Automation of financial processes streamlines operations but pricing needs improvement
Our clients mostly use Hyperion for their financial requirements, including budgeting, forecasting, and planning The feature that allows automation of the budgeting and forecasting process is extremely valuable, especially when compared to Excel. The workflow management of planning and the…
Gopinath Bandekar - PeerSpot reviewer
A stable cloud-based solution that allows optimization in addition to process discovery and analysis
When the process models are transferred back to the design environment for further optimization and simulations, we need to see some improvements in the way the models get created in the design. It is very limited because of the transactional data. It seamlessly creates the BPML as well, but it would be easier if the other model, the EPC, were also created simultaneously.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Oracle Hyperion is an advanced analytical calculation engine that can handle aggregation."
"The stability is fine and quite user friendly."
"This solution provides a more structured methodology for doing analysis than a tool like Excel. It creates a central database that keeps all information in one place."
"Scalability is one of this solution's big plus points."
"Scalability isn't a problem for Hyperion."
"We like the reporting and tracking of financials."
"The scalability is good."
"It's very easy to use and the functionality is quite complete."
"One feature I found really cool was the Conformance Engine."
"I have found Software AG ARIS Process Mining scalable."
"It is a stable solution...I rate the technical support a ten out of ten...On a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy, I rate the setup a nine."
"The interface is simplified and easy to use."
"It is very easy to work on the way the ETL happens in ARIS Process Mining."
 

Cons

"The solution's reporting and dashboards need improvement."
"Integrating Oracle Hyperion, a multidimensional database, with relational databases poses challenges due to the differing database structures."
"The most important aspect for improvement is the time efficiency when handling large databases."
"The pricing model could be more flexible as it's more expensive than its competitors."
"I have a problem with Hyperion when I need to log some changes in the budget. It's hard to know who made which changes in the budget."
"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."
"I found the initial setup to be complex."
"The level of complexity of the implementation is always a challenge."
"Customizing KPIs and building dashboards were not as intuitive as other similar tools."
"There should be a single site for modeling and mining."
"When the process models are transferred back to the design environment for further optimization and simulations, we need to see some improvements in the way the models get created in the design."
"The installation is straightforward, we didn't have any technical issues with installing. However, we needed support to complete the implementation."
"I guess we have many unnecessary steps within our processes. There is room for automation and room for enhancement within our application portfolio management...In short, I would like to eliminate unnecessary steps in some processes in this solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It might be considered relatively costly compared to some alternatives."
"Compared with MSBA, it is quite reasonable."
"We pay for licensing yearly."
"The licensing cost for the on-premises version of the solution is too high."
"The licenses cost approximately $1,000."
"To get a full license, which gives you access to most of the different Hyperion programs, it costs $2000 to $2500 a month."
"Oracle Hyperion is not an inexpensive solution."
"As Oracle's pricing is on the higher end, most businesses prefer to have their own private cloud."
"We pay for a license to use this solution."
"The pricing is based on licenses."
"It's highly-priced, so it's not exactly a cheap product...We are getting what we are paying for, so on a scale of one to ten, or one is low, and ten is a high price, I rate the pricing a nine out of ten."
"Looking at the value it gives, ARIS Process Mining's pricing is fair."
