Thanh_Nguyen - PeerSpot reviewer
Solution Consultant at IERP JSC
Has supported effective budget planning but needs better data management and performance improvements
The problem with Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud is that they use Essbase, causing the volume of data to increase rapidly. My customer has been using it for five years, and the database has increased to two or three terabytes, which is too big. Oracle has a limit on the database for each customer, notifying that the maximum is only three terabytes, requiring me to back it up elsewhere. The use of Essbase results in rapid database growth, which is an issue I think Oracle needs to improve. While the functions in Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud are good, when I create formulas in the dimensions and refresh the data after making new dimensions, elements, or formulas, it takes a long time. I think this performance issue might be due to the large dataset, but since the system is on the cloud, the performance is still poor.

Consolidation has become consistent and automated and now delivers accurate monthly group results
The best features SAP Business Planning and Consolidation offers include the ability to see all the entities adding up to these numbers at a click of a button, which avoids manual intervention, with all eliminations automated and each intercompany GL connected, ensuring posting in both sets of books of accounts, resulting in a completed balance sheet with no variances. Out of those features, the IC eliminations and the simultaneous accounting in both books of accounts, along with the drill down of the numbers to the possible T-Code level and the consolidation of all the subsidiaries, has had the biggest impact for me.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud has impacted my organization by making everything clearer and more centralized."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"Purchasing this product indeed is a value addition; it's not going to be a bomb, it's not going to add any kind of liability, and it will have quite a positive impact on a company."
"If you go in with that mindset and resource it properly, it's genuinely transformative for a finance function."
"The solution offers well-integrated and dynamic platforms for all disciplines of enterprise performance management."
"Technical support is okay, and I find the technical support from Oracle to be good."
"The best features of Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud are that it is customizable, allowing me to filter it really well to know exactly what I want."
"After switching to SAP Business Planning and Consolidation, we have achieved specific outcomes such as reduced manual intervention, which led to reduced errors, time saved, and increased confidence in the numbers that we presented."
"Up to the implementation of the application, it used to take weeks to the consolidation team to carry out the entire, monthly, financial consolidation, now it takes them just one or two days to perform the entire process."
 

Cons

"Using Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud has changed how my team works together and collaborates, though sometimes the interface feels unintuitive."
"Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud is definitely pretty old school and not as intuitive or user-friendly."
"On the cloud, additional security is required."
"The customer support for Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud has been somewhat inconsistent. For critical issues, the response is reasonably fast; however, for more complex configuration questions, we often get passed around before finding someone who really understands the product deeply."
"The problem with Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud is that they use Essbase, causing the volume of data to increase rapidly."
"Integration of AI, IoT, and RPA-based automation and prediction features with the solution will be a great plus. Oracle is continuously investing efforts in this direction and new features are being released on a continuous basis."
"There are no tutorials or wizards inside the tool, and I think they would be very useful sometimes."
"SAP Business Planning and Consolidation can be improved by implementing further checks on the T-Codes to make them much more user-friendly."
