Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cumulative Feature Overview
Oracle has great tool to help you evaluate and compare different releases of Hyperion EPM. It covers releases back to 9.3.1 up to its newest release of 11.2.1.0.000. Using this tool, you will be able to see the products that continue to be available and the ones that have been discontinued. For those products that have not been discontinued the report will show what Oracle has done to improve the functionality and user interface of each Product.
If, for example, you were presently on Oracle EPM 11.1.2.3 and wanted to compare it with Oracle EPM 11.2. Your first step would be to go to https://apexapps.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=20620:1:0 .
