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

"It's a good product for your end to end BI needs when its all on the cloud."
"Using this tool, we were able to forget about using Excel and keep using it as the only source of data."
"It's really an enterprise solution. It has a dashboard, like standard dashboarding functionality. It also has reporting capabilities for producing pixel-perfect reports, bursting large volumes of a document if you need to. It has interactive data discovery functionality, which you would use to explore your data, bring your own data, and merge it with maybe the data from an enterprise data warehouse to get new insights from the pre-existing data. It has machine learning embedded in the solution. If you're new to machine learning, it's a really good way to get into it, because it's all within this platform, and it's really easy to use."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is more refined compared to the on-premises version of OBIEE."
"I have found that the scalability quality of Oracle Analytics Cloud works extremely well."
"Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us, as all employees can access it from anywhere, which is a big advantage for us."
"Technical support is very fast and accurate."
"The features that I find to be the most valuable are the BAS (Business Analytics), the Narrate feature, and the auto-visualization."
 

Cons

"When the source is big and/or the source is Netsuite there are issues."
"It is less scalable than Snowflake."
"This product does not support custom charts in the visualization."
"The interfaces could be improved and some in-memory operations could be built into Oracle Analytics."
"We did not have a positive experience with technical support."
"I looked at the predictive analytics feature in Oracle Analytics Cloud, but I used it very little because, everything considered, it does not add very much."
"The solution could be more flexible."
"It should simplify data connectivity and modeling, making data extraction more streamlined and adaptable for diverse use cases."
"The learning curve should be improved, and I'm uncertain if tutorials are readily available or easily accessible. We may have resorted to looking on YouTube for such information. Having easily understandable documents or guides for new users would be beneficial. AI integration would be an interesting feature to add in the next release."
