Find out in this report how the two Business Performance Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Instead of taking two people a week each month to perform our internal KPI reporting, the same two people can have it done in a day."
"Primary valuable features are its flexibility and versatility and, obviously, functionality goes along with that. Plus, it does that at a small footprint in the file servers, and does it very efficiently."
"It allows people to quickly create dashboards with reports."
"Now, we have only one version of the truth."
"We can build reports super fast."
"The tool seems to have a lot of ways to handle scaling."
"It has a good set of visual elements that you can use and can explain quite well."
"The drill down is good for people who have that high level view, because they can do some analysis based on it."
"It offers great ease of use. This impacts not only the end-user experience but also the administrator's, which affects the total cost of ownership."
"We were with Oracle previously. With Oracle, you have to buy a different piece of software for every business process. If you want to do budgeting, that's a product. If you want to do consolidation, that's a product. If you want to do BI type of work, that's yet another product. So, you end up buying a lot of software from Oracle. With OneStream, it is a little different. It is a platform where you can do all those things, and you can do them with just one software purchase and then you just pay for users on it."
"The product's most valuable feature is extensibility."
"It's very powerful, but there is also a big learning curve. It should be a little more intuitive."
"The product can be improved by making it possible to know where cubes are used."
"Some of our users are still using an MS Office add-in for Excel for certain calculations, and when they export from Board, some of the values, some of the totals and column names, are not coming through into Excel."
"Sometimes, the data disappears from the product."
"We have had some challenges with newer version of the rollout in terms of stability."
"Building similar models entirely from scratch could be made quicker with transfer abilities between databases and capsules."
"The setup was a bit complex."
"The one thing that I think we would like to see in terms of improvement of the application is the ability to print. It's fantastic to have all of these graphic visualization of data, but we're not able to very easily just print... From my perspective, if you can have a little "print" button and then you just click it and it would produce what's on the screen, that would be very helpful."
"We should be able to download the data in the same format we upload it."
"Currently, they only support one browser, and it would be good if you could use it on Chrome, Firefox, etc. It is a little frustrating that you can only use a certain Microsoft browser. They're pretty tightly aligned with Microsoft. So, I can see the reasons for it."
"AI is where I see the most innovation and progress, but it's not fully developed yet."
