Featured Reviews

Mohd Farhan - PeerSpot reviewer
Has seamless data filtering and visualization for client satisfaction
One area for improvement is the cost, as it's a bit expensive. The caching mechanism also charges too much if I need to cache any data. Sometimes it takes time to display data, suggesting a need for enhancement in data visualization speed. Additionally, the role-level security is challenging to implement, and it could be improved to allow access control per department more easily.
Enrique Pacheco Salinas - PeerSpot reviewer
Advanced analytics facilitate strategy development but demand specialized expertise and better support
Oracle Analytics Cloud is not very user-friendly, however, it is robust and capable of performing a wide range of tasks. However, skilled personnel are needed to operate it effectively due to its complexity. In addition, the brand name carries significant value as many large companies and banks are familiar with Oracle.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It helped the managers to visualize the data activities."
"A valuable feature of Amazon QuickSight is that it's a cloud-native service provided by AWS. As all platforms within my company run on AWS, that's the leverage of Amazon QuickSight. Amazon QuickSight is also easy to use, and I find the native connectors from AWS valuable as well."
"Easily able to connect with our other services and easy to manage."
"Amazon QuickSight can provide insights from the available data. It supports various rule types. We get the options of machine learning and insights, which are not available in other intelligence tools. It is easier to use, more stable, and cheaper than other solutions."
"It works well with the AWS ecosystem."
"From an analytics perspective, it's really good for self-service analytics."
"QuickSight makes it easy to provision, create, and publish dashboards."
"The ease with which it integrates with different data sources is most valuable. Especially when everything is on AWS, it is easy to connect to the data source and organize different dashboards."
"It plays a crucial role in facilitating decision-making for various organizational stakeholders."
"The best feature may be data flow, which is used to prepare and clean data."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's most valuable feature is its visualization."
"It's robust. It has the ability to handle massive amounts. After reporting has been developed, there is an ease of use or a user-friendly interface for a trained workforce."
"The scalability is acknowledged as pretty good, although my evaluation is limited because I used the tool for a short period."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is not very user-friendly, however, it is robust and capable of performing a wide range of tasks."
"The technical support is excellent, and they respond quickly."
"The features that I find to be the most valuable are the BAS (Business Analytics), the Narrate feature, and the auto-visualization."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement is the cost, as it's a bit expensive."
"The product is quite expensive because the price is too close to QlikView's prices but it does not ring as well as QlikView."
"You can't tell a data story as well in QuickSight as you can on others, especially in TIBCO Spotfire."
"It can be made more user-friendly as some users might find this solution hard to implement. Qlik Sense, for example, is very user-friendly."
"The cost of queries is very high."
"The solution must be more user-friendly."
"The setup process falls somewhere in the middle. It is not straightforward, nor is it complex, but there is a significant amount of work needed on the back end to make it function."
"There should be better connectors for different data sets."
"The product could benefit from increased flexibility compared to other vendors."
"The learning curve should be improved, and I'm uncertain if tutorials are readily available or easily accessible. We may have resorted to looking on YouTube for such information. Having easily understandable documents or guides for new users would be beneficial. AI integration would be an interesting feature to add in the next release."
"Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
"Its FAW feature has limitations in terms of usage."
"It should simplify data connectivity and modeling, making data extraction more streamlined and adaptable for diverse use cases."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."
"One of the major issues is that Oracle Analytics Cloud is not user-friendly, requiring skilled people with proper certifications to work with it successfully."
"One area of improvement is associated with more connectors needing to be added such as Microsoft OneDrive, Teradata and a few others. I think the list is limited to the top ones now."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I wouldn't say that it is an expensive product, but to stay competitive they would need to bring down the prices."
