The solution provides dynamic reports while being easy to use
There is not much training for Jedox. There was no training available in the beginning at all. I had to reach out to them so they would give us something. I think they're getting better, though. The other issue is the dependence on the partner network. We used to deal directly with Jedox, but now it is all through partners, and Jedox's representatives are not in the picture anymore. It's not that partners are not doing a good job, but you're not dealing with the company directly since it's a partner most of the time. If you build your know-how within the company, it's good. Otherwise, the dependence on partners could end up being more costly. Suppose you do your development or don't need to develop constantly by starting with a sprint, deciding what you want to do, and setting up the cubes, databases, and everything correctly. In that case, you only need to develop different reports using the same data. However, it could be costly if you constantly need to develop reports or different cubes and store different systems without the in-house know-how.

Empower financial planning with user-friendly and robust features
The best features of Oracle Hyperion revolve around their cloud-based technology, which is gradually moving to cloud solutions such as EPMCSG, while Anaplan uses two engines for calculations, the classic engine and the Essbase engine. Anaplan allows for quick module changes, where adjustments in one module reflect throughout the user experience. In contrast, Oracle Hyperion relies on Essbase as a database with calculation scripts and business rules, and it incorporates Smart View technology for Excel connections, providing a familiar interface for users. Oracle Hyperion is fundamentally a good technology and does not require significant improvements compared to other technologies because it is user-friendly and offers several advantages in financial reporting and consolidation. However, I have observed that Anaplan has built-in UX pages for report preparation, unlike Oracle Hyperion, which often relies on third-party tools such as Hyperion Financial Reporting and Power BI for reporting.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The ETL function simplifies many tasks."
"The Excel interface is designed to retrieve data from the database and send it back, which is a significant advantage."
"We use the tool for performance management and planning."
"We can configure and have complete freedom while creating solutions."
"The system is quite flexible. Based on our requirements, we create different cubes that can help us to do complete planning."
"The main strength of Jedox lies in mastering the navigation, especially the Excel add-in."
"The ease of reporting is one of Jedox's most valuable features."
"With Jedox, those kinds of pain points have been removed, and now if I create my dashboard once, people just need to add the data or pull the data, or the data just comes in on a scheduled basis from various systems, and my dashboards are ready."
"My primary use case of this solution is as a full EPM shop, with HFM, planning and FDMEE reports, as well as all the features available under the EPM umbrella."
"The tool does all our budgeting and forecasting without much manual work, so it's now all automated, saving us both time and from many human errors."
"It is a multi user web based system, which is easier for us to deploy since we have a global presence."
"Reduced budgeting process from six to eight months, to three months."
"It is easy to use. It is very intuitive. Even though there is a lot of functionality that comes out of the box, you can customize the solutions to meet your needs. You have the ability to have business rules that produce all kinds of calculations. We're international, and we do all our FX conversions through that."
"Scalability isn't a problem for Hyperion."
"The platform is very easy to use from a user perspective, especially for nontechnical experts."
"The ROI is high, and I think they provide a lot of value."
 

Cons

"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."
"There is not much training for Jedox."
"It is also not that easy as an implementation piece. It takes time to convert the business requirement into the proper solutions in the tool, which is time-consuming."
"Visualization is something they need to improve. There should be some dropdown facilities in it like Excel."
"The solution needs to improve its support. The visualization in Microsoft BI is more modern and comfortable than Jedox's. I would expect something similar with the solution."
"There is room for improvement in the scalability. It is a very massive tool. It's not easy to just build everything yourself."
"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 technical perspective, the technical support could be improved and the price could be reduced."
"They could support machine learning algorithms for the product."
"Occasionally, though, we get issues such as process hangs or something similar, although they're usually known bugs the fixes for which we can find in Oracle support fairly easily."
"The solution is about to cease to exist, so it doesn't really matter if they add anything to it. It's at end-of-life."
"There should be more effort put into integration processes."
"Most of the time it takes three months and you don’t get results."
"Integrating Oracle Hyperion, a multidimensional database, with relational databases poses challenges due to the differing database structures."
"This solution's stability is a little problematic."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product’s pricing will not be suitable for setting up a small solution."
"Excellent value for money."
"The solution's pricing is specific to your requirements."
"We paid a one-time fee, which included product purchase, licensing, and first-time implementation. We are paying for the maintenance regularly."
"If you are using SAP, then you will have to take an SAP Connector license. The license across the tool is paying for the people who are using it as an admin or as a normal user. They can work out those costs in a manner that can help. This can also be a point of improvement where they can work out the costing, and the developers have a specific licensing cost. The normal users, who are going to do probably data entry or just going to view the dashboard, can have a separate license cost."
"Jedox was a bit cheaper compared to Calumo."
"Compared with MSBA, it is quite reasonable."
"The licenses cost approximately $1,000."
"To get a full license, which gives you access to most of the different Hyperion programs, it costs $2000 to $2500 a month."
"The solution is affordable."
"We pay for licensing yearly."
"Oracle Hyperion is not an inexpensive solution."
"The licensing cost for the on-premises version of the solution is too high."
"As Oracle's pricing is on the higher end, most businesses prefer to have their own private cloud."
