Hubble Reviews

I like how quickly hubble pulls together JDE Information. We are able to quickly create reports for our financial needs.

I dislike how you will need to reset hubble if you are not actively using it. It sometimes is frustrating to have to exit and log back in if you are away too long.

I recommend using hubble if you need to create specific reports for your work. I have been able to easily modify reports for my daily needs. It helps condense important information in a accurate and timely matter.

Hubble has been able to accurately gather information from JD Edwards for the reports I need. The reports are easy to modify and allow customization for any report you may need for accounting.

I love the ease of access to real-time data whether it's running standard monthly reporting formats or slicing & dicing data to answer one-off requests (without having to constantly manipulate data in excel).

Our relationship with the vendor is really great as well - I find they respond to queries quickly. We've also implemented several upgrades and their team has always walked us thru and helped us over hurdles.

Some of our larger reports run a bit slow due to the amount of calculations built into them.

Hubble is a great product for those looking to easily report out of JDE (monthly reporting, ad-hoc analysis, budget & forecast inputting by managers, real-time reporting available to all users) without having to recreate the wheel in excel.

Our accounting and financial reporting departments love the product - sometimes days go by where we don't even open JDE - all our data is available and easily reported off of thru Hubble.

Easily creating multiple reporting formats for different audiences. The product allows us to create & edit reports without a great deal of report-writing knowledge (eg. changing the order information is displayed, including performance data along with financial, tailoring reports showing the same data for different audiences).

Hubble also allows managers to directly enter their own financial forecasts & budgets - speeding up the variance analysis process.

The ease of use for most of the functions is very helpful when trying to fit a new software into an already busy schedule. I can run basic reports in second for all departments in the organization.

Some of the more advance functions seem overly complicated, like hierarchy and time series. It take a lot of invested time to get them where you want to be but after that there is very little maintenance which makes it worth it.

Try out the basic functionality to see if it will suit your short terms needs first because some of the more advance features will take a while to develop but are worth it.

I am solving the need for quick reports for various business units so they can move along with making their decisions. This allows the organization to move quicker on the different opportunities that arise and correct errors more quickly then before by giving visibility to all aspects of the company.

Hubble has finally allowed our company to build reports that matter to our sales team. Having the ability to export all reports into excel and create visual graphics of data, that updates automatically, has been a huge benefit to our sales reporting.

Hubble doesn't have a lot of support material on the web. Google doesn't get you very far. I definitely recommend training classes that they offer.

If you currently use JDE and struggle to get meaningful reports that all members of your team can interpret I highly recommend looking at Hubble. After all, what good is data if the individuals that need it most can't interpret it.

We can more easily track our customers sales trends as well as their payment situations. It has also allowed us to budget and build expense reports for all internal members of the team.

The pre-built report templates in Hubble really make it easy to dump out data to research and analyze. They are user-friendly and can be popped directly into Excel.

In earlier versions of Hubble, some of the filters were a little sensitive, so it was easy to lock up a report, but those issues seem to have been addressed.

I highly recommend Hubble. It is an easy tool to use. Those of us who use it at my company, no longer have to rely on JDE World Writer reports and the Showcase tool. Neither of those were very user friendly.

I mainly use Hubble to dump data out of JDE for monthend reporting. I have eliminated the need for JDE World Writer reports and the multiple steps required create a data set and build a report in Showcase. I have realized huge time savings and greatly simplified my report processes.

The ease and speed at which reports can be done. The flexibility within the system to get the required information all together in one report

The prompt button to save is missing, when running a report and it has hit the server it just hangs if the user did not complete the correct information. Hubble report cannot be cancelled. As we are working on Citrix we need the MIS to close the session, reset and then we can only continue working on Hubble.

It is easy to use and implement. Giving the power to the end user to develop and use the reports as needed. Flexibility in using the program to deliver the outcomes

Providing reports to users enabling them to have relevant information at the click of a button. Linking tables to provide more business related reports and information they want to see. Enhances productivity and also helps with picking up errors within our ERP system.

You can retrieve real time data. It is easy and quick. Once you use this product you will pull all of your data from here and not even look in your ERP system any longer.

There really isn't anything I dislike. You will need to know your data and tables in order to use this product.

If you have power users that know their data this product is AWESOME.

We utilize this product heavily in creating integrity reports to detect things like if it is this and not this then show me. Or no sub-ledger being used where they should be before Payroll is kicked off. Financial Statements and Cash Flows for CAFR. Gosh there is so many.

The ability to create a report once and then run it over and over for different time periods. The amount of time we used to spend of diving into the numbers was significant. Now we spend time analyzing the numbers instead of just putting them together.

When you close the product down it doesn't prompt you to save. Some of the AR reports take a long time to run.

Talk to customers who are actually using the product to get an idea of the time savings possible with Hubble.

We've seen many improvements since implementing Hubble. I would say the most significant would be the ability for Accounting to get the information they need on their own, without needing to bother IT and then wait a month for them to have time to help. Upper management comes to Accounting with requests and we can turn them around very quickly and accurately.

