This is a bit costly product as we have to purchase it per user basis, however quality always comes with cost only.

Power visual analytics for the entire organization. Users could develop their own reports, dashboards instead of relying on IT. Actionable business intelligence. Boardroom ready reports. Able to generate and analyze financial statements.
Oracle Business Intelligence is available in both on premise and cloud. It comes with in built adaptors for easy integration with various Enterprise products like SAP. It is tightly integrated with Oracle's products like Oracle EBusiness Suite, Peoplesoft, JD Edwards, Oracle Fusion Products, Hyperion etc. For faster time to value, one can purchase Oracle Business Intelligence Applications which comes...
Oracle has to improve on customer service. A service request with oracle may take long time to get resolved. Integration of the customers in house products with the oracle dataware house may be a challenge.

Ooracle Business Intelligence meets the business needs in terms of providing the ERP data, however there are lots of confusing issues connected with OBIEE.
The most important for the business is to have quick access to OBIEE reports. With a few clicks the users might use the predefined reports and set the required filters per their needs - that's working without issues.
Business teams report constant issues and bugs to OBIEE. Reports not populating the actual data from Oracle and the reporting interface doesn't have the best user experience. Tableau or Power BI have way better analytics possibilities.

Love this product and would recommend it to other companies.
This was a brand new program introduced to my company. I loved how easy it was to learn to navigate around. It also has a endless amount of possibilites on for what it is capable of. The service desk was also amazing. They had quick response times and if they were unable to answer my question they found someone who could!
The software can be very pricey but in my opinion the ability the system has far out weighs the price of it.

Excellent reporting capabilities and polished data visualization.
The interface is easy to use and reports are very easy to schedule. The variety and quality of data visualization options add fantastic value for an already great product.
Vendor patches necessitated Java updates more often than I would expect out of the product. There were a few browser compatibility issues (though Internet Explorer worked fine).

Easy integration with other oracle prodcuts.
Integration with all oracle solution, besides of the complete visual components for creating business dashboards for my organization
I can't have more than one RPD as Business Area for creating my analysis. I must to modify my RPD in BI administration tool and then, load it again. It's a bit confusing for me (compared with other solutions in market)

Oracle BI has many features and functionality which allow to create a wide reporting starting from many data source.
The architecture is very farraginous, the customer support is very poor, costs of licence and implementation are very expensive. In my OBI is a step backwards compared to other players

Hyperion, although not a great interface, is very easy to learn and use. Typically it serves a specific purpose for users so you don't have to remember too many functions.
The interface looks outdated which therefore makes a page with many reports look disorganized/overwhelming to new users.

Just an easy way for users to get introduced to SQL and building queries. Very powerful for regular repeated processes that need to be run and reviewed by business users, especially ones who don't actually have SQL experiences. Only complaint is it seems that Oracle has abandoned really supporting it and promoting it as a product. Haven't seen a meaningful update in years.
Easy to use and powerful.
Needs 64-bit support--no major updates in years. Oracle just bought it and kept it steady state.

I would recommend this system for businesses specializing in data analytics. However, I wish the interface was simpler looking, and I wish the system looked more modern.
The functionality of this software is unparalleled - it is very easy to keep data organized here through the system of folders.
This software is seriously lacking in visual appeal. When compared to similar systems, this one has the functionality of a modern one, but the look and feel of one that is ten years old. I wish the interface looked more modern and minimalistic - it is currently incredibly cluttered and at times hard to navigate.

oracle OBIEE is very powerful and robust business intelligence tool, which everyone can try and check it.
Oracle BI has very good and robust dashboards. you can easily customize your dash board requirements.you can easily learn and build reports. very good training material available and customer support is awesome.easily report can be scheduled for batch processing.
Not really big negative sides about Oracle BI, but it has lot of options and tools which makes little complex user interface.

The software does what it needs to do and helps me easily pull film-showing stats for my reports. I just wish it could load faster. Maybe one day!
My company uses this software to track statistics of specific film showings in particular languages. It tracks plays from our app and online views of our films. It's accurate and up to date when I pull stats during the week.
My only complaint is that the platform is a bit on the slow side. When I pull stats for my reports some weeks, I find myself waiting a while and having to come back a little later to see if it loaded.

We are able to charge fairly rates to our customers. They are happy with the reporting. We can plan better and monitor better our business.
One version of truth . Share the same information trough the company is the key to start productive meetings.
It´s sometimes hard to add new information to the models. Sometimes the changes require too much IT work (building cubes). Data Visualization solve those problems partially.

Having the option to design and modify report layouts as needed has been a good experience
It has always seemed fantastic to be able to easily model management and control reports, without depending on a technical team to do them.
maybe the need to have a good internet speed so that the reports can be generated efficiently and avoid delays

Because my organization stores data in other Oracle products, it made pulling our information into the queries very simple. Not much data manipulation was required.
Some queries can take long to run and do not come out in a very user friendly manner.

The benefit is the help in extracting information from the company for strategic purposes.
With the implementation of Oracle BI the company data can be used to obtain a competitive advantage, thanks to the extraction algorithms that apply to the database. In addition to the above, this tool offers us the power of the real information of the company and gives the opportunity to react more quickly to market changes.
It only offers open integration with the rest of the product portfolio of the ORACLE company. The cost of the investment is high, however the business tool is so efficient that the return on investment will be quick thanks to the many benefits it offers.

Has been around for ages so easy to find consultants to implement and maintain
At least 10 years behind it's more modern end-user focussed competitors like Tableau.

the facility to compose the data to obtain a very informative report, with the required information on it.
the posibility to agregate a lot of data in a single query which let you to make a report with key information, with the posibility to format that data and show them as in tables and graffics
Uploading data to the cloud can be slow and space is limited at 40Gigs. It' s not easy to configure the report.

We use Oracle BI for making sense of huge amounts of dates that guides our business strategy and helps decide where to allocate resources.
It integrates well with enterprise software such as SAP and delivers multiple dashboards and reports that help managers make informed decisions.
Once the dashboard is created, there is limited functionality for an end user to change the input parameters.

I started using Hyperion the first time as a new employee. I was given minimal training but was able to perform my task with no problem. All tables are functional and efficient to use. My reports generate fast and are easy to be reviewed and approved.
Detailed reports are easily saved for future running.
Sometimes report doesn't print correctly.

Great for transactional reporting with oracle database for oracle EBS Applications, easy to maintain the software
Tools for admin, desktop and viewer for end users, faster to pull big reports and can be scheduled to run in off hours
End of life .. no support
