User Testimonials
	Oracle Analytics Server
Likelihood to Recommend	Oracle 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Oracle 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Oracle 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Oracle 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.

Alternatives Considered	Oracle 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.

Scalability	Oracle 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Oracle 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.
