You'll need to know which subject area to use and it's important to validate the data against the front end of the user interface as well before you fully rely on the data from the ad hoc analysis report you create. > > **Cons**: The ad hoc analysis report in Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence is not as user friendly when it comes to combining data from multiple subject areas. Oracle specialists suggest to use Business Intelligence Publisher report instead when combining data from multiple subject areas or consider using Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse. > > My overall experience using Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence to create ad hoc analysis reports are positive to pull data from a single subject area. If it's more than one subject area, it's better to create a BI Publisher report instead. ----- ### ""Oracle BI", a Complete BI solution" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *10 October 2018* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Right investment will always help you generating higher revenues.

From a designer and administrator point of view, the key benefits are the variety of components available for different tasks, e.g. BIPublisher, Data-visualization-desktop, Agents, Action framework and Interactive dashboards. There is a rich visualization library and the option to integrate with third party libraries as well. > > **Cons**: When compared with other BI tools, OBIEE requires a significant infrastructure and detailed planning to implement and manage over time. That is true for the on-premise version. Not necessarily for the Cloud version, which is much more quick to setup and use. ----- ### "i stress-tested this software to understand its peculiarities to sell it to customers" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *10 April 2018* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Integrates completely with the rest of the oracle suite, excellent possibility to automate schedules for notifications and static reporting (by sending them via email). Relatively easy to create data clouds, and model them. Beautiful dashboards, interactive and easy to customize. It is easy to administer the permissions and to create access groups for consulting the analysis > > **Cons**: High initial cost, but turns into an excellent investment. Requires training sessions to be used independently (especially on the back end developer side that user, front end). The language used to connect all data sources is not very easy, not suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. It isn't as good as QlikView how about upgrade, OBI it is not easy to update. > > It is easy to analyze the reports thanks to its ability to show the large amount of data in an attractive way ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/60350/oracle-bi?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/60350/oracle-bi) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
