    If you do not have a large budget and are a large organization, I would steer clear of Actuate. If you are looking to do very complex washboarding, I would not use them. Your developers have to be very skilled to work with this. Plan to bring in consultants if necessary to help your process. Adhoc reporting is weak. If your pricing is user based and you expand, this could be very expensive.

    • Auditing/versioning/event logs are helpful and effective.
    • Data model is very capable and flexible and provides advanced functionality out of the box.
    • Highly customizable, almost intimidating the number of options.
    • The bundled components (Patterns and ActiveSpaces) are necessary and are what really give the tool so many capabilities.

    Cons
    OpenText
    • The documentation on all the available features, but most importantly on the scripting side, can be improved
    • The standard look & feel of some basic options, like parameter selection or sorting and filtering, looks dated and can't be customized
    • The server portal needs to provide better tools
    • More integration is needed with other OpenText products

    • Onboarding process was a bit difficult.
    • data visualizations could have a better UI.
    • Dashboard sometimes seems crowded, so another UI issue.

    I am no longer working for the company that was using Actuate but I believe they would continue to use it because the stitching costs would be to high. It would require a complete rewrite of the reports and the never version of Actuate (BIRT) even required an almost complete report rewrite

    Usability
    OpenText
    It is quite intuitive to use. It is fit specifically for doing sentiment, emotion, and intention analysis as well as text classification and text summarization. I would have given 10 if it is fit for the purpose of doing image processing and analysis as well. There is a huge market to analyze video and image data.

    It is vastly superior to these in many ways, for complex reporting it is a much more sophisticated solution. Visualizations are very good. Javascript extensibility is very powerful, others don't support this or as well. Pentaho and MS are both OLAP oriented. Pentaho is moving more toward big data, which was not our primary focus. Others are stuck in the Crystal Reports Band metaphor.

    It is quite better than Microsoft Access, as Microsoft Access is an already known software to all which is simple, easy, and productive; many people want a change in the software which is already present in the PC, so I chose this software, which is totally different and better than ever, to be the simplest and the most productive and the most powerful data management software.

    Return on Investment
    OpenText
    • Actuate can handle 50 to 60 sub reports inside a report very well.
    • Dynamically creating the datasource, chart, graph, reports are the main advantages. We can do any level of drilling, and can create a performance matrix dashboard efficiently.
