    PPT Animations - Animated Excel charts captivate the audience, make complex concepts easier to understand, and add dynamism to presentations. You have to get the hang of it. Limited compatibility: Advanced animations often work only on the local system. Display errors may occur when sharing the file with colleagues or clients.

    Once Oracle Data Service Integrator is set up properly, it is quite simple to snatch data from a myriad of disparate sources and put them into a single repository. Due to cost factors, it is not for the faint of heart; however, if you can handle it, the benefits will quickly outpace the initial investment. To take full advantage of the power of ODSI, I would recommend the training that Oracle provides.

    Usability
    Labdg
    Distraction: Too many effects "gimmicks" distract from the content and undermine the presentation's professionalism. Incompatibility with print - Since animations do not work on paper or in static PDF documents, they are unsuitable for handouts.

    Chart Animation dynamically changes data displays - like rolling dates. Whereas a backchart is a static overlay.

    While we tested and evaluated multiple data service providers, we came to choose Oracle Data Service Integrator since our infrastructure was so heavily dependent on Oracle software. The implementation would be easier and the difference in the number of features and performance wasn't enough to sway us in another direction.

    Return on Investment
    Labdg
    • No live data updates. As a result, incorrect numbers or charts were displayed. Application error.
    • It's really easy to compare different periods.

    Oracle
    • It provided terrific bulk data movement and data transformation services which we desperately needed
    • It allowed to reduce development costs and lower the total cost of ownership among disparate architectures
    • The enterprise edition's ELT allowed us to generate native code for wildly varied RDBMS
