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 prefer having our analytics capabilities in a single platform, which MicroStrategy's offers."
"It scales well. It used to have only a max of four I-servers, but I think recently, somewhere in version 10, they doubled that, so you can have eight I-servers now."
"I haven't come across any bugs."
"The convenience of it. Having it on the mobile, so someone has it right there in their pocket most of the time."
"The implementation was fairly straightforward."
"We have ramped up user adoption."
"The hyperintelligence is the most valuable feature."
"The single stack solution will always be more profitable, scalable, and elastic for organizational needs."
"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 product is easily customized."
"Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly."
"This is a stable and scalable solution."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's most valuable feature is its visualization."
"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."
"It's great for consolidation and creating one source of truth."
"It has the best feature for data augmentation."
"I would like to see a feature where migrations are easier. When you migrate from certain environments, it could probably be a little cleaner. Sometimes it seems to be somewhat clunky when you migrate from one environment, say a development to a test or production environment."
"There is room for improvement on the graphs."
"It would be good if it had greater analytics so we could build these visualizations by ourselves with scripts."
"MicroStrategy should become more user friendly. It should behave more like Tableau."
"We have not invested nor are we planning to invest in MicroStrategy's mobile platform."
"Its price should be lower. In terms of features, what we have is quite encompassing right now."
"We would really like to see MicroStrategy have some support teams based more in Europe, because for now it seems that there is one person for the whole CE region. That is not exactly what we would like to see. We do know that MicroStrategy supports most places, either in the US or India, but those are different time zones, people, and cultures."
"I would like to see more Writeback capabilities that would allow our IT department not to be worried about the wild, Wild West of Writeback."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
"The price of the solution could be lower."
"At this time, dataflows cannot be shared, but I think that this should be enhanced."
"Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
"Its machine learning and visualization capabilities can be improved. There should be more visualization options."
"The migration of older dash tools from the classic interface of Oracle BI prior to OAS launch to the newer Data Visualization and Oracle Analytics Cloud interfaces, including dashboards and metadata, is currently a cumbersome process. Improvements in this area would be highly beneficial. Additionally, the administration of the cloud, particularly the startup of services and linking of the WebLogic server and integrated components, takes longer than desired. In today's enterprise landscape, waiting forty minutes for the server to be operational is quite lengthy; ideally, this process should take a maximum of four minutes. It would be excellent to incorporate metadata management as an integral part of the Oracle Analytics Cloud. When dealing with integrated data from various sources, tracking data lineage and the entire data life cycle, from sources to report development and the mapping of reports to specific dashboards, should be seamlessly managed within the Oracle Analytics Cloud. This would eliminate the need for additional tools. Drawing a comparison, tools like Tableau have a feature enabling metadata management, making it easier to trace the complete data lineage of reports. Managing over seven hundred and thirty-six business dashboards, the metadata management capability within Tableau simplified the process of understanding how reports were developed, including details like associated tables, users, linked views, materialized views, data segmentations, ETL jobs, and the data warehouse stages. Enhancing metadata tracking within the Oracle Analytics Cloud layout would facilitate easy and practical management of the complete data life cycle, encompassing user accessibility and report permissions."
"They could improve the ease of developing the dashboard and interacting with it."
