Powerful BI tool for analyzing financial performance and stable performance
I would rate the scalability of Jedox a seven out of ten. There is room for improvement in the scalability. It is a very massive tool. It's not easy to just build everything yourself. So that's where the main improvements lie—making it easy for people to not depend on just technical finance teams. There are almost 50 to 60 users using Jedox in our organization.

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

"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 main strength of Jedox lies in mastering the navigation, especially the Excel add-in."
"The data entry point is most valuable. The way we can customize our report or do data entry is very good."
"The ETL function simplifies many tasks."
"We use the tool for performance management and planning."
"The EPM is the most valuable feature."
"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."
"The system is quite flexible. Based on our requirements, we create different cubes that can help us to do complete planning."
"Beneficial analysis and easy to do management adjustments."
"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."
"Once you do the budget in Oracle ERP, you can upload it, but it's easier to create and manage budgets in the Oracle budgeting tool itself. For example, if you have a shortfall in the budget, it's easier to manage that and the forms, too, especially if you also have Oracle Forms Management. You can get the forms from somewhere and then transform those forms into budget heads."
"From a standardized input perspective, we’re very happy with it."
"The product has a direct plugin to Microsoft Excel."
"The most valuable feature is the data integration in Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud."
"I value Oracle's flexibility and customization levels."
"The customization level is excellent."
 

Cons

"Jedox should improve the design and server issues."
"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 don't find it particularly user-friendly."
"Online pixel-perfect reporting is an aspect that has room for improvement."
"There is not much training for Jedox."
"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."
"Visualization is something they need to improve. We have already told them about this, and they should be working on 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."
"Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud could improve by creating a more visual and user-friendly interface similar to the old ABC analytics."
"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."
"OCI can predict changes in your infrastructure in advance so that customers aren't caught off guard. It would be nice if OCI could predict these changes and notify Administrators without the Administrators asking OCI to do it."
"It could be more friendly with Excel."
"There is middleware that we need to purchase for our use case that should be provided in Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud. We should not have to purchase the additional solution and the integration should be seamless."
"It would be nice to have better performance."
"Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud could improve. There are times when the forms are slow in saving and calculating."
"The tool's interface is outdated. However, OneStream is easier to navigate."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product’s pricing will not be suitable for setting up a small solution."
"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."
"The solution's pricing is specific to your requirements."
"Jedox was a bit cheaper compared to Calumo."
"Excellent value for money."
"We paid a one-time fee, which included product purchase, licensing, and first-time implementation. We are paying for the maintenance regularly."
"The price of Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud is expensive. However, it solves a lot of issues at the company. Having a better price could make us think about using more cloud products for Oracle and increase usage."
"It is expensive."
"The solution is free."
"There is an annual subscription for this solution and it is priced high."
