Overall Satisfaction with Oracle BI Foundation Suite

We are using Oracle BI Foundation Suite Enterprise edition to meet our day to day analytical needs. We have been using Oracle BI in different departments like logistics, IT, etc. The important thing about the tool which makes it faster and reliable is to manage, load and extract data from its DB to its own DB tool.
  • Oracle BI Foundation suite is an overall package of enterprise reporting, multi-dimensional analytical processing, and real-time quick reporting.
  • Oracle BI Foundation has Exalytics, which delivers fast performance reports.
  • It has the flexibility to run on different platforms as it is built on Java.
  • The tool is not easy to use.
  • Oracle BI reporting of administration needs to be simplified for better administration and maintenance.
Oracle BI foundation suite has specific capabilities like scorecard and strategy management. It helps us to set specific goals, and track and manage performance.
Oracle Business Intelligence allows me to extract data to write and modify reports to use with all sorts of data analytics. It did not prepare dashboards, it mostly prepares data to Excel.
