"EPBCS for Capital and Operational Expense Planning"
What do you like best about Oracle Hyperion Planning?

It provides a single platform for all users so that there is consistency in the information recevied. It also helps us to quickly pull aggregated data as soon as it's input. This has helped because we no longer get different answers depending on whose spreadsheet is looked at. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle Hyperion Planning?

There is a lot of processes that still occur outside of the application that we perform in order to provide our inputs. This has caused some challenges in user adoption as spreadsheets are easier for them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Actual and forecasting cubes are seamlessly integrated, making it a very dynamic tool to compare forecast and Actual financial information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is not easy and intuitive and needs lots of training and configurations. The most important aspect is the correct implementation of the suite to integrate with Salesforce and other applications and also have a way to add Headcount and commentary details as part of the financial information.

"Good enterprise level planning tool"

The drawback of using Hyperion is the lack of any advanced analytical or dashboarding capabilities within the tool. You either need to suffice with the basic dashboarding capabilities or get an external dashboarding tool like PowerBI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