Easy to use, fast implementation, and the best customer service.

I wish they had more templates for other modules in Oracle ERP system.

My suggestion would be to understand and know your data before creating reports.

I am able to create and update reports on the fly. It cuts down a lot of research time. I was able to abandon Discoverer and Oracle Standard reporting rather quickly.

Easy to use but flexible. It's easy to use the stock reports but you customize for you own needs. Also, they have a tool which will allow you to make your own reports by adding tables and joins.

Sometimes it will give you an error and you have to restart the program but we have not upgraded in a few years so the bugs have probably been addressed. They sent updates at least twice a year with improvements. Our IT just doesn't take advantage of it.

Worth every penny. Support is outstanding!

We are able to create new reports without the IT department. We use a lot of exception reports to catch errors.

Ease of use and flexibilty of writing reports and inquiries.

Nothing, because some of the perceived limitations, are my lack of advanced training.

If you need to analyze data and like to export to Excel. This is a great tool! You can do so much with it.

Forecasting, detailed account reconciliation, and audit support. We don't have to rely on our IT deparment to get information or repoorts for us. The process is much smoother and quicker!

Hubble eliminates most of the need for a developer to create reports for user groups and it shortens the development to production time for generating reports. Also think the ability to guide users to drill down detail information is great.

There are road blocks where you create reports and then hit a massive roadblock. Example - not all features are the same for Hubble standard modules vs. Designer Express. Hubble module for Homebuilder is very thin and does not cover enough of how the industry truly looks at their data. Also finding more and more the need for Virtual SQL. While VS offers you more power, it then requires more technical expertise to create the report. Typical users would not have virtual SQL experience.

Have better visibility to our data and how we interpret the data. This is providing our operational divisions with better analysis to base their decision making on.

One of the best features is the ability to write report on the fly (ad hoc) and knowing that I am querying live data within our ERP system. The training tools and ability to obtain templates from other users is also a great feature

At time it can be difficult when writing report and you are not as familiar with the table names and need to poke around a bit to ensure you are using the proper table

Ease of use. Ability to use the services and assign only modules the users need.

The ability to produce reports without having to call IT and knowing that you have captured all available data. This helps significantly with Freedom of Information Act requests as I can pull the data and provide in a timely manner

Insight is an excellent reporting & strategic planning tool. The simple and quick aggregation of data from any JDE module in real time. The flexibility to create new reports with excellent advanced features.

when creating reports on custom tables losing standard report functionality

Financial reporting for a large # of companies in multiple currencies and reporting requirements

Flexibility around creating reports, easy to export data. Reports are instant and timely with up to date information, easy to refresh reports to show changes in the system. Variety of sample reports to get you started.

Very Little i don't like, perhaps more report wizards, and more complicated calculations would be an advantage.

Great Flexible tool, for all your day to day reporting as well as end of month and yearly reporting

Aged inventory was a big issue, now we are able to maximize the use of our age inventory through reporting. Visibility of Age inventory with the click of a button. Lower inventory cost saving.

Ease of writing reports, changing, updating and the dashboards within Hubble Analytics. The dashboards blow our executive team out of their minds, they love them.

Not being able to calculate off company constant period.

Spend the extra money for Analytics, hands down no question it is worth it.

More information in the hands of our field team. The benefit is that all field managers are able to use the exact same reports, with one sign on location, a web page. This allows them to access anywhere - even on their smartphone.

Construct all kind of reports for bussiness using templates or creating reports from scratch

Create Graphics is not he best feature of insight

Dont be affraid of buy Hubble is a great tool

THe bussines problems solved by Hubble is uncountable. The benefits of ussing hubble in month closing, quarter end in finance dept really make's a diference in time and effort.

and also construct reports on the fly is quite easy

Real time, ease of use, presentable, export to excel and drill through to details.

Client is slow therefore has to use Citrix or Remote desktop to login

This is a great reporting tool for accounting team who use Oracle ERP

Oracle doesn't have a report tool that is ease of use, presentable, export to excel and drill through to details.

This tool really helps to save time and effort during month closings. It is extremely user friendly and can start being used the minute it is implemented. It is always accurate and readily available. The customer service is also great.

There really is not much I dislike about the product. The only thing I dislike is that my company now does not use it.

I recommend you grant access to all employees to view forecasts on hubble.

Accuracy and speed when it comes to the close process.

The power. The speed. The ease of use. Great product, great customer service. Hubble saves time, effort and keeps the stress levels low. It is a lifesaver for us, we would have been lost without it

can't think of anything, this I a really great product

Hubble will blow you away

reporting

budgeting

Analytics

analytics

Hubble is easy to learn and use and I would highly recommend it because of how easy it is to use.

I cannot think of anything that I dislike about the product or service..

Buy It!

Expedited our closing process. Also, the user friendly nature has allowed us to quickly create reports and analysis on the fly as needed.

