"The most valuable feature is the ability to set up the automated delivery of reports."
"It is easy to create a report quickly. It does not take much time to create an ad hoc report."
"It doesn't have many frills and is definitely older technology, but it is undeniably a workhorse."
"The most valuable feature is the openness of the solution. It helps us integrate some of our clients."
"I like the cloud deployment feature. There are about 20 new features, and they are available on mobile and more. I haven't used any of them, but these features are highly attractive."
"The dashboard and analysis are the most valuable features of this solution."
"We do you use Oracle support. We've been paying for an Oracle support subscription for four or five years, and not one ticket has ever been logged. When I came in, I've encouraged the team to ask Oracle questions. They do get back quite quickly. Their support is good. Working with our account managers, if I need to escalate anything, I can speak to them and they escalate the call. I've got that ecosystem working quite well. That does work for us."
"It is useful to use a tool like this to have a view of data at a point in time. You can extract and create little data sets that you can store, and then over time, you can have a view for tracking changes. Especially when you work with a relational database or a database that's a production database, the data is dynamic, but if you use QlikView, you can take a snapshot of different datasets. In your own time, you can then get insights and report, build, analyze, and draw whatever you need from the data, which is quite useful."
"You can switch views easily."
"Data transforming with scripting, and the associative model that lets users browse data in an easy way, are the most valuable features."
"Its ability to build, very quickly, very complicated models."
"The language support is very good."
"We can scale it if we need to."
"The scalability is there."
"The solution is fast."
"BI Server"
"The complexity of this product means that you need to have a technical team to develop the reports, although this is also true for products like Microsoft BI and Zoho."
"Its functionality is lacking."
"There are a lot of aspects of Oracle OBIEE that are exceptionally complicated, make things unnecessarily difficult for everyone who uses it. In terms of the integrations, Oracle needs to improve a little more, but I believe that they have tried to capture all those issues. The issues we are facing in the Oracle OBIEE 12C versions, in the Oracle Analytical Server Center or Analytical Cloud versions, Oracle has managed to overcome the challenges."
"They should develop greater visualization because their visualization isn't industry leading at the moment. The way you pull the data and see the data compared to other platforms, they're lagging a little bit behind. Also, their cost. I've got Oracle account managers trying to persuade me every day to purchase these licenses. Once you purchase OBIEE, then you have to purchase the virtualization and then you have to purchase the mobile license to operate on the mobile. It's really expensive."
"It crashes when many people login simultaneously."
"We needed some technical expertise during setup."
"The performance could be better."
"If a user wanted to see something not included in the application the new object had to be created by a power user or developer because Qlik view's scripting has somewhat of a learning curve."
"The user interface is old."
"Sometimes the filters are disappearing, and I'm not sure why this is happening."
"There is a lack of static PDF report generation and automatic resizing of the dashboard to fit the device."
"It needs work with visualization."
"Though the initial setup phase is simple, when it comes to the integration with the custom systems, the configuration and the compatibility sometimes take some more time."
"They could improve the update time."
"There's room for improvement in the area of management's handling of concerns."
