BenjaminArnulf
Senior Director BI & Analytics at Hertz Global Holdings, Inc.
Enables us to deliver faster analytics and to have a self-secured, self-tuning, self-maintained platform
What is our primary use case?
Our primary use case for Oracle Analytics is to offer financials, procurement and HR analytics for the global employees as well as data exploration on different data sources.Pros and Cons
- "Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly."
- "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."
What other advice do I have?
We love it. I would definitely give this product a 10 out of 10.BenjaminArnulf
Senior Director BI & Analytics at Hertz Global Holdings, Inc.
Has a fast and friendly interface for data exploration from multiple sources
What is our primary use case?
We use Oracle Analytics DV, which is included in Oracle Analytics Cloud, for data exploration over our payables, accounting, revenue, procurement, spend, and locations data.Pros and Cons
- "The best feature may be data flow, which is used to prepare and clean data."
- "The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
What other advice do I have?
Oracle Analytics DV is not just a data visualization tool like Tableau or Power BI, but an entire data platform. Users can connect to multiple data sources including Snowflake, Oracle, and Redshift, and they can perform data preparation with complex formulas. They can create an Essbase cube in a click, replicate tables, store millions of lines in memory, analyze data using AI with the ExplAIn function, and create machine learning models.

Eric Brosseau
Independent Consultant - Oracle BI Applications at Desjardins
Complete product with excellent stability and scalability with no downtime
Pros and Cons
- "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."
- "As with most BI tools, the visualizations can be made much nicer. Currently, it has standard visualizations. They've been adding new visualizations, but we see animated visualizations from other vendors. It would be nice to have similar visualizations, such as the swarming visualizations, which are fairly new and very popular at the moment. I haven't seen that with Oracle. That would be nice."
What other advice do I have?
It really has everything that I want and need. It's very easy. I would rate this solution a nine out of ten. It would be nice to see swarming kind of visualizations. Other than that, it's a complete product.

Good dashboards and reporting, secure, and the machine learning enablement is helpful
What is our primary use case?
This product is used for reporting and visualization. We are not using the latest version but rather, one version back.Pros and Cons
- "The AI/ML enablement is useful, as many reporting tools do not offer machine learning models as of now, without writing customized code."
- "At this time, dataflows cannot be shared, but I think that this should be enhanced."
What other advice do I have?
I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.GauravSingh1
Vice President Credit Risk Management at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Stable, reasonably-priced, good support, and the BAS and narrate features work well
What is our primary use case?
I am a software designer and a part of the technical team and we create the dataflows for the end-user.Pros and Cons
- "The features that I find to be the most valuable are the BAS (Business Analytics), the Narrate feature, and the auto-visualization."
- "Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
What other advice do I have?
Depending on the needs of business to business, but as far a visualizations are concerned, this is a good product. Anyone can update for Business Intelligence. I would rate Oracle Analytics Cloud an eight out of ten.Popular Comparisons
