Reviewed in Last 12 Months How Alternatives Are Selected 
First, an overall caveat that we are still implementing the solution and plan to go live in May of 2018, so my feedback is specific to implementation.
Especially within the Utility GBU, we've been very, very happy with the support we've received from Oracle development. We've also had occasion to bring in what are referred to as "black belts" who have access to many areas of Oracle and that was a good experience, helping us work through some tough technical issues. When we need help outside of the Utility GBU the response is slower and requires more work on our part, but I wouldn't say more so than any other vendor I've had in the past. I also appreciate Oracle's use of customer groups to inform the product. We even had that product managers out for a couple of days during the project to provide feedback on functionality gaps and "wish list" items.
We've been very happy with the feature completeness of the product and have very few customizations, which is evidence of a very mature product. CC&B, MDMS, SOM, SGG, DataRaker and OPower have been very good for us. ODM needs to add some features particularly around the device management lifecycle (Out of the box reporting for meter sampling, more structure around receiving stock), which I think will come with time. OUA has been challenging to implement and run, but really beats the alternative of creating a custom data warehouse.Read all insights and reviews for Utilities Customer Care & Billings (CC&B) Where UMAX Scored Higher
