We performed a comparison between Microsoft Power BI 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."Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"It's similar to Excel, but it's much more powerful than Excel."
"The solution is very intuitive, you do not need to have too much programming knowledge to use it. Advanced Excel users can use it very easily."
"It seems stable. I haven't heard of any difficulties from my clients that utilize Power BI."
"The fact that you can visualize items is great."
"Management reporting solution that's very stable and scalable."
"Good CS and administration."
"The tool is very flexible so it allows creativity."
"This is a stable and scalable solution."
"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."
"I've discovered that the new layout of this product makes Docker sharing, machine learning support, and data backups more efficient. Unlike the older method of linking physical, pre-logical, and presentation layers separately, the new interface simplifies this process. Additionally, the integration of databases and machine learning is seamless, with the new visualization approach being particularly beautiful and highly beneficial."
"The solution can scale."
"The product is easily customized."
"It's really an enterprise solution. It has a dashboard, like standard dashboarding functionality. It also has reporting capabilities for producing pixel-perfect reports, bursting large volumes of a document if you need to. It has interactive data discovery functionality, which you would use to explore your data, bring your own data, and merge it with maybe the data from an enterprise data warehouse to get new insights from the pre-existing data. It has machine learning embedded in the solution. If you're new to machine learning, it's a really good way to get into it, because it's all within this platform, and it's really easy to use."
"The technical support services are good."
"It plays a crucial role in facilitating decision-making for various organizational stakeholders."
"It needs a wizard that covers all its options."
"Powerpoints are not available in the report server."
"My data is restricted to my DB and I'm not sure how this would handle an extremely large dataset."
"The only challenge I have found is that they do not have a Mac version."
"For someone who is new, I think that Power BI can be a little complicated."
"I would like them to provide a license that just allows us to see dashboards. What I don't like about this solution is that in order to just watch a dashboard, you need a license. Currently, you need to purchase a full license of Power BI Pro just to see something, which is not attractive. If you have a license, you can see a shared dashboard, but you can also build a dashboard or you can collaborate with other people. However, if you only want to see a dashboard, there is no license for that. I only want to see the dashboard, and I don't want to do anything more than watching the information on the dashboard. There is no license that allows you to see a shared dashboard. This is one of the areas of opportunity because I would like a lot of people to be able to see a shared dashboard, not to interact with it or to collaborate online with it. I would like to see more compatibility with non-Microsoft data sources. Given the fact that everything is related to Microsoft Azure and all services available on Microsoft Azure, I see that they're building more connections to Microsoft Azure services instead of other non-Microsoft services. I understand the strategy, but it would be good to have more compatibility with non-Microsoft data sources."
"We did have some issues building the Microsoft blog."
"Microsoft BI lacks some of the scheme features. It would be beneficial if there were a way to show how we move values in a different way."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."
"This solution could be more adaptable in its application."
"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."
"The solution could be more flexible."
"When we have, for example, a table with low performance, we have several issues with drawing some graphics in the Oracle cloud."
"Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
"It should simplify data connectivity and modeling, making data extraction more streamlined and adaptable for diverse use cases."
"It is less scalable than Snowflake."
