Automation of financial processes streamlines operations but pricing needs improvement
Our clients mostly use Hyperion for their financial requirements, including budgeting, forecasting, and planning The feature that allows automation of the budgeting and forecasting process is extremely valuable, especially when compared to Excel. The workflow management of planning and the…
Gopinath Bandekar - PeerSpot reviewer
A stable cloud-based solution that allows optimization in addition to process discovery and analysis
When the process models are transferred back to the design environment for further optimization and simulations, we need to see some improvements in the way the models get created in the design. It is very limited because of the transactional data. It seamlessly creates the BPML as well, but it would be easier if the other model, the EPC, were also created simultaneously.

Pros

"We have found there is excellent stability with Oracle Hyperion."
"The roll-up potential of the product is very good, meaning we have detailed information and we want it to be summarized, based on geography, based on different product lines, or based on different charts of accounts in the general ledger. It rolls up the information in a very concise way. This makes it easy to understand the overall performance, for it's forecasting aspects, or quarterly reporting, year to year, or month to month reporting."
"It's very easy to use and the functionality is quite complete."
"The tool is very scalable and powerful. It helps us with financial reporting and performance reporting. It is a very good tool for consolidation and budgeting. We are dependent on it for reporting."
"I rate the overall solution nine out of ten."
"It's a very good program and it's useful for consolidation."
"Hyperion is helpful for all our budget processes."
"Oracle has an integrated solution for Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) and Hyperion. It keeps the two platforms opened up to each other."
"I have found Software AG ARIS Process Mining scalable."
"One feature I found really cool was the Conformance Engine."
"It is a stable solution...I rate the technical support a ten out of ten...On a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy, I rate the setup a nine."
"It is very easy to work on the way the ETL happens in ARIS Process Mining."
"The interface is simplified and easy to use."
 

Cons

"They could support machine learning algorithms for the product."
"All the planning systems out there are great. It doesn't matter which company you use. They're all great. I've seen demonstrations on a number of them, but it all boils down to the culture within the organization itself to use that functionality, understand it, and help drive it. I've had Oracle salespeople do demonstrations, and it looked really good. We get it on board, and everybody still sticks to their Excel spreadsheets because companies are a lot more complex than what you could deliver on the planning system. So, there should be more education on the capabilities, and there should be more understanding of organizations in terms of the way they access the data in order to plan."
"From a technical perspective, the technical support could be improved and the price could be reduced."
"It is challenging to do reporting on Oracle Hyperion if you're not an expert."
"I found the initial setup to be complex."
"Sometimes Oracle Hyperion is slow when there are a lot of users using it. However, we can have up to approximately 300 users using it."
"What I like is to have everything on one platform and not in different modules like Oracle Hyperion."
"Improvements are needed in the tool's performance."
"There should be a single site for modeling and mining."
"The installation is straightforward, we didn't have any technical issues with installing. However, we needed support to complete the implementation."
"I guess we have many unnecessary steps within our processes. There is room for automation and room for enhancement within our application portfolio management...In short, I would like to eliminate unnecessary steps in some processes in this solution."
"When the process models are transferred back to the design environment for further optimization and simulations, we need to see some improvements in the way the models get created in the design."
"Customizing KPIs and building dashboards were not as intuitive as other similar tools."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It might be considered relatively costly compared to some alternatives."
"Oracle Hyperion's licensing structures are quite expensive for some companies, especially medium-sized companies because of the user-based license."
"We pay for licensing yearly."
"As Oracle's pricing is on the higher end, most businesses prefer to have their own private cloud."
"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."
"Oracle Hyperion is not an inexpensive solution."
"We pay for a license to use this solution."
"The pricing is based on licenses."
"It's highly-priced, so it's not exactly a cheap product...We are getting what we are paying for, so on a scale of one to ten, or one is low, and ten is a high price, I rate the pricing a nine out of ten."
"Looking at the value it gives, ARIS Process Mining's pricing is fair."
