Editor Writing and Editing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "works well but a bit slow" December 21, 2020 5.0 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! Pros 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. Cons 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. Review Source LB Leah B. District Manager Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great to use program, but expensive to initially implement." November 7, 2017 5.0 Pros Their customer support team is wonderful and very accessible. I like the user portal they have that allows you to get tech support but more importantly, allows you to speak with other customers of the software. The training they offer is also really helpful, as is the discount that they offer for training if you bundle it with other offers in a package. Cons It seems to be limited when you try to calculate percentages and rates and the training, while helpful, is definitely more complex (presumably for a more complex system).

March 13, 2018 3.0 Simple list reports and dashboards were easy to create. Data modeling is easy. Pros Rtf template creation, basic data modeling is easy, prompts and cascading prompts are easy to implement Cons It would have been nice if it has inbuilt functions for arithmetic operations, data functions and oracle functions.

Supervisor Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Lots of great info in one area" February 9, 2017 4.0 Oracle is great in the sense that you can drill down and see almost anything you need to. It has the capacity to display a vast variety of information. There are very many filters that sometimes makes the ease of use a little difficult but once you figure that out, youre golden. Pros The accessibility of so much info and the ability to be able to drill down to specifics. You are able to view the data in a variety of ways which fit your needs. Cons Can sometime be difficult with navigation - lots of filters that sometimes make things confusing Review Source SH Sasha H. Business Administrator Higher Education Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Not my preferred data visualization tool" November 29, 2018 3.0 Pros Because my organization stores data in other Oracle products, it made pulling our information into the queries very simple.

Cons I think there are cheaper alternatives for Reporting: SQL Server Reporting Services is a great solution and its cheaper, but if your company is very much into Oracle products I guess it's ok to use this Oracle BI software.

Typically it serves a specific purpose for users so you don't have to remember too many functions. Cons The interface looks outdated which therefore makes a page with many reports look disorganized/overwhelming to new users. Review Source AH Andy H. Used the software for: ### "Enterprise Edition - Try Before You Buy" December 8, 2016 1.0 I am going to be frank here, I hate OBIEE. I've spent hours configuring dashboards. It is very complicated from a user perspective, although you can change almost all the fonts and stuff like that. It's got all the features you want when it comes to some things, but then it doesn't do the most random things you would assume any modern BI platform could do. For instance, searching subsets of data is not easy. Creating / Saving ad hoc filters is impossible unless you create copies of dashboards. This is very much a platform designed for IT people to administer, which is my IT group 'loves' this crap. But from a business user perspective it sucks. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Solutions Architect | BPM/SOA/EAI Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "This is a great BI software" March 31, 2018 5.0 Pros Easy to use for reporting, customizable, easy ot use, interactive designs for reports, high compatibility with other tools Cons It's difficult to learn, I would say you need training to be able to take advantange of it's funtionalities and the price is quite expensive so a small business can't afford it.
