          • "The learning curve should be improved, and I'm uncertain if tutorials are readily available or easily accessible. We may have resorted to looking on YouTube for such information.

          What is our primary use case?

          We used it to meet a client's requirements.

          What needs improvement?

          The learning curve should be improved, and I'm uncertain if tutorials are readily available or easily accessible. We may have resorted to looking on YouTube for such information. Having easily understandable documents or guides for new users would be beneficial. Quick references like these would encourage more users to explore and utilize the features effectively. AI integration would be an interesting feature to add in the next release.

            Allows users to easily drag and drop data and decide what to measure and what to see in the reports
            Pros and Cons
            • "The specific capability I find important in Oracle Analytics Cloud is that it allows the basic user to easily drag and drop data. I also like that the solution allows the user to decide what to measure and what to see in the reports."
            • "Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."

            What is our primary use case?

            We've selected Oracle Analytics Cloud as our visualization tool, and its use case is for visualization, particularly because we already have an ERP system, and we also have a lot of data across different functions, for example, in finance and sales.

            What is most valuable?

            The specific capability I find important in Oracle Analytics Cloud is that it allows the basic user to easily drag and drop data. I also like that the solution allows the user to decide what to measure and what to see in the reports.

            What needs improvement?

            Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it.

            For how long have I used the solution?

            I've been using Oracle Analytics Cloud for almost one year.

            What do I think about the stability of the solution?

            Oracle Analytics Cloud is a stable solution. It has good stability.

            What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

            Oracle Analytics Cloud is a scalable solution.

            How was the initial setup?

            I'm only using the web portal and my computer, so I'm unable to comment on whether the setup or deployment of Oracle Analytics Cloud is straightforward or complex.

            What other advice do I have?

            I'm using Oracle technology: Oracle Analytics Cloud. It's a cloud subscription, so it doesn't have a software version. The solution is deployed on a private cloud.

            Fifty people are using Oracle Analytics Cloud within my company, and they are in the financial and sales departments. The solution is used across the company.

            My rating for Oracle Analytics Cloud is nine out of ten.

            Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

            Private Cloud

              Pros and Cons
              • "The technical support is excellent, and they respond quickly."
              • "It is expensive."

              What is our primary use case?

              I think the solution is great as is.

              What needs improvement?

              It is expensive so the cost could be better.

              For how long have I used the solution?

              We used this solution for about one year. Oracle Analytics Cloud is more refined compared to the on-premises version of OBIEE. It's simpler to use and takes very minimal effort to set up compared to OBIEE.

              What do I think about the stability of the solution?

              It is a stable solution.

              What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

              It is a scalable solution.

              How are customer service and support?

              The technical support is excellent, and they respond quickly.

              What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

              I do not know the exact costs, but enterprise customers shy away from purchasing Oracle Analytics Cloud and prefer competing solutions from Tableau and Microsoft.

              What other advice do I have?

              I rate the solution an eight out of ten. Regarding advice, consider doing a very detailed proof of concept before purchasing.

                Real User
                Very easily customized; scalable and stable
                Pros and Cons
                • "The product is easily customized."
                • "The interfaces could be improved and some in-memory operations could be built in."

                What is our primary use case?

                Our customers use Analytics Cloud, they are always E-Business Suite customers. The product is generally used for transactional data because for EBS there is no discovery support. We build Analytics on-premise or on cloud and use E-Business Suite for financials and logistics. All reports are developed using Oracle Analytics aside from the principal ones or standard reports coming from inside E-Business Suite. We generally work with enterprise size companies that use various analytics and reporting tools, not just Oracle Analytics. I'm a managing partner in a consulting firm and we are customers of Oracle.

                What is most valuable?

                We use Analytics because we have a model for it which can be easily customized. Implementation time can be reduced because of this. 

                What needs improvement?

                The interfaces could be improved and some in-memory operations could be built into Oracle Analytics. We try to supply those kinds of things using database capabilities. Oracle removed things like cookies in its integration and that caused problems with SSL. I sent the reporting EDS which required a lot of work. It was more integrated with EDS, but now it's more standalone and it bothers me because it requires additional work when customers want to upgrade. Previously, that wasn't necessary so I think those kinds of things can be improved.

                For how long have I used the solution?

                I've been using this solution for three years. 

                What do I think about the stability of the solution?

                The product is stable. 

                What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

                The product can be distributed so it's scalable. Our largest customer is a telecommunications company that has almost 10,000 users.

                How are customer service and technical support?

                We are okay on support so we don't need to use Oracle technical support much. 

                Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

                I've used Tableau and I like it. Reports are very fast and I like their interfaces and things can be inherited from or inspired from the other tools.

                How was the initial setup?

                Installation takes two or three days if you install on-premise, it's the customer's choice whether it's installed on cloud or on-prem. The time-consuming thing is analyzing the reports and building a report for it. We have five engineers who deal with our projects. Our technical personnel are all engineers.

                What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

                There is a paid license that is required and then the customer pays us for customization.

                What other advice do I have?

                I rate this solution an eight out of 10.
