Analytics features have improved our reporting workflows and support data‑driven decisions
The feature is called Oracle R Enterprise, and I have not worked with it. I have not used Oracle Enterprise. I am hearing about it for the first time. We have not used machine learning. We do not work with it for creating any data models from machine learning. My overall rating for this product is 8.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Easy to use, simple, with a quick learning curve."
"One of the valuable features is the ability to pull together multiple sources of information and the tools are easy to use which is the main factor."
"Oracle Advanced Analytics helps us to steer the company, to create centralized reports and dashboards so that we're all using the same information, and we're not relying that much on Excel and different custom reporting solutions."
"Oracle Data Mining provides a powerful functionality as it enables users to discover new insights hidden in data."
"The dashboard interface is intuitive and the user is able to interact with it to receive good results from the analytic."
"Ability to pull together multiple sources of information."
"Oracle Advanced Analytics effectively prevents threats and helps maintain a secure network environment."
"When needed, we will work closely with Oracle support and implement their workaround in our application."
"The solution is able to handle quite large amounts of data beautifully."
"It enables statistical modeling of data using Base SAS (another product from the same vendor) as the backbone."
"Good data management and analytics."
"Technical support has been good, and when I called them at the start of using the product with some issues they were very helpful."
"The most valuable feature is the decision tree creation."
"Performance is excellent."
"SAS internal support is very qualified and if we have any issues, we contact them and trust that they can help."
"I found the ease of use of the solution the most valuable. Additionally, other valuable features include: the user interface, power to extract data, compatibility with other technologies (specifically with PS400), and automation of several tasks."
 

Cons

"Problems in handling huge data sets."
"Basic capabilities, less professional than would be expected from a company dealing with databases as a core business."
"Could use some refinement getting things that are not standard cloud applications, but more customized."
"One area for product improvement is the user experience, particularly when navigating through screens."
"The performance, scalability and queries should be addressed, as well as the data distribution of certain data techniques."
"Since a separate Oracle database is needed, the data loading and cleansing the raw data can be a time consuming process."
"It is not a really easy product to use, so you have to do a lot of configuration."
"There are some transactions we have not been able to find through the dashboard."
"The license is really expensive. This solution is for large corporations because not everybody can afford it."
"The solution needs an easier interface for the user. The user experience isn't so easy for our clients."
"Technical support could be improved."
"The solution is very stable, but we do have some problems with discrepancies involving SAS not matching with the latest Java versions. It's not stable in cases where SAS tries to run on a different version because SAS doesn't connect with the latest Java update. Once a month we need to restart systems from scratch."
"Virtualization could be much better."
"We really don't like the protocols the solution offers. The solution is much more complex than other options."
"The initial setup is challenging if doing it for the first time."
"The preparation of both the mining and modeling process could be improved. The solution requires data and will reflect data, but the preparation of the data is not useful for end-users; we ended up having to do the preparation in another tool."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is priced well."
"The solution is expensive for an individual, but for an enterprise/institution (purchasing bulk licenses), it is not a high price for the use that will come from it."
"This solution is for large corporations because not everybody can afford it."
"The solution must improve its licensing models."
