Pros

  • Enginatics is extreemly responsive to suggestions for enhancements. DeKalb's use of Blitz is so great that our migration to the cloud is dependent on the availability of Blitz.

  • Overall the switch to using Blitz reports has been a huge benefit for our company, with every functional area having benefitted from this product.

Cons

  • FYI Enginatics sent me thier WORD version of the User guide and all I needed to do is cut out the sections I did not want to use for the END USER.

  • Lack of FA reports , but these will come with time.

"As good as I had hoped"

Overall: When I first tried Blitz I was amazed at how much faster I could extract the same amount of information, as the same account information in Blitz could be extracted 4 to 5 times as fast as a GL wand drill down. I was also excited to find out how easy it is to set the reports up to publish directly to a network drive, making it very easy to schedule recurring reports and then combining them using Power BI into easy to use dashboards. After making the decision to switch to Blitz reports based on the superior functionality for financial reporting, our functional users started using the available reports for other Oracle modules. This ended up being the biggest benefit for our company as our users were finally able to get Oracle reports that were easy to read and analyze. This also expanded our use of Power BI dashboards given the ease of publishing the Excel files directly to a network folder in a ready to use format. Overall the switch to using Blitz reports has been a huge benefit for our company, with every functional area having benefitted from this product.

Pros: When I first tried Blitz I was amazed at how much faster I could extract the same amount of information, as the same account information in Blitz could be extracted 4 to 5 times as fast as a GL wand drill down. I was also excited to find out how easy it is to set the reports up to publish directly to a network drive, making it very easy to schedule recurring reports and then combining them using Power BI into easy to use dashboards.

Cons: This product was much easier to install and integrate than our previous product, so no cons to report.

Reasons for Choosing Blitz Report: Superior speed and functionality, including the ability to write and export reports from more than just the GL module.
Reasons for Switching to Blitz Report: GL Wand did not have a product that worked with our 32 bit Java on our old ERP version and we were having to retire the Citrix farm that was previously used to work around that issue.

"Blitz Report - a no brainer for your organization"

Overall: Enginatics is extreemly responsive to suggestions for enhancements! DeKalb's use of Blitz is so great that our migration to the cloud is dependent on the availability of Blitz. I see no reason why a company would not take advantage of the free download and just give Blitz a test run. My money is on you purchase it!!

Pros: First of all the cost of this product is so inexpensive I could order it with my level of buying authority! Second the ease of use! Within 2 hours of installing Blitz I was up creating documents. The security of Blitz is regular Oracle Applications security. The community of Blitz Users have produced many reports that are available for download for FREE. Blitz has more functionality than just reporting, albeit I do not utilize its capabilities.

Cons: I have zero complaints about Blitz. This survey is making me enter a complain...sooooo let's go with not a separate manual for the end end user that shows only how to run the report. FYI Enginatics sent me thier WORD version of the User guide and all I needed to do is cut out the sections I did not want to use for the END USER.

Reasons for Switching to Blitz Report: We needed a simple solution that allowed creation of reports into Excel that did not cost an arm and a leg!

"Great Report-Writing Tool"

Pros: As a developer of reports for our company, Blitz has been super-easy to use. There are no issues with connections because it is entirely integrated into Oracle. It comes with beaucoup seeded reports that can be used as-is or as a starting-point to build more customized versions. When support is needed, they have always been extremely quick to respond. They are eager to build recommendations into the standard functionality, as they can visualize how other customers can use the functionality as well.

Cons: New versions are being released regularly, so there are new features available upon upgrading, but this does require our DBA to test and install these revisions regularly as well.

Reasons for Switching to Blitz Report: The ability to develop, test, and tweak the SQL in a database management software and then simply copy and paste the script into Blitz makes rollout easier and timelier for us. The DBA is also not required to be involved to make updates or deploy the reports in our Production environment, making processes more streamlined.

"Blitz Report is exactly what we needed!"

Overall: Overall experience has been extremely positive. Customer Service has been amazing. I logged a support ticket late on a Friday and still received a phone call back that same day. It was 11 pm in Switzerland, but that didn't matter! The problem was resolved! The Blitz Team is passionate about their product and it shows.

Pros: We were heavily dependent on Discoverer and needed a tool to fill that gap. We implemented OBIEE, but users still needed operational reporting. The need for large data extracts, into Excel, was always going to be required. We needed a tool to make it easier for people to extract data into a spreadsheet, without having to learn SQL. We really appreciate the catalog and version control capabilities in Blitz. Users can run reports without leaving the Oracle EBS. We don't allow users to modify the queries themselves. Some shops might like that, but we control the queries that run in Production. (We develop in DEV, test in UAT and migrate to PROD. Export/Import makes this it very easy to migrate from one instance to another.)

Cons: There is no down side to this product.

Reasons for Choosing Blitz Report: Ease of implementation! Easy to integrate into current processes. Easy to learn. Did not come with a lot of other tools that we didn't need. We had already implemented the entire OBIEE suite. We didn't want another BI tool. We needed Blitz Report!

"EBS Reporting Performance and Volume"

Overall: The main benefits we have realized is moving our Discoverer reports into Blitz , when we upgraded the Oracle Discoverer tools were discontinued and we used Blitz migration tool to import existing reports and was up and running quickly.

Pros: We started using Blitz years ago to retrieve high volume data quickly. During this process we also learned one time reports or queries run by analyst to support day to day exceptions can be quickly turned into a report so we don't loose those knowledge at the same time security is not compromised.

Cons: They still need to use and know the Oracle EBS functionality and combing other data source e.g HCM have to be done manually on Excel

Reasons for Choosing Blitz Report: Performance is one main reason for selecting Blitz. Ease of deployment and development
