User Testimonials
	Oracle Warehouse Builder
Likelihood to Recommend	Oracle The best place for Oracle Warehouse Builder is at the business IT level. It's not suited for business-level users. They are easy confused. One way to reduce the confusion for the developers is to set up the workspaces based on the requirements that are discovered in design sessions. Once this is complete, the implementation of Oracle Warehouse Builder can take flight and be successful. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Oracle Easy transformation. Easy implementation from Oracle to Oracle systems. Ease of usage and easy to learn. Starting component of metadata management. Incentivized Gurcan Orhan Enterprise Data WareHouse Architect Read full review
Cons	Oracle What I noticed is that sometimes OWB doesn't generate the best SQL in the package especially when there are a high number of source tables in the ETL. It would be nice if ETL developers were allowed to update the generated packages in the database directly. Another thing - moving OWB ETLs from one database to another one could be easier - for example it would be nice to just copy the generated packages from one database to the other one without doing the deployment of these ETLs through OWB.
