This paper will focus on identifying the similarities and differences between Oracle Financial Analyzer (OFA) and Hyperion Planning (HP). For users who are migrating, or thinking of migrating, to Hyperion Planning, strategies will be discussed to ensure their existing functionality can be replicated in HP. In general, HP has more out-of-the-box functionality compared to OFA and is easier to use from an end user perspective. However, most OFA implementations are customized through Express programming extensions, so OFA seems to offer more flexibility at the cost of higher maintenance. As you look at migrating from OFA to HP, you want to focus on migrating as much of your customized OFA functionality as possible using standard functionality available in HP and Essbase.
