Thanh_Nguyen - PeerSpot reviewer
Solution Consultant at IERP JSC
Has supported effective budget planning but needs better data management and performance improvements
The problem with Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud is that they use Essbase, causing the volume of data to increase rapidly. My customer has been using it for five years, and the database has increased to two or three terabytes, which is too big. Oracle has a limit on the database for each customer, notifying that the maximum is only three terabytes, requiring me to back it up elsewhere. The use of Essbase results in rapid database growth, which is an issue I think Oracle needs to improve. While the functions in Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud are good, when I create formulas in the dimensions and refresh the data after making new dimensions, elements, or formulas, it takes a long time. I think this performance issue might be due to the large dataset, but since the system is on the cloud, the performance is still poor.

Flexible modeling capabilities have optimized resource allocation and collaboration tools aid communication
Some of the best features with the Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud perform better than OneStream. The flexible modeling capabilities of the Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud have helped with optimizing resource allocation. The built-in collaboration tools with the Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud have aided communication among me and my clients as well as the clients and stakeholders. The advanced analytics within the Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud helps with the performance insights on some of these clients.

Pros

"Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud has impacted my organization by making everything clearer and more centralized."
"If you go in with that mindset and resource it properly, it's genuinely transformative for a finance function."
"Purchasing this product indeed is a value addition; it's not going to be a bomb, it's not going to add any kind of liability, and it will have quite a positive impact on a company."
"The best features of Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud are that it is customizable, allowing me to filter it really well to know exactly what I want."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"The solution offers well-integrated and dynamic platforms for all disciplines of enterprise performance management."
"Technical support is okay, and I find the technical support from Oracle to be good."
"They provide tools certified to work on-site, in the cloud, or in a hybrid scenario, and this flexibility is valuable for various business sizes."
"The flexible modeling capabilities of the Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud have helped with optimizing resource allocation."
"We previously used Oracle EDS, and when comparing it to this solution, this solution has a much better interface. There are lots of advantages of the new solutions. Having it on the cloud, we are able to forget about keeping them updated or taking care of the database. We have minimal maintenance."
"We have labor queues and workforce planning as well as our complete budget and focus for different business areas in the company, and it is adding so much value."

"Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud helped save significant time in creating reports for stakeholders and shareholders."

Cons

"Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud is definitely pretty old school and not as intuitive or user-friendly."
"Using Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud has changed how my team works together and collaborates, though sometimes the interface feels unintuitive."
"The problem with Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud is that they use Essbase, causing the volume of data to increase rapidly."
"The customer support for Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud has been somewhat inconsistent. For critical issues, the response is reasonably fast; however, for more complex configuration questions, we often get passed around before finding someone who really understands the product deeply."
"Integration of AI, IoT, and RPA-based automation and prediction features with the solution will be a great plus. Oracle is continuously investing efforts in this direction and new features are being released on a continuous basis."
"On the cloud, additional security is required."
"The Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud can be improved in various ways."
"Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud could improve. There are times when the forms are slow in saving and calculating."
"There is middleware that we need to purchase for our use case that should be provided in Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud. We should not have to purchase the additional solution and the integration should be seamless."
"Oracle made a mistake by forcing HFM users to transition to FCCS before the solution was mature enough."
"Upgrades and patching are a pain in the butt. There are just too many pieces that have to be implemented in the right sequence."
"Tech support has gone down. Initially when it was on-prem, tech support was very sophisticated and knowledgeable."
"The business rules behind the forms need improvement, and the total processing time should be enhanced with the help of proper commands, specifically regarding the execution time of existing rules."
"The tool's interface is outdated. However, OneStream is easier to navigate."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its licensing covers support and maintenance infrastructure as well."
"There is an annual subscription for this solution and it is priced high."
"The solution is free."
"The price of Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud is expensive. However, it solves a lot of issues at the company. Having a better price could make us think about using more cloud products for Oracle and increase usage."
"It is expensive."
