EazyBI Cloud vs. Oracle Analytics Server

EazyBI is a great tool to create custom reports based on team performance where measures like Hours Spent are used. It's not as easy as measuring capacity, since that still must be done externally and saved in user-defined formulas

The entire deployment and configuration stage was easy and it was accessible across the organization in a matter of days. Oracle Analytics Server being a cloud-based solution helped right from Input of Bulk Data to Info preparation, Data cleaning, and finally Data Modeling. Everything was visual and the Help Wizard was very intuitive.

• Gauges make it easy to understand how teams are performing against targets.
• Customizable formulas make it possible to measure what matters most to your team and company.
• This tool eliminated the need for ad-hoc analysis, and managers could repurpose the time saved into other qualitative measures instead.

• Oracle helps with easy customization of reports.
• It helps with the creation of dashboards and the integration of different data sources.
• Oracle BI was a package used for multiple users across our organization - publishing and distributing reports was a breeze.

• Documentation by use case instead of key word matches.
• SME webinars on at smaller intervals of time.
• Built-in assistance tools for formula debugging

Incentivized

• More AI but with human back up.
• Less mumbo jumbo so even IT guys/gals can more easily work.
• More statistics (math) and orientation for those not familiar with it.
• More live as well as virtual (live) show casing of real situations in business.

Scalability and rich integration capabilities. In the future, if we go with Hyperion for the Financial Consolidation and planning purposes -BI integration with Hyperion is going to be much simpler as it has native interface connectivity and even integration capabilities with well known CRM products (Siebel) and ERP Products (Oracle EBS, Peoplesoft, SAP) is going to be easy and straight forward.

For me or a staff memeber that uses it frequently, its usability is sufficient. However newbies could have a few issues but find their workflow

No problems, it's that simple.

Other than anomalies or expected quirks, there were never any earth-shattering delays.

It's fast, efficient and easy to work with. Scheduling could help when planning out a day however overall it's a big plus when rolling out and supporting Oracle.

Oracle University offers very in-depth training.

It was a private training site.

A properly implemented Endeca solution performs extremely well on the largest of datasets and it positions your organization to immediately achieve your ROI.

EazyBI is the only tool that allows for dynamic reporting. I'd highly recommend investing the time to learn how to create user-defined formulas since the return on value will increase as time passes

Oracle BI works pretty well and has been well acknowledged and appreciated by the business users and power users who develop reports and dashboards. Compared to other tools, Oracle BI object development is easier and has a quick turnout. Using Oracle BI with Essbase and Oracle Exadata db, we believe the performance rendering data is quite good. We are using MicroStrategy as well almost equally, but for critical reporting needs considering the back end is Oracle and Oracle Financial Services Analytical Applications (OFSAA) we have chosen OBIEE.

We have seen the results of this in our initial research and are not surprised that Oracle does this like it does soo many other things in this area, so well.

• Since EazyBI can be configured for team quantitative measures, collaboration time now focuses on brainstorming and discussion around projects.
• Since user-defined formulas are reused across reports, there's less deviation in reporting from different people.
• There's less time spent debating the reporting setup since reports are configured once and kept current through the fiscal quarter.

• We've used OBIEE (or it's previous named product) for over 13 years and it's still the most used tool for BI by the business.
• We moved our largest business system off of Business Object into OBI so we could gain improved performance, reliability, and easier management of metadata.
