releases should be downloadable and testable in Data Lab."
"Their level of technical support is adequate. It could be better."
"The initial setup was complex as we had to rewrite a lot of the code."
