Essbase Review
What do you like best? In my opinion, the real power of Essbase is the Ad-hoc capabilities in Excel. What do you dislike? There is a learning curve that can be difficult for some user, particularly those who have used Excel in one way for most of their career. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? I primarily use Essbase for a Management dashboard and for Planning. Also creating numerous ad-hoc reports.
