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.

You can use the process mapping module to build processes that can be converted into SOPs. Licensing is unreasonable.
The process-mapping module helped the BPR team in creating detailed process maps quickly. The process converter tool helped the team establish baseline SOPs that can be taken further to implement comprehensive documentation that serves the departments’ needs. The content management part helped in sharing the processes safely with the rest of the organization.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"The fact that Hyperion is a consistent system without any big issues is huge for our users to make decisions based on financial results."
"Hyperion is one of the best tools in the world; we can do planning and forecasting, store and draw large amounts of data in multiple combinations, integrate with any system to pull data from SAP or SQL Server, and design our own role files to control how we pull file data and store it in our database."
"We are satisfied with this solution and I would recommend Oracle to others."
"This solution provides a more structured methodology for doing analysis than a tool like Excel, creating a central database that keeps all information in one place and allowing 200 spreadsheets to be replaced by one multidimensional repository."
"I would always recommend this solution; it is very versatile, it is easy to use, easy to access, and easy to set up."
"The tool is very scalable and powerful. It helps us with financial reporting and performance reporting. It is a very good tool for consolidation and budgeting. We are dependent on it for reporting."
"For businesses, the ability to create forecasts in a fraction of time it took before the implementation is the most valuable feature."
"The product has so many features, but it has some unique ones that most of the similar products do not have."
"The process mapping module is highly user friendly and allows users to quickly build processes with thorough details that can be converted into comprehensive end-to-end SOPs."
"The new QPR Suite 2014 including QPR EnterpriseArchitect, QPR ProcessDesigner, QPR Metrics and QPR ProcessAnalyzer delivers the right capabilities for business management and enterprise architects to support operational development and business transformation cases."
 

Cons

"The learning curve is pretty steep."
"It's not scalable. It's not scalable. We are moving away from it, with the ERP cloud migration, we will retire this product."
"I found the initial setup to be complex."
"We have had a little difficulty with financial reports being buggy in the client."
"Their documentation could be a little bit more descriptive at places. They don't really do a lot of How-Tos because that gets pushed through to the consulting groups. There have been some books. There is a real good one out there about how to look smarter than you are with Hyperion Planning that some people at a company called ArganoInterRel wrote. Those things do exist, but that's not in their documentation. It's basically like they'll say, "This is the field. This is what it's used for," but they don't tell you how to particularly use it in your case environment."
"Oracle EPM Cloud solutions have simplified the security model. Nevertheless, it would be better having a more differentiated security model."
"Integrating Oracle Hyperion, a multidimensional database, with relational databases poses challenges due to the differing database structures."
"What I like is to have everything on one platform and not in different modules like Oracle Hyperion."
"There should be an easier way of reporting, or producing, reports in MS Office."
"The QPR content management module is highly complex and difficult to use."
"Mobile features need to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared with MSBA, it is quite reasonable."
"It might be considered relatively costly compared to some alternatives."
"The licensing cost for the on-premises version of the solution is too high."
"Oracle Hyperion's licensing structures are quite expensive for some companies, especially medium-sized companies because of the user-based license."
"To get a full license, which gives you access to most of the different Hyperion programs, it costs $2000 to $2500 a month."
"As Oracle's pricing is on the higher end, most businesses prefer to have their own private cloud."
"Oracle Hyperion is not an inexpensive solution."
"The solution is affordable."
