Overall Satisfaction with Business Intelligence Discoverer

Business Intelligence Discoverer is used for reporting purposes by different departments across the company. The tool helps the business gain visibility to transactional data entered in the core Oracle ERP system.
  • User friendly interface
  • Ease of use
  • Fast report building
  • The generated SQL queries should be standardized so that they could be re-used in TOAD
  • Enable reading from different sources, not necessarily Oracle DB
It regarded as a tool that can primarily be used by Oracle core users versus the general public where other tools such as Tableau seem to have more traction.