I like the fact that I can run reports from our JDE system using live data.

Some of the design of creating the reports can get a little tricky.

Great live reporting using JDe data.

I am able to get people updated reports.

I like the flexibility it offers and the easy user interface.

Trying to figure out what fields are in what table in Oracle to connect can be difficult.

They are several manual spreadsheets and manual calculations that several people are performing monthly and we now have the ability to create a report that will automatically do all of this for us.

Simple to get started and to customize. The collaboration features are beneficial because you can see what others are using and learn from them.

Initial configuration is a bit tricky. If you bypass the setup, then you miss out on features. However, it's not mandatory and is difficult to get back to.

Provides users with access to reports so they can access information without relying on IT or the financial department's resources.

Simple to set up reports & queries. The queries run very fast. Intuitive user interface. Very powerful functionality. Can set up board quality financial reports.

The graphing features could be better, but we only have the Reporting product and I know the Analytics product has much better graphing features.

Financial reporting and querying for the financial closing process.

From an MIS perspective, the DX module opens up our internal reporting layer to be accessed by the users.

A better mechanism to restrict reporting users from accessing proprietary db objects after it's registered. Allowing other db objects from other systems either native or data warehouse.

If you are a user and want to tailor your basic ERP reports to your business then invest in Hubble. It covers the basic financial modules.

Using Hubble to access data warehouse that supports our Hyperion stack.

I like the visualization capabilities the product has

Really do not dislike anything - when we find issues, they are taken care of promptly

Very easy to work with

We utilize for levels of service, and we can easily recognize when there is an issue

Great support from Insight on any issues we have had.

More robust charting would be a great addition.

Give it a trial.

Ability to drilldown on real time data.

Close proximity to JDE. Very easy to use.

Not muchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

We are a small administration with IT support mainly from externals. With Hubble we can develop reports ourselves without the need of time consuming and costly IT projects. Ad Hoc queries are easy to make, which makes audits faster.

Real time access to JD Edwards data, ability for users to create their own reports, ability to access non-standard JD Edwards tables.

Licensing structure--the fact that DX licensing is separate from SU licensing.

Ensure you have a governance structure in place for managing enterprise standard reports to ensure one version of the truth.

Getting the tools and data in the hands of our users so they have the information they need to analyze financial results/performance.

Lots of opportunities, ability to customize report in few clicks, which is very helpful when people are changing their requests often

Ability to run several reports at once. I can't think of anything else at this point.

Report's optimization.

Hubble has a great deal of flexibility. I don't think we ran into any needs it hasn't met!

Like all new software products, it was a little difficult to master at first but with time, it is becoming second nature.

Don't hesitate to "dive right in"! You'll pick up on it soon enough and will be happy you did.

The ability to satisfy user needs quickly and efficiently.

I am able to customize financial reports with color

I do not have any dislikes with this product

on the fly financial reports

The ability to create reporting hierarchies to create consolidated balance sheets and income statements.

The folder organization could use more structure.

We use hubble for our internal financial reporting.

The financial reporting options... The ability to create reports to your specifications...

The EXCEL formatting isn't always how you would like it to look...

None, at the moment...

Way better reporting tool than using JDE alone.

The cost. Licenses are expensive. Also, you have to be fairly technical to be able to build reports.

Can report on any information out of JDE that we would never be able to pull comprehensively out of JDE itself.

Real time restatements of JDE data have allowed us to close the books in a more timely fashion.

The speed for opening reports and running them needs to be improved.

This is a vast improvement over JDE reporting

The ability to see real time restatements has reduced our month end closing process by a full day.

The reports run quickly and allow for dynamic options.

The programming is not intuitive. If time is spend developing a report, is can be figured out, but it is difficult to retain the directions to set up.

It is essential.

I am able to run detail activity and drill into transactions.

Ease of Use and speed. Report Formatting is great.

Not enough customization. Insight Scheduler Tool needs improvement.

Training End-Users to get the most out of the tool will be your biggest issue.

Closing Books. Empowering our end-users to be self-sufficient. Able to create reports with formatting.

Does not require support from the IT team.

There are no negative comments I can think of.

Easy to use for the end-user.

Allows our Finance team to provide month-end financial statement to our parent company, without needing to lean on IT resource.

Ease of use and output. Very quick for new joiners to learn and use

The lack of ability to drill down and report in certain aspects, but that is more related to our current Oracle set up

AR, AP, Employee Expense MI

I liked the visualization capabilities and the ERP integration.

Really don't dislike anything - didn't work with it that much.

Very easy to work with. Utilized for issue recognition, accuracy and speed.

Hubble's customer support is great. They always go above and beyond for their customers.

Need to focus more on Real Estate Reporting.

Recreate my manual reportsd we have to date.

Great for efficiency and reducing paper and exhausting/repeated communication

the UI is not as strong as competitors but still good

communication is the biggest but also being aware of everyones completion
