When I first tried Blitz I was amazed at how much faster I could extract the same amount of information, as the same account information in Blitz could be extracted 4 to 5 times as fast as a GL wand drill down. I was also excited to find out how easy it is to set the reports up to publish directly to a network drive, making it very easy to schedule recurring reports and then combining them using Power BI into easy to use dashboards. After making the decision to switch to Blitz reports based on the superior functionality for financial reporting, our functional users started using the available reports for other Oracle modules. This ended up being the biggest benefit for our company as our users were finally able to get Oracle reports that were easy to read and analyze. This also expanded our use of Power BI dashboards given the ease of publishing the Excel files directly to a network folder in a ready to use format. Overall the switch to using Blitz reports has been a huge benefit for our company, with every functional area having benefitted from this product.

This product was much easier to install and integrate than our previous product, so no cons to report.

Enginatics is extreemly responsive to suggestions for enhancements! DeKalb's use of Blitz is so great that our migration to the cloud is dependent on the availability of Blitz. I see no reason why a company would not take advantage of the free download and just give Blitz a test run. My money is on you purchase it!!

First of all the cost of this product is so inexpensive I could order it with my level of buying authority! Second the ease of use! Within 2 hours of installing Blitz I was up creating documents. The security of Blitz is regular Oracle Applications security. The community of Blitz Users have produced many reports that are available for download for FREE. Blitz has more functionality than just reporting, albeit I do not utilize its capabilities.

I have zero complaints about Blitz. This survey is making me enter a complain...sooooo let's go with not a separate manual for the end end user that shows only how to run the report. FYI Enginatics sent me thier WORD version of the User guide and all I needed to do is cut out the sections I did not want to use for the END USER.

As a developer of reports for our company, Blitz has been super-easy to use. There are no issues with connections because it is entirely integrated into Oracle. It comes with beaucoup seeded reports that can be used as-is or as a starting-point to build more customized versions. When support is needed, they have always been extremely quick to respond. They are eager to build recommendations into the standard functionality, as they can visualize how other customers can use the functionality as well.

New versions are being released regularly, so there are new features available upon upgrading, but this does require our DBA to test and install these revisions regularly as well.

Overall experience has been extremely positive. Customer Service has been amazing. I logged a support ticket late on a Friday and still received a phone call back that same day. It was 11 pm in Switzerland, but that didn't matter! The problem was resolved! The Blitz Team is passionate about their product and it shows.

We were heavily dependent on Discoverer and needed a tool to fill that gap. We implemented OBIEE, but users still needed operational reporting. The need for large data extracts, into Excel, was always going to be required. We needed a tool to make it easier for people to extract data into a spreadsheet, without having to learn SQL. We really appreciate the catalog and version control capabilities in Blitz. Users can run reports without leaving the Oracle EBS. We don't allow users to modify the queries themselves. Some shops might like that, but we control the queries that run in Production. (We develop in DEV, test in UAT and migrate to PROD. Export/Import makes this it very easy to migrate from one instance to another.)

There is no down side to this product.

The main benefits we have realized is moving our Discoverer reports into Blitz , when we upgraded the Oracle Discoverer tools were discontinued and we used Blitz migration tool to import existing reports and was up and running quickly.

We started using Blitz years ago to retrieve high volume data quickly. During this process we also learned one time reports or queries run by analyst to support day to day exceptions can be quickly turned into a report so we don't loose those knowledge at the same time security is not compromised.

They still need to use and know the Oracle EBS functionality and combing other data source e.g HCM have to be done manually on Excel

Excellent! Very pleased I stumbled upon this when I was doing research for tools to replace Discoverer and Sql Server Reports.

We like the integregration right into Oracle EBS, the simplified pricing, speed of development, and the ability to review and use canned reports. For reports that don't need to be pretty but need to be fast, this is an excellent tool. Their support has been excellent, very quick reponses with good knowledge of their report tool and the Oracle functions and processes.

Not a con per se...but this is *not* a report tool to make polished and pretty reports to be sent to external parties.

The ease of implementing and creating new reports. Knowing that customer service is available at any time and that they will research and assist until any issue is resolved.

Blitz was unbelievable easy to implement. Customer service is amazing and they go above and beyond to assist with any questions. Report were easily converted. Creating new report and migrating between instances is done with ease.

I can not think of any cons regarding the software .

Very positive - the team is very knowledgeable and have made our lives much simpler

I love the ease of use and the fact that is sits naturally within normal menu structure and shares the look and feel - publishing is incredibly fast - Deployment and upgrade is incredibly simple

Lack of FA reports , but these will come with time

This tool allows rapid reporting from inside Oracle E-Business Suite all security features enabled as it runs inside the Concurrent Processing framework.

very easy implementation of custom reports : sql in : Excel out .. great replacement for Oracle Discoverer

nothing.

Positive overall especially working with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN].

Easy to create and run reports. The seeded reports are a big plus.

Nothing. All is good. No issues whatsoever. Made the 40 min!
