Featured Reviews

Muhammed Shafad - PeerSpot reviewer
Scalable platform with efficient data set creation features
It is a good visual solution tool in an open-source category. Our customers want to improve the business into a SaaS model. They analyze the telecom-based transaction data with SaaS, including the number of subscribers, usage of 4G and 5G networks, etc. The platform improved data analysis for our customers by providing a visualization library. We can drag visualization graphs to create weekly sessions. There is no need to implement any extra coding. It has no code interface allowing us to track the dimensions and measure the canvas. It automatically generates the chat once we select the graph. The most efficient features are data set creation and data manipulation. We can directly use the raw data table and summarize it dynamically by processing the data manipulation window. SQL Editor enhances the data scoring process, helping us write queries directly during dashboard discrepancy issues. We can store the query for future analysis as well. It enables a customizable integration with other data sources. The main benefit of using the product is the ability to access the data source without using any coding. Any user can create reports easily with minimal training. I recommend Apache Superset for customers who are considering open-source vendors. I rate it an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It is a good visual solution tool in an open-source category."
"The no-code interface is the most valuable as it allows us to operate without constant support from the data engineering team, fostering a self-service environment."
"The most valuable feature of Apache Superset is the easy way to configure dashboards as reports or analyses and it's easy to use and intuitive. Users do not need a lot of training to use the solution."
"The solution supports a rich set of charts and enables users to create their own dashboards."
"When you click on any chart, you can apply the filter without any effort."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The solution’s dashboard is very good."
"Scheduling of reports and dashboards is the most valuable feature of Zoho Analytics."
"The data source is the most valuable feature as it can perform any function."
"It provides insights into leads, information about the team and about various sales activities. The graphical representations in the form of charts is excellent."
"I like the way I can share dashboards and embed dashboards. I normally use embedding. So, I create a dashboard, and I embed it into specific websites. Sharing of the dashboard is seamless, and it is easier than any other visualization platform, even Tableau."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its dashboard."
"Zoho Analytics is the best software for giving reports to customers and we can create any report that is required."
 

Cons

"The platform's reporting feature needs enhancement."
"Automation in terms of APIs for creating roles, and giving privileges to the user can be improved."
"Dynamic dashboarding could improve to enable smooth navigation when transitioning from a higher to a lower view, allowing for easy accessibility."
"Apache Superset could be improved by enhancing its interactivity and engagement capabilities."
"With Apache Superset, we had some problems with the permissions when we had too many users."
"There is a limitation that we cannot create more than 300 columns in a worksheet on Zoho Analytics."
"It would be great to have more user input fields which can be used on dashboards."
"In terms of improvement, they have a limited number of graphs available in their store. They should come up with more graph style forms. They should have more charts and at the same time, you can't create panels like with Microsoft BA."
"The navigation on the interface is not intuitive."
"The platform's pricing needs improvement."
"This solution does not support manufacturing facilities."
"They should provide white labeling with a cheaper option. I know they have a white labeling feature in which I can white label Zoho Analytics with my company theme, logo, and URL, but it seems a little expensive. If they can make it cheaper, it would be great. The same is applicable to Tableau."
"A higher degree of artificial intelligence could be included in this solution. The data and overall insights could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Apache Superset is less than some of its competitors."
"Apache Superset is an open-source solution."
"Apache Superset is open-source and free."
"Apache Superset has a three-year licensing model."
"The product's licensing is reasonable."
"I don't feel that price is an issue for this product."
"An exact ROI is hard to calculate. However, we have definitely made sales that would have been much harder, or unlikely, as a result of the speed with which we were able to prepare comprehensive analysis."
"The product is expensive."
"This solution is reasonable as far as pricing is concerned."
"I would recommend looking at your usage and whether the Zoho One license model would work for your organisation. It is very cost effective if you use other Zoho tools."
"The pricing is okay. It is fair compared to the market."
"It is very reasonable, and it gives me a good return on investment. Compared to other tools, it is the best choice in terms of pricing."
