Oracle seems to be a better-developed and well-created tool than Microsoft Power BI. However, Oracle is a bit complicated, especially for its users. So. I'm a part of the IT team that is involved in the configuration of these BI tools. As a member of the IT team responsible for configuring these BI tools, we aim to cater to both management and KPI areas where users only need to view data on their screens and those who require BI solutions like Oracle OBIEE for their daily tasks. While Microsoft's tool is comparatively easier to use, we are struggling to train or show users how to use the Oracle tool. Nonetheless, Oracle is a tool closer to our company's management.

An area for improvement is that Oracle pushes more users to Oracle BI Publisher rather than emphasizing Oracle OBIEE for reporting. Oracle is promoting Oracle BI Publisher as a reporting solution while introducing Oracle OBIEE into the ERP side. In terms of data warehousing and getting on-premises reports, you need to use the Oracle Analytics Server, for example, to fetch the data rather than doing it on Oracle OBIEE, which is another area for improvement. Oracle has more control over the data grid on the cloud versus Oracle OBIEE deployed on-premises, which is a drawback because deploying on the cloud gives you less flexibility in terms of customizations, adding dimensions, etc. The pricing for Oracle OBIEE could be improved.

One of its main features, which is a feature in pretty much every enterprise product these days, is the ability to see a single source of truth (SSOT). It means that of all the different pieces of information in today's contemporary enterprise, you can identify one set of financials, one set of production data, one set of sales, and one set of marketing data, and you can call that the truth or the gold standard. Everybody who accesses the application can refer to the same truth. This is a major benefit of not only OBIEE but many other products, but OBIEE has been doing that for a long time. Being able to access multiple data sources, being able to pull them all together, and being able to establish the same information that everybody can refer to are some of its benefits.

Reviews from Real Users

Sandeep V., Process System Engineer at a comms service provider, tells us, “This solution is very easy for people who are building ad-hoc things. It's an enterprise solution so it can be deployed for a lot of users. There are some great new features that come with the 12c like data visualization, desktop BI Publisher, automation, and interactive dashboards. The product has good features. “

A user who is a CEO at a consultancy relates, “The most valuable feature is the visualization. The data warehousing, data storage, and data wrangling are all features that are in there, and it's one of the better products out there. A good thing is that for large datasets, it's very stable, especially when you have an Oracle database.”

A user who is a Principal Business Intelligence Architect at a computer software company suggests, "It is very biased towards Oracle infrastructure. One of the major red flags we have at the moment against Oracle is that it doesn't support deployment on other cloud providers. We're quite heavily vested in AWS as our infrastructure, and Oracle is yet to formally support deploying on those virtual infrastructure instances. That's quite disappointing, and it also cuts them out of over 70% of the market."
