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.

Empower financial planning with user-friendly and robust features
The best features of Oracle Hyperion revolve around their cloud-based technology, which is gradually moving to cloud solutions such as EPMCSG, while Anaplan uses two engines for calculations, the classic engine and the Essbase engine. Anaplan allows for quick module changes, where adjustments in one module reflect throughout the user experience. In contrast, Oracle Hyperion relies on Essbase as a database with calculation scripts and business rules, and it incorporates Smart View technology for Excel connections, providing a familiar interface for users. Oracle Hyperion is fundamentally a good technology and does not require significant improvements compared to other technologies because it is user-friendly and offers several advantages in financial reporting and consolidation. However, I have observed that Anaplan has built-in UX pages for report preparation, unlike Oracle Hyperion, which often relies on third-party tools such as Hyperion Financial Reporting and Power BI for reporting.

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 both its budgeting and forecasting."
"This is a customizable product. Our implementation was designed to fit our needs."
"Scalability isn't a problem for Hyperion."
"Smart View is a really useful tool because we can have a good API with HFM."
"Scalability is one of this solution's big plus points."
"The scalability is good."
"The stability is fine and quite user friendly."
"We can collect data from various sources, which is very useful for budgeting and planning."
"Oracle has an integrated solution for Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) and Hyperion. It keeps the two platforms opened up to each other."
 

Cons

"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."
"This solution's stability is a little problematic."
"I have not seen return on investment from using Oracle Hyperion."
"I have a problem with Hyperion when I need to log some changes in the budget. It's hard to know who made which changes in the budget."
"Pricing is a significant concern. After moving to PBCS and EPBCS, the per-user license fees can be reduced, particularly for bulk users."
"The interface could be better. It could be more user-friendly, it is not very intuitive."
"I found the initial setup to be complex."
"Oracle EPM Cloud solutions have simplified the security model. Nevertheless, it would be better having a more differentiated security model."
"What I like is to have everything on one platform and not in different modules like Oracle Hyperion."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Oracle Hyperion's licensing structures are quite expensive for some companies, especially medium-sized companies because of the user-based license."
"The solution is affordable."

"As Oracle's pricing is on the higher end, most businesses prefer to have their own private cloud."
"Compared with MSBA, it is quite reasonable."
"Oracle Hyperion is not an inexpensive solution."
"We pay for licensing yearly."
"It might be considered relatively costly compared to some alternatives."
