Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Tableau, Oracle and others in Reporting."Dashboards and self-service reports. These are widely used by customers in the EPM domain."
"The most valuable features of the solution are dashboarding and data visualization."
"The solution can scale."
"Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly."
"The AI/ML enablement is useful, as many reporting tools do not offer machine learning models as of now, without writing customized code."
"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 best feature may be data flow, which is used to prepare and clean data."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us. All employees can access it from anywhere. It is a big advantage for us."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's most valuable feature is its visualization."
"Customer support takes lot of time to get a solution."
"The solution could be more flexible."
"It's not a failure of the product; it's just an architectural choice. It has to do with data modeling. I'm comparing this to another product, which is Oracle's developer client and probably called Oracle BI Developer Client Tool. The data modeler, which is cloud-based, and Oracle BI Developer Client Tool, which is local or on-premises-based, both can do the same thing in data modeling. However, the cloud tool does not have as many features as the Oracle BI Developer Client Tool, which is closest to the OBIEE Administration Tool with full feature data modeling, metadata development, and so forth. In a complex environment or implementation, that is the capability that you need."
"One area of improvement is associated with more connectors needing to be added such as Microsoft OneDrive, Teradata and a few others. I think the list is limited to the top ones now."
"When we have, for example, a table with low performance, we have several issues with drawing some graphics in the Oracle cloud."
"This solution could be more adaptable in its application."
"They could improve the ease of developing the dashboard and interacting with it."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"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."
