reviewer2116137 - PeerSpot reviewer
Data Analytics Manager at a manufacturing company with 201-500 employees
It's useful for reporting on IoT KPIs, but it isn't as robust or user-friendly as some competing solutions
I was a little disappointed in Dundas. I found other tools like Tableau and Power BI to be more powerful. I intended to use Dundus as an organizational BI tool, but I think there's a significant learning curve with Dundas versus the others. The user experience and UI could also improve. It should be simpler for end users who don't have much technical knowledge. I have an IT background, but I think it might be challenging for anyone who is unfamiliar with databases.

Data projects have grown rapidly and support complex analytics and quick dashboard delivery
Some things that could be improved in Oracle Analytics Cloud is definitely the way it works. In some cases, for example, if you want to create analytic functions such as the percentage of a measure over another, which is a straightforward question you might ask, it appears simple to do, but the result is not what you expect. I would make it more user-friendly in terms of creating new measures. The measure creation feature could be improved. In terms of functionality, there are not many functions that are completely missing. There is one aspect that if you compare it with Power BI from Microsoft, which works completely in memory and therefore puts everything in memory to allow many calculations on the fly on what is in memory, that is missing, but it is architecturally different and would not be possible to ask for something like that. Some time features and time series analysis functions could be improved. Calculating a year ago and previous period functions could definitely work with some improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The ability to drag and drop dimensions into place and the ease of use that the reporting provides."
"It is a good tool with some very good out of the box features and good support for OLAP model and can be considered as implementing good dashboards."
"Dundas is great for creating attractive dashboards that look as though they have been custom designed rather than put together using a BI tool."
"I haven't contacted support, but my colleagues said they were satisfied with the response."
"Deployment was very simple and pulling in our SQL queries and stored procedures was a snap."
"If quick dashboards are required without heavy features or customization, and there is no dedicated BI/Analytics developer, then Dundas Dashbaords works fine."
"Combining SSAS and Dundas Dashboard has enabled us to consolidate this infrastructure into few very dashboards that offer the flexibility to analyze data by various dimensions quickly and easily."
"With Dundas, we can now enforce a standard using themes so that all the reports have the same look and feel no matter who creates it."
"Technical support is very fast and accurate."
"The product is able to compare with other tools on the market; it has everything you need, everything you can find in other tools such as Tableau and Power BI, and additionally, it has history, so you get a robust solution with support."
"It's great for consolidation and creating one source of truth."
"A valuable feature is the speed of the solution."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us, as all employees can access it from anywhere, which is a big advantage for us."
"The scalability is acknowledged as pretty good, although my evaluation is limited because I used the tool for a short period."
"It's valuable feature is that it is user-friendly and doesn't require much time for understanding. The solution is stable. The initial setup was straightforward."
"It's rather user-friendly."
 

Cons

"Installing - if someone has installed it using their work email as an ID, and they have moved on, and a new person is hired who needs to upgrade the currently running version, they can't do it."
"I was a little disappointed in Dundas. I found other tools like Tableau and Power BI to be more powerful. I intended to use Dundus as an organizational BI tool, but I think there's a significant learning curve with Dundas versus the others."
"The only improvement we have noticed would be if they could do away with using Silverlight."
"Random and obscure errors with poor exception details."
"Dundas is constantly not picking up cube changes when deployed."
"We’ve experienced an unusually large number of bugs in the product since implementation."
"On occasion, the programme would crash and provided very little in the way of an error report, which was extremely frustrating especially when work was lost as a result."
"In times of heavy load, the dashboards take a long time to load."
"The price of the solution could be lower."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."
"The product could benefit from increased flexibility compared to other vendors."
"The migration of older dash tools from the classic interface of Oracle BI prior to OAS launch to the newer Data Visualization and Oracle Analytics Cloud interfaces, including dashboards and metadata, is currently a cumbersome process. Improvements in this area would be highly beneficial. Additionally, the administration of the cloud, particularly the startup of services and linking of the WebLogic server and integrated components, takes longer than desired. In today's enterprise landscape, waiting forty minutes for the server to be operational is quite lengthy; ideally, this process should take a maximum of four minutes. It would be excellent to incorporate metadata management as an integral part of the Oracle Analytics Cloud. When dealing with integrated data from various sources, tracking data lineage and the entire data life cycle, from sources to report development and the mapping of reports to specific dashboards, should be seamlessly managed within the Oracle Analytics Cloud. This would eliminate the need for additional tools. Drawing a comparison, tools like Tableau have a feature enabling metadata management, making it easier to trace the complete data lineage of reports. Managing over seven hundred and thirty-six business dashboards, the metadata management capability within Tableau simplified the process of understanding how reports were developed, including details like associated tables, users, linked views, materialized views, data segmentations, ETL jobs, and the data warehouse stages. Enhancing metadata tracking within the Oracle Analytics Cloud layout would facilitate easy and practical management of the complete data life cycle, encompassing user accessibility and report permissions."
"It's not a failure of the product; it's just an architectural choice. It has to do with data modeling. I'm comparing this to another product, which is Oracle's developer client and probably called Oracle BI Developer Client Tool. The data modeler, which is cloud-based, and Oracle BI Developer Client Tool, which is local or on-premises-based, both can do the same thing in data modeling. However, the cloud tool does not have as many features as the Oracle BI Developer Client Tool, which is closest to the OBIEE Administration Tool with full feature data modeling, metadata development, and so forth. In a complex environment or implementation, that is the capability that you need."
"Its FAW feature has limitations in terms of usage."
"The pricing model in Microsoft is more straightforward. With Oracle, you have the data visualization and enterprise lines, and to put it simply, both appear as more expensive options for customers trying to get oriented in the segment."
"The implementation of generative AI and machine learning should improve"
