Great reporting and graphics but integration needs to be improved
One area for improvement would be integration. We've had problems with bottlenecks when creating the data warehouse because we didn't have all the information available. Integration also isn't as easy with Oracle BI as with other tools like Power BI or Tableau. In the next release, I'd like Oracle to include the ability to integrate with information that comes from large sources.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features are XFB for its FTPS and SFTP."
"It provides centralized monitoring and managing of organization application file transfers, which helps to reduce the time of monitoring of individual applications and helps us understand the file flow between applications and helps with troubleshooting issues."
"It is easy to use and is a feature-rich application in the EDI space."
"The pre-built data models are great, as is rapid implementation so that you can use all of the pre-developed Oracle features rather than doing the heavy lifting."
"Calculations are a little bit faster, and it can do the on-the-run calculations much better than other reporting platforms, so you don't need any other specific tool and can use Microsoft Office to start doing things with these reports."
"It’s web-based so that I can have multiple users accessing the same data, it provides ease of use and its formatting means we can use the data, export it to Excel, and manipulate the data afterward if we need to."
"The most valuable features are the reporting and the graphics."
"Calculations are a little bit faster. It can do the on-the-run calculations much better than other reporting platforms. You don't need any other specific tool. You can use Microsoft Office to start doing things with these reports."
"There is a multitude of already developed objects that allow you to create and/or improve existing reports in a reasonably easy way."
"Oracle BI has improved our organization by having a more robust solution than Oracle Discoverer."
"It has a very robust dashboard and ad-hoc reporting."
 

Cons

"Axway Synchrony Gateway 6.11.4 is no longer supported by the vendor."
"The logging could be better in XFB."
"There are cheaper alternatives available in the market."
"The initial setup was difficult because not all the information was included in the implementation model."
"As far as costs are concerned, as their current version of SQL Server is now on a Linux platform, it's now become something that we are starting to look at it."
"It is very cumbersome and slow for making any changes. It doesn't have that many visuals to show different graphs and charts. It should have more visuals. It also doesn't support HTML5, which is useful for interactive sessions and reporting with dashboard etc. We are phasing it out because we need a newer platform that provides us more flexibility and more designs. Our use case is just to get the utility type of monthly reports, and we need visuals, customizations, columns, and certain sections on the report to show performance and other things. They are not updating their BI Publisher product, which was known as XML Publisher before Oracle bought it. It could be because they don't have that many clients using it. We are using it because we have this solution for years."
"Technical Support is not great. I do not have much to complain about, as I only had a few questions with no response."
"The initial setup was complex and it took a lot of time to set up the infrastructure."
"It was really unstable when it was first released on 11.1.1.7.1 back in May of 2013, but it has slowly become more stable over time."
"The initial setup was difficult because not all the information was included in the implementation model."
"The initial setup was complex and it took a lot of time to set up the infrastructure."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"As with any case study that we’ve ever done, it’s not so much a problem with the application or security or anything of that nature. It’s basically the cost infrastructure. Compared to other solutions, it’s one of the more costly solutions out there. It’s the biggest concern nowadays that upper management has."
"It is expensive. It is more than 100K for support. You pay for support on top of the standard licensing, which is on a yearly basis."
