We performed a comparison between MicroStrategy and Oracle Analytics Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Dossiers are going to change the name of the game for us. We want to be able to have the executive committee go into a meeting and tell a story. We want them to tell us a story, not us."
"The convenience of it. Having it on the mobile, so someone has it right there in their pocket most of the time."
"Comprehensive security control and more."
"MicroStrategy's best feature is that it is a user-friendly tool."
"Provides seamless integration between browser-based BI and Mobile BI."
"It is a great tool and has the best offerings for doing data analysis."
"It is one tool which you can find everything. "
"Provides us charts and graphs for reporting."
"This is a stable and scalable solution."
"The specific capability I find important in Oracle Analytics Cloud is that it allows the basic user to easily drag and drop data. I also like that the solution allows the user to decide what to measure and what to see in the reports."
"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 technical support services are good."
"The best feature may be data flow, which is used to prepare and clean data."
"The most valuable features of the solution are dashboarding and data visualization."
"The product is easily customized."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"Needs tighter mapping integration."
"Something I would be interested in is more visualizations, because right now we use SDK to create some. If there were more out-of-the-box options, we would be happy with that."
"It is actually pretty complicated to use. It is complicated enough that user adaptation is sometimes difficult. We developed more experts rather than people using it."
"The solution lacks good visualization. They should work on the user interface to make it more slick and modern."
"They should give proper industry-based tutorials so that one can learn it easily and implement it based on the requirements. They should give more MMP files so that we can import a whole project altogether and learn from that project."
"If there are some advanced visualization features - maybe I'm not aware of them - but if there were a Vitara which could work on top of MicroStrategy, it would make sense for MicroStrategy to have that within their own library. So they should add more visualizations to the library."
"In the developer, there are things that you able to do in a document or a report that you are not able to do in the Dossier."
"Lacks decent visualization and the process for creating new objects needs to be simplified."
"The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
"They could improve the ease of developing the dashboard and interacting with it."
"When we have, for example, a table with low performance, we have several issues with drawing some graphics in the Oracle cloud."
"Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
"The migration of older dash tools from the classic interface of Oracle BI prior to OAS launch to the newer Data Visualization and Oracle Analytics Cloud interfaces, including dashboards and metadata, is currently a cumbersome process. Improvements in this area would be highly beneficial. Additionally, the administration of the cloud, particularly the startup of services and linking of the WebLogic server and integrated components, takes longer than desired. In today's enterprise landscape, waiting forty minutes for the server to be operational is quite lengthy; ideally, this process should take a maximum of four minutes. It would be excellent to incorporate metadata management as an integral part of the Oracle Analytics Cloud. When dealing with integrated data from various sources, tracking data lineage and the entire data life cycle, from sources to report development and the mapping of reports to specific dashboards, should be seamlessly managed within the Oracle Analytics Cloud. This would eliminate the need for additional tools. Drawing a comparison, tools like Tableau have a feature enabling metadata management, making it easier to trace the complete data lineage of reports. Managing over seven hundred and thirty-six business dashboards, the metadata management capability within Tableau simplified the process of understanding how reports were developed, including details like associated tables, users, linked views, materialized views, data segmentations, ETL jobs, and the data warehouse stages. Enhancing metadata tracking within the Oracle Analytics Cloud layout would facilitate easy and practical management of the complete data life cycle, encompassing user accessibility and report permissions."
"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."
"It should simplify data connectivity and modeling, making data extraction more streamlined and adaptable for diverse use cases."
"This solution could be more adaptable in its application."
