Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Salesforce, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in BI (Business Intelligence) Tools.
I would say out of all the support experience I've had, only 5% took quite a long time to respond to the support message.
I would say at the moment, so far, good in the sense of Amazon's technical support.
I would rate the technical support from MicroStrategy as nine out of 10.
The tendency to route users to sales personnel with limited technical expertise detracts from the support experience.
MicroStrategy's scalability is good, as it has the possibility to read a lot of data and works fine with all the information that we have.
While Oracle OBIEE is scalable, it is more of a niche product designed to work specifically with Oracle systems.
I would rate the stability of MicroStrategy as nine out of 10.
Understanding how AWS charges for Amazon QuickSight usage is critical for all users wanting to visualize their data effectively.
For example, making automation for filling missing data or reformatting incorrect data formats, and making date corrections.
On the analytics side, we are migrating into Amazon QuickSight. One of the products is already migrating, and the rest is in the pipeline.
Organizations that are well-established and have more money can afford MicroStrategy, but startups and mid-level organizations who do not have this much budget have to opt for other cheaper tools.
I would appreciate improvements in MicroStrategy related to integration or sharing features with Power BI.
MicroStrategy could learn from Power BI's user-friendly interface.
Oracle OBIEE has a steep learning curve compared to tools like SQL Server or Power BI.
I always aim for the star schema in the business model, even if the physical source is normalized. This approach will impact the performance, speed of the data, and accuracy.
It is not expensive, but it is also not cheap.
Oracle OBIEE is quite expensive, especially when compared to Microsoft's solutions.
The interactive dashboards of Amazon QuickSight are very important tools in business intelligence.
The natural language query is very important, and natural language processing is crucial for disseminating dashboards across multiple formats and mechanisms.
Interactive dashboards do help with data analysis.
It's important because with MicroStrategy we can manage all our cubes and show data to our clients.
The MicroStrategy interface is not as good as Power BI, especially concerning the user-friendly aspects.
The most effective features of MicroStrategy for data analysis in my experience are the security, the metadata management, and the administration, along with the options of different workarounds available to accommodate different types of requirements.
Oracle OBIEE's core strength is its common enterprise information model, which is the RPD, where we implement business logic.
A valuable feature of Oracle OBIEE is its ability to automate some tasks, such as invoice analysis, saving a significant amount of clerical work.

Reviews from Real Users
Sandeep V., Process System Engineer at a comms service provider, tells us, “This solution is very easy for people who are building ad-hoc things. It's an enterprise solution so it can be deployed for a lot of users. There are some great new features that come with the 12c like data visualization, desktop BI Publisher, automation, and interactive dashboards. The product has good features. “
A user who is a CEO at a consultancy relates, “The most valuable feature is the visualization. The data warehousing, data storage, and data wrangling are all features that are in there, and it's one of the better products out there. A good thing is that for large datasets, it's very stable, especially when you have an Oracle database.”
A user who is a Principal Business Intelligence Architect at a computer software company suggests, "It is very biased towards Oracle infrastructure. One of the major red flags we have at the moment against Oracle is that it doesn't support deployment on other cloud providers. We're quite heavily vested in AWS as our infrastructure, and Oracle is yet to formally support deploying on those virtual infrastructure instances. That's quite disappointing, and it also cuts them out of over 70% of the market."
