We performed a comparison between Oracle Analytics Cloud and Tableau based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Visualization solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"The most valuable features of the solution are dashboarding and data visualization."
"It plays a crucial role in facilitating decision-making for various organizational stakeholders."
"The AI/ML enablement is useful, as many reporting tools do not offer machine learning models as of now, without writing customized code."
"Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly."
"It's valuable feature is that it is user-friendly and doesn't require much time for understanding. The solution is stable. The initial setup was straightforward."
"The technical support is excellent, and they respond quickly."
"The best feature may be data flow, which is used to prepare and clean data."
"The geospatial maps representation and the visualizations are nice."
"The best part about Tableau is the visualization."
"Compared to other products, visualization features are really good."
"It's very easy to visualize data with this product. The visualization maps of and frames that we have been able to cross-reference has been excellent."
"The ability of filtering and segmentation of the data makes it very flexible compared to other tools."
"The initial setup is simple."
"Tableau is easy to use compared to some other solutions, such as Excel."
"It provides business users with a tool, so they are not dependent on IT."
"This solution could be more adaptable in its application."
"Its machine learning and visualization capabilities can be improved. There should be more visualization options."
"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."
"The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
"It is expensive."
"Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
"It is less scalable than Snowflake."
"The product should improve its user interface. It should be welcoming and modern. Developers should also find it easier to build data models. Oracle Analytics Cloud needs to have better visualizations and more options in the marketplace."
"In the next release, there should be more information describing each chart because users have a difficult time telling them apart. They should also include the animations/videos, similar to Power BI."
"An advanced type of visualization is a bit tricky to create. It has something called a Calculated field, and that sometimes gets a bit difficult to use when you want to create an advanced type of visualization."
"If I have to develop any, for example, pie charts, I can develop them just fine. However, if I have to develop a donut chart, that I cannot do it in a simple way. There are tricks that I need to use if I have to design a donut chart. It should be more flexible and provide more visualization options."
"Tableau is difficult to scale because of the cost, which makes it difficult to scale."
"Licensing and pricing options could be made better so that more users would be able to use it."
"In the next release, I would like to be able to have the option to see more raw data that I'm converting on the dashboard."
"The charts in Tableau are quite limited."
"Creating empty extracts is not easy."
