I use it for consolidation and business planning.
Career Break at a pharma/biotech company with 1-10 employees
Though it has the ability to manage complex consolidation and modify reporting, it might be complex to implement
Pros and Cons
- "Since it is an enterprise-capable solution, people are not worried about security, giving data, the ability to manage complex consolidation, and its ability to modify reporting."
- "The initial setup of Oracle Hyperion is very difficult."
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
Since it is an enterprise-capable solution, people are not worried about security, giving data, the ability to manage complex consolidation, and its ability to modify reporting. So, these are some of the features of the solution.
What needs improvement?
Evidently, we have a hypothesis. That's why we are building our own product. So, I wouldn't want to dive into the improvements needed in the solution at the moment. Since the UI is outdated, Oracle Hyperion has room for improvement in the area of its UI.
For how long have I used the solution?
Though I have not directly used the solution much, I have worked with a lot of companies that used Hyperion. So, I've probably had about four to five years of experience with Oracle Hyperion. Also, my company is in no way linked to Oracle.
