Excellent for budgeting and forecasting, but long-term it will no longer be developed or supported
The fact that in a few years' time it is no longer going to be supported is a big concern. Therefore, I would advise against Hubble. Additionally, I think we underestimated the time for deployment, we thought it would be a few months and it took much longer than expected because the consultants didn't understand our process in detail before committing to the process. On a scale of one to ten, I would give Hubble a seven.

Facilitates timely decision making and enhances reporting efficiency
We are going to re-implement the Oracle Hyperion system due to changes in our chart of account process and some other factors. We were analyzing whether to move to a cloud system, EPM Cloud. We have already proceeded with our Oracle Hyperion re-implementation with the vendor, and it is in the approval process. All options have been evaluated. We have made comparisons between EPM Cloud and Oracle Hyperion. Oracle Hyperion is not too user-friendly. EPM Cloud has more support towards functional users who can generate reports according to their own needs. There are specific reasons why we have not moved to the cloud, such as our various processes including reconciliations. We do not prefer customization in Oracle Hyperion, but due to business needs, there may be a few minimal customizations made. The forms are a bit complex for functional users. To create and open forms is not simple. We need trained personnel, and training is essential to use it efficiently.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have saved hours of Excel work producing the same results, which Hubble gives in minutes."
"Hubble will truly blow you away once you get to know the product and the people behind it."
"Reporting was dramatically improved."
"Being able to create calculations, hierarchies, aging buckets, etc. has reduced the Excel reports we used to have."
"The most valuable features are both its budgeting and forecasting."
"The feature that allows automation of the budgeting and forecasting process is extremely valuable, especially when compared to Excel."
"One of the best features that we use in Oracle Hyperion is the data integration, as you can slice and dice data and innovate, which is something you can't do in other ERP systems, and this solution offers so many possibilities."
"Hyperion is helpful for all our budget processes."
"This product has been helping the organization to implement complex budgeting models."
"Hyperion is a stable product."
"The return on investment for this solution is good."
"Oracle has an integrated solution for Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) and Hyperion, and it keeps the two platforms opened up to each other."
"The platform is very easy to use from a user perspective, especially for nontechnical experts."
 

Cons

"When exporting to Excel, it is values only."
"The only thing I may add is that it can get a little pricey when you add annual maintenance."
"The fact that in a few years' time it is no longer going to be supported is a big concern. Therefore, I would advise against Hubble."
"We have been advised by the owners that the budgeting tool is no longer going to be supported with future development, so my recommendation would be for them to continue to invest in development. Otherwise, at some point we will have to migrate to another technology."
"Exporting to Excel takes a lot of time when broken into sheets/files."
"Hyperion has much room for improvement, especially disaster recovery. You don't have the option to choose the proper disaster recovery method. We have Hyperion and an SQL server on the backend. We have active solutions for the backend database server, which aren't working for our people. They've asked us to remove the high availability to increase application performance."
"The most important aspect for improvement is the time efficiency when handling large databases."
"In my opinion, the reporting features could be visually better, and prettier, than it is so far."
"I found the initial setup to be complex."
"The initial setup of Oracle Hyperion is very difficult."
"Pricing is a significant concern. After moving to PBCS and EPBCS, the per-user license fees can be reduced, particularly for bulk users."
"The pricing model could be more flexible as it's more expensive than its competitors."
"Improvements might relate to the integration of the visual aspect of the product. There is a scope for improvement in the governance of the product."

"It might be considered relatively costly compared to some alternatives."
"We pay for licensing yearly."
"Compared with MSBA, it is quite reasonable."
"Oracle Hyperion's licensing structures are quite expensive for some companies, especially medium-sized companies because of the user-based license."
