Excellent for budgeting and forecasting, but long-term it will no longer be developed or supported
The fact that in a few years' time it is no longer going to be supported is a big concern. Therefore, I would advise against Hubble. Additionally, I think we underestimated the time for deployment, we thought it would be a few months and it took much longer than expected because the consultants didn't understand our process in detail before committing to the process. On a scale of one to ten, I would give Hubble a seven.

The use of data forms simplifies financial data management and input processes
The best feature of Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud is the possibility to use data forms to input data and allow users to have a template with the data form. For users, it is not necessary to go with a free form to take data or input data. My automotive customer transitioned from Essbase on-premise to Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud specifically for the data forms functionality. This is the main feature that Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud offers compared to the Essbase on-premise solution. Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud offers the possibility to use data forms for viewing and inputting data. This is the easiest way to perform these actions without using free forms.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Being able to create calculations, hierarchies, aging buckets, etc. has reduced the Excel reports we used to have."
"Hubble will truly blow you away once you get to know the product and the people behind it."
"We have saved hours of Excel work producing the same results, which Hubble gives in minutes."
"The most valuable features are both its budgeting and forecasting."
"Reporting was dramatically improved."
"It makes it easy for users to get through and see what they have to do next."
"We're were amazed at the ease Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud was to implement and how good the design was."
"The flexible modeling capabilities of the Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud have helped with optimizing resource allocation."
"One of the most valuable features of Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud is the ability to have budgeting, finance, and management running in a single tool."
"The tool improves the organizational budgeting process in several ways. One significant aspect is the extensionable functionality it offers. To illustrate, consider a scenario where a company has factories in Mexico producing Volkswagen and Kentucky producing Ford."
"The solution automates the planning processes and does it in real-time."
"From a standardized input perspective, we’re very happy with it."
"It gives you an end-to-end solution from integrating data from the source system to reporting. So it's a highly recommended tool."
 

Cons

"When exporting to Excel, it is values only."
"The fact that in a few years' time it is no longer going to be supported is a big concern. Therefore, I would advise against Hubble."
"Exporting to Excel takes a lot of time when broken into sheets/files."
"We have been advised by the owners that the budgeting tool is no longer going to be supported with future development, so my recommendation would be for them to continue to invest in development. Otherwise, at some point we will have to migrate to another technology."
"The only thing I may add is that it can get a little pricey when you add annual maintenance."
"The business rules behind the forms need improvement, and the total processing time should be enhanced with the help of proper commands, specifically regarding the execution time of existing rules."
"It would be nice to have better performance."
"It could be more friendly with Excel."
"For HR, the workforce planning out of the box is complicated. For most users, it's not easy, and it requires a learning curve. It's not very user-friendly. It can be improved."
"One potential improvement would be a more visual workflow, as the current method using a tax list is not as effective."
"The FR recording studio that is used to build reports is clunky and awful to use. This could be improved a lot. The solution does have problems and limitations."
"Oracle initially forced HFM users to migrate to FCCS, which was difficult because moving applications wasn't easy."
"Oracle response time for customer SRs is horrible."
