Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Automated reporting.""We utilize planning on a daily basis, therefore we find it to be the most valuable product for our organization.""Reports are allowed to be edited for aesthetic purposes, which is lacking in a lot of other dashboard tools.""It's very simple to create a new version and do some more modeling based on your need for planning things like headcount, other expenses, and revenue, everything is configurable within Workday.""Changes to corporate structure, account codes are updated in all versions including prior years, hence "one-version of truth" as claimed.""It helps develop a more unified work format throughout the company.""The important feature is integration with source data. It connects to various ERP systems, including Workday, Intact, and others. It can also import actuals and compare them to PlanPoint quite easily.""Forecasting changes that instantly flow through all financial statements."

"This product is very scalable and provides high ROI.""We can integrate with any system and pull data from SAP or SQL Server. We can also design our own role files to establish how we pull the file data and store it in our database.""We like the reporting and tracking of financials.""Oracle has an integrated solution for Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) and Hyperion. It keeps the two platforms opened up to each other.""The scalability is good.""The most valuable features are those associated with modules and SP, IT in this space, planning, HFM, and PME.""Oracle Hyperion is fairly user-friendly and not too complicated. The forecasting, it's really good. It's sometimes slow when there are a lot of users using it and we can have up to approximately 300 users using it. However, you can do it in Excel because there's an Excel add-in. This is a benefit because a lot of people do this way instead of having to go into the planning application itself.""Scalability isn't a problem for Hyperion."

Cons
"Better user interface (UI).""Adaptive Insights has a limit of 1,00,000 rows for HTML reports. It should be improved because we will have multiple dimensions that need to be populated to enhance the image.""Their customer support team is slow to respond and not extremely confident.""The integrations could be simpler. It takes quite a bit of internal and IT know-how to set up.""The product's configuration process could be faster.""Users continue to become more advanced and are looking for more advanced solutions.""Being able to drill down when using OfficeConnect needs work.""It's a Workday product; they could do a little bit better to integrate a pure-play integration with Workday, which really doesn't do that."

More Adaptive Insights Cons →

"There can be an improvement in many regards with the dimensions, the metadata, the interfaces, as well as the integration.""The forecasting of values could be simplified in this solution.""The reporting feature in Oracle Hyperion isn't the best. It needs improvement.""Hyperion has much room for improvement, especially disaster recovery. You don't have the option to choose the proper disaster recovery method. We have Hyperion and an SQL server on the backend. We have active solutions for the backend database server, which aren't working for our people. They've asked us to remove the high availability to increase application performance.""Oracle Hyperion's scalability could be improved.""There's something known as a data block that Hyperion generates for each and every transaction. Sometimes it does not generate and we need to identify those issues and fix them manually.""The analytical side of the product could be better and needs to be improved.""Oracle EPM Cloud solutions have simplified the security model. Nevertheless, it would be better having a more differentiated security model."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Everything is negotiable, but this solution is low cost compared to others."
  • "Licensing seems to be worth the cost considering the efficiency Adaptive brings."
  • "Prior to purchasing licenses, make sure you understand which users will only need planning and which users will need both planning and OfficeConnect."
  • "Ensure that you have the proper pricing plan in place."
  • "Adaptive Insights' pricing is reasonable."
  • "Pricing is in line with other cloud-based EPM tools. It is a subscription-based model based upon the number of users and site type if it's an admin or end-user type thing."
  • "Adaptive Insights' pricing is relative to its peer competitors. It's certainly competitive compared to a spreadsheet template that you build in Excel. It can be expensive if you need to have 100-500 budget holders giving input and building financial plans. However, in that case, it becomes an extremely good bargain. Compared to its competitors, it offers an excellent value."
  • "It's affordable."
  • More Adaptive Insights Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "As Oracle's pricing is on the higher end, most businesses prefer to have their own private cloud."
  • "Compared with MSBA, it is quite reasonable."
  • "To get a full license, which gives you access to most of the different Hyperion programs, it costs $2000 to $2500 a month."
  • "We pay for licensing yearly."
  • "Oracle Hyperion is not an inexpensive solution."
  • "The licenses cost approximately $1,000."
  • "The solution is affordable."
  • "Oracle Hyperion's licensing structures are quite expensive for some companies, especially medium-sized companies because of the user-based license."
