Find out what your peers are saying about Anaplan, Oracle, Jedox and others in Business Performance Management."The ETL itself was pretty useful and it's integrated in the tenant itself. So the Olap service technology was impressive to me. In order to extract that and load it in the tube in the same tenant or the same tool that was something magnificent because I actually missed this in SEB. SEB requires another tool, and you have to integrate all the tools together. But for Jedox, it was in the one tool."
"The ease of reporting is one of Jedox's most valuable features."
"We use the tool for performance management and planning."
"The data entry point is most valuable. The way we can customize our report or do data entry is very good."
"The solution is quick with analysis and calculation. The tool offers high digitalization which helps us to run the controlling department with less number of people. If the software wasn't there, I would need two to three people extra to run the department."
"We can configure and have complete freedom while creating solutions."
"The customer porting is the most valuable feature."
"The EPM is the most valuable feature."
"Essbase is extremely stable and low-maintenance."
"Unlike relational, where you're linking together multiple tables, with Essbase, you basically define what the dimensions are beforehand, and you define the hierarchy, and then load the data. This allows you to do a pretty sophisticated analysis so that you can drill into it and slice and dice the data."
"It is highly efficient and easily scalable, particularly for handling large databases."
"The solution can handle a large volume of data."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"I have found the most valuable aspect is the user-friendly environment and current features."
"The solution is scalable."
"It helps us fetch specific data sets per users' requirements."
"There is not much training for Jedox."
"I think it's the design of the report because the design and the UI for the report is standard and lame. When you see a Jedox report, it doesn't seem like it's from today, because the technology is something from the last decade. The scalability needs improvement."
"Online pixel-perfect reporting is an aspect that has room for improvement."
"I don't find it particularly user-friendly."
"Jedox should improve the design and server issues."
"The tool has changed its pricing and it's now too expensive for small and medium organizations. I miss the open-source version which was free and we could do a lot of things with it."
"From a development perspective, there's room for improvement in the area called the designer, where you actually build your reports to make it easier to manage the process."
"More emphasis is needed on the availability of the learning aspect of the solution. Because unless you take up their course that enables you to be an expert in creating the report, you must seek help."
"I would like to see an integration with application performance management and a version control management tool."
"It's an expensive product to use."
"The ability to drive external reporting out for development could be improved."
"Essbase has a programming language, and it has a couple of functions to do forecasting, however, their feature set for that is not that good."
"The initial setup could be simplified."
"There is room for improvement in terms of cost-effectiveness."
"The initial setup is pretty complex."
"They should improve the solution's performance."
