Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Machine Learning (formerly Oracle Advanced Analytics)

OAA (now OML) is being used at the departmental level, rolling up to the region (North America) and finally to the whole organization. It has assisted in identifying weaknesses and leakages in the organization and assessing anomalies in P&L, Balance Sheet, and Cashflow reporting. The ability to scale up has provided a unique view to assess what ails the organization as a whole from the ground up. The ability to address pervasive issues is critical in fixing the leakages and anomalies throughout the organization.
The other concern was being able to segment data and analytics by department. One dept. did not need to see the other department's numbers and vice versa. The ability to manage access rights is also a critical feature of this module.
  • Rights management.
  • Decimation of data from group to region to department, whittling down Big Data!
  • More pre-built tools, easier SQL query building.
  • Not sure I like the self balancing feature on the Balancesheet.
  • Acceleration in close.
  • Savings in level of effort to deliver presentation and analytics.
Sorry this product was not selected by me, but was a legacy install that was upgraded. I see the value in the product, however, I was not involved in the selection process.

Do you think Oracle Machine Learning delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Oracle Machine Learning's feature set?

Yes

Did Oracle Machine Learning live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Oracle Machine Learning go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Oracle Machine Learning again?

Yes

Well suited for distributed and structured finance team. Less suited for ad hoc analytical requirements. When building repeatable SQL queries which often take a good bit of time, this is a great platform. Queries that are significantly complex need to be outsourced. On many occasions, a quick and dirty request is needed and often this is not the best platform to do that.
