Are You Considering Migrating from OBIEE to Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC)? 7 reasons why other OBIEE customers chose Orbit Analytics.
If you are using Oracle BI Enterprise Edition (OBIEE), it is a matter of time before you consider migrating to an alternative platform since Oracle is withdrawing support for OBIEE. You may be considering Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) or Oracle Analytics Server (OAS), which is what Oracle is suggesting.
Many of our customers thought OAC/OAS was their only option…that is before they took a closer look.
In this post, we share a few reasons why some of our customers chose Orbit Reporting + Analytics after considering the limitations of migration from OBIEE to OAC/OAS.
Customers say “Orbit Reporting + Analytics just works better for operational reporting and enterprise-wide business intelligence. Numerous customers across the globe have migrated from old and legacy tools like OBIEE, Discoverer, Crystal Reports, Oracle Reports, and Hyperion Interactive Reporting and have made the switch to Orbit Reporting + Analytics for the following reasons:
- Single Source of Truth – in Real time: Data is at the core of any business intelligence process and this includes data from multiple sources – both on-premise and on-cloud. Orbit ensures a single source of truth by providing a real-time, unified view of your data. Orbit requires no additional integration tools, thus making it an extremely cost-effective solution. Maintenance is also simple and does away with the need for investing in different tools for your specific business reporting and analysis needs.
- Full Integrated, Fully Secure: Successful deployment of a BI solution requires three important factors to come together: an easy-to-use tool, integration with underlying applications, and tight adherence with application security. Customers appreciate Orbit’s complete integration with Oracle applications such as E-Business Suite (EBS), ERP Cloud (Fusion) applications, Peoplesoft, and JD Edwards. Orbit natively inherits the security rules of these underlying applications. Oracle EBS users can even launch Orbit from within their EBS applications for ease of user experience, while retaining their application security.
- Agile Environment: Most business users want control over data and analytics without having to depend on the IT team for their reporting needs. The Repository Database in the Oracle Analytics Cloud requires your IT team to intervene, manage, and process data for various business functions within your organization. This can cause delays and opportunity loss for your business, especially when organizational agility requires shorter time to market and quicker response times for quick decision making. Intuitive visualizations, data blending, and report distribution capabilities in Orbit empower users to run reports whenever they want and create visualizations that best suit their needs without having to depend on your IT team for reporting.
- Scaling with Ease: In the Orbit Reporting + Analytics, there is no limit to the volume of data you can run concurrent queries on. In Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) for instance, there are storage caps as well as a limit to what volume of data you can query. In OAC, access to your own data is “throttled” by Oracle.. . With Orbit there are no such restrictions or bottlenecks so you can expand your usage to unlimited data sources, unrestricted volumes of data, and to unlimited number of users, with complete peace of mind.
- Pre-Built Reports: Orbit comes with 1,000+ ready to use, pre-built reports to jumpstart business reporting. These pre-built reports are designed to make sense of your three main business areas, financials, supply chain, and human capital management (HCM). These pre-built Orbit Reports are fully customizable and have been created with the business user in mind.
- Cloud-Agnostic: Orbit is cloud server agnostic. It can also let you use your existing cloud investment, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, or any other 3rd party hosting provider. Orbit can be be hosted on private, public or hybrid cloud options.
- Cost-Effective: Orbit, with its thoughtful packaging of services and features, is a cost-effective solution.
