Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""It's robust. It has the ability to handle massive amounts. After reporting has been developed, there is an ease of use or a user-friendly interface for a trained workforce.""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.""The solution can scale.""Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly.""The features that I find to be the most valuable are the BAS (Business Analytics), the Narrate feature, and the auto-visualization.""This is a stable and scalable solution."

"It's the completeness of the solution that we like the most.""The most valuable feature of Splunk Enterprise Security is website activity monitoring.""Recently, Splunk upgraded to version 9.0.02, which includes excellent data dashboards and visualization effects.""There are quite a lot of things that we find useful. Splunk agents are useful and good. Its UI is quite impressive.""We can quickly search for almost anything across many log sources in seconds.""I like the ease with which dashboards can be created.""Speeds up root cause analysis and can help identify issues that your organization never realized were occurring.""One key advantage of Splunk over competitors like IBM QRadar is its superior device integration capabilities."

Cons
"It is less scalable than Snowflake.""The scalability has room for improvement.""It should simplify data connectivity and modeling, making data extraction more streamlined and adaptable for diverse use cases.""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.""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.""At this time, dataflows cannot be shared, but I think that this should be enhanced.""The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."

More Oracle Analytics Cloud Cons →

"The difficult part is related to integration with sources of data that are used to create the logs as this depends on the infrastructure of the client.""The configuration had a bit of a learning curve.""Search head clustering is often temperamental in its current state and should be improved, replaced by something better, or be reverted to search head pooling.""Over time I will have more requirements and I can foresee the solution could improve the search algorithm to run and output the data faster.""The solution has a high learning curve for users. It's a little complicated when you're trying to figure out all the features and what they do.""This is not really a monitoring solution.""We were inundated with the amount of alerts and alarms that we could get out of it. It is also a resource hog and we didn't have the resources to support it on-prem so we're taking it offline now.""Its pricing is extremely high. There are other tools out in the market that are competitive. They do not necessarily have all the functionality, but they are competitive. The professional services we have used have been high as well in comparison to the market."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by PeerSpot users currently using the Oracle Analytics Cloud solution.

    Fabricio Q., Data Analytics Manager, says, “The main functionality is great and everything is pretty standard and easy to use. It's great for consolidation and creating one source of truth. The initial setup is pretty straightforward.”

    PeerSpot user, Eric B., Independent Consultant - Oracle BI Applications at Desjardins, mentions “It's really an enterprise solution. It has 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.”

    Gaurav S., Vice President Credit Risk Management at a financial services firm, explains, “From a financial or bank perspective, this product is secure enough. The dashboards, analytics, visualizations, and different reports are valuable for business analytics. The AI/ML enablement is useful, as many reporting tools do not offer machine learning models as of now, without writing customized code.”

    Another reviewer, Trinh P., Delivery Manager at Sift Ag, comments, "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."
