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 main strength of Jedox lies in mastering the navigation, especially the Excel add-in."
"The ETL function simplifies many tasks."
"The EPM is the most valuable feature."
"The solution is very versatile."
"The Excel interface is designed to retrieve data from the database and send it back, which is a significant advantage."
"The data entry point is most valuable, and the way we can customize our report or do data entry is very good."
"The data entry point is most valuable. The way we can customize our report or do data entry is very good."
"We use the tool for performance management and planning."
"It has reduced the amount of paperwork as multiple people can work on a single form, centralize formula creation window (only one person/team is responsible for creating it), It is also possible to maintain history for X number of years, and compare budgets from previous years through just one form and the process of workflow management."
"Speed of data is the biggest key for our users."
"We can collect data from various sources, which is very useful for budgeting and planning."
"Since it is an enterprise-capable solution, people are not worried about security, giving data, the ability to manage complex consolidation, and its ability to modify reporting."
"Scalability is one of this solution's big plus points."
"Oracle has an integrated solution for Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) and Hyperion, and it keeps the two platforms opened up to each other."
"In the most simplest way, the product allows the availability of data to be predefined as well as customized based on user inputs and requirements."
"The latest cloud version is more efficient for financial implementations."
 

Cons

"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."
"More emphasis is needed on the availability of the learning aspect of the solution. Because unless you take up their course that enables you to be an expert in creating the report, you must seek help."
"Visualization is something they need to improve. There should be some dropdown facilities in it like Excel."
"Visualization is something they need to improve. We have already told them about this, and they should be working on it."
"There is room for improvement in the scalability. It is a very massive tool. It's not easy to just build everything yourself."
"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."
"The solution should enable a modern look and feel in the front end."
"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."
"The user interface is in need of improvement. The forms should be more user-friendly."
"The reporting feature in Oracle Hyperion isn't the best. It needs improvement, but from what I know, they're offering a new reporting package."
"The support could be improved as service requests can sometimes take a very long time to be dealt with - we have some SRs that are a year old with no solution."
"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."
"Oracle should have provided better documentation, and should update it more often."
"We still have issues and bugs because it's a new release."
"I found the initial setup to be complex."
"Most of the time it takes three months and you don’t get results."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Jedox was a bit cheaper compared to Calumo."
"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."
"The solution's pricing is specific to your requirements."
"The product’s pricing will not be suitable for setting up a small solution."
"Excellent value for money."
"The licenses cost approximately $1,000."
"The licensing cost for the on-premises version of the solution is too high."
"Oracle Hyperion is not an inexpensive solution."
"Oracle Hyperion's licensing structures are quite expensive for some companies, especially medium-sized companies because of the user-based license."
"We pay for licensing yearly."
"Compared with MSBA, it is quite reasonable."
"As Oracle's pricing is on the higher end, most businesses prefer to have their own private cloud."
"To get a full license, which gives you access to most of the different Hyperion programs, it costs $2000 to $2500 a month."
