Financial Controller at Zalando SE
Powerful BI tool for analyzing financial performance and stable performance
I would rate the scalability of Jedox a seven out of ten. There is room for improvement in the scalability. It is a very massive tool. It's not easy to just build everything yourself. So that's where the main improvements lie—making it easy for people to not depend on just technical finance teams. There are almost 50 to 60 users using Jedox in our organization.

Empower financial planning with user-friendly and robust features
The best features of Oracle Hyperion revolve around their cloud-based technology, which is gradually moving to cloud solutions such as EPMCSG, while Anaplan uses two engines for calculations, the classic engine and the Essbase engine. Anaplan allows for quick module changes, where adjustments in one module reflect throughout the user experience. In contrast, Oracle Hyperion relies on Essbase as a database with calculation scripts and business rules, and it incorporates Smart View technology for Excel connections, providing a familiar interface for users. Oracle Hyperion is fundamentally a good technology and does not require significant improvements compared to other technologies because it is user-friendly and offers several advantages in financial reporting and consolidation. However, I have observed that Anaplan has built-in UX pages for report preparation, unlike Oracle Hyperion, which often relies on third-party tools such as Hyperion Financial Reporting and Power BI for reporting.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The ETL function simplifies many tasks."
"The system is quite flexible. Based on our requirements, we create different cubes that can help us to do complete planning."
"We can configure and have complete freedom while creating solutions."
"The customer porting is the most valuable feature."
"The EPM is the most valuable feature."
"The ETL itself was pretty useful and it's integrated in the tenant itself. So the Olap service technology was impressive to me. In order to extract that and load it in the tube in the same tenant or the same tool that was something magnificent because I actually missed this in SEB. SEB requires another tool, and you have to integrate all the tools together. But for Jedox, it was in the one tool."
"The main strength of Jedox lies in mastering the navigation, especially the Excel add-in."
"The data entry point is most valuable. The way we can customize our report or do data entry is very good."
"The latest cloud version is more efficient for financial implementations."
"Oracle Hyperion has helped make things work faster in our company."
"Its major impact is that it reduced manual work since using Oracle Hyperion, and Oracle Hyperion data can now be updated, with data loads completed in 30 minutes."
"Oracle Hyperion is fairly user-friendly and not too complicated. The forecasting, it's really good. It's sometimes slow when there are a lot of users using it and we can have up to approximately 300 users using it. However, you can do it in Excel because there's an Excel add-in. This is a benefit because a lot of people do this way instead of having to go into the planning application itself."
"Stable and scalable solution with a valuable data integration feature which allows the slicing and dicing of data. It also has a workforce planning feature that allows you to bring in your HR data."
"Oracle has an integrated solution for Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) and Hyperion. It keeps the two platforms opened up to each other."
"The scalability is good."
"Scalability isn't a problem for Hyperion."
 

Cons

"I think it's the design of the report because the design and the UI for the report is standard and lame. When you see a Jedox report, it doesn't seem like it's from today, because the technology is something from the last decade. The scalability needs improvement."
"There is not much training for Jedox."
"From a development perspective, there's room for improvement in the area called the designer, where you actually build your reports to make it easier to manage the process."
"Online pixel-perfect reporting is an aspect that has room for improvement."
"The tool has changed its pricing and it's now too expensive for small and medium organizations. I miss the open-source version which was free and we could do a lot of things with it."
"The solution should enable a modern look and feel in the front end."
"The solution needs to improve its support. The visualization in Microsoft BI is more modern and comfortable than Jedox's. I would expect something similar with the solution."
"I don't find it particularly user-friendly."
"From a technical perspective, the technical support could be improved and the price could be reduced."
"The analytical side of the product could be better and needs to be improved."
"Oracle Hyperion generally it's quite a complex architecture that is hard to maintain."
"We are still having some issues with the ASO Cube. It can take a long time to clear the data in the ASO Cube compared to BSO data-clearing operations. We don't have a specific calculation in the ASO, and we only have these aggregate options on the ASO side. If we need calculations, we have to calculate them in the BSO and pass the data to the ASO Cube for the reporting. That's one of the drawbacks. Oracle could also improve on the data logging side as well."
"Improvements are needed in the tool's performance."
"I would like to see more integrations with third-party vendors such as BigSense and SAP. I'm looking forward to seeing more interface-related content."
"The most important aspect for improvement is the time efficiency when handling large databases."
"They could support machine learning algorithms for the product."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Jedox was a bit cheaper compared to Calumo."
"The product’s pricing will not be suitable for setting up a small solution."
"The solution's pricing is specific to your requirements."
"Excellent value for money."
"We paid a one-time fee, which included product purchase, licensing, and first-time implementation. We are paying for the maintenance regularly."
"If you are using SAP, then you will have to take an SAP Connector license. The license across the tool is paying for the people who are using it as an admin or as a normal user. They can work out those costs in a manner that can help. This can also be a point of improvement where they can work out the costing, and the developers have a specific licensing cost. The normal users, who are going to do probably data entry or just going to view the dashboard, can have a separate license cost."
"To get a full license, which gives you access to most of the different Hyperion programs, it costs $2000 to $2500 a month."
"It might be considered relatively costly compared to some alternatives."
"The solution is affordable."
"As Oracle's pricing is on the higher end, most businesses prefer to have their own private cloud."
"We pay for licensing yearly."
"Compared with MSBA, it is quite reasonable."
"The licensing cost for the on-premises version of the solution is too high."
"Oracle Hyperion is not an inexpensive solution."
