Featured Reviews

Enrique Pacheco Salinas - PeerSpot reviewer
Advanced analytics facilitate strategy development but demand specialized expertise and better support
Oracle Analytics Cloud is not very user-friendly, however, it is robust and capable of performing a wide range of tasks. However, skilled personnel are needed to operate it effectively due to its complexity. In addition, the brand name carries significant value as many large companies and banks are familiar with Oracle.
Muljo Witono - PeerSpot reviewer
Helps to analyze past performance and conduct company performance reviews
Integration with other platforms in Zoho Analytics works fairly well. We've successfully integrated it with other databases. However, the issue lies in the frequency of updates, which happens only every four hours. I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten. I would recommend Zoho Analytics to others. Compared to Microsoft Power BI, it's easier to work with databases for analytics.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The specific capability I find important in Oracle Analytics Cloud is that it allows the basic user to easily drag and drop data. I also like that the solution allows the user to decide what to measure and what to see in the reports."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"The features that I find to be the most valuable are the BAS (Business Analytics), the Narrate feature, and the auto-visualization."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"It plays a crucial role in facilitating decision-making for various organizational stakeholders."
"The most valuable features of the solution are dashboarding and data visualization."
"Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly."
"The advanced calculations by the tool are highly effective"
"Zoho Analytics's most valuable feature is the ability to provide excellent analytics through a single platform."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Zoho Analytics is the best software for giving reports to customers and we can create any report that is required."
"It provides insights into leads, information about the team and about various sales activities. The graphical representations in the form of charts is excellent."
"Ask Zia is a great feature that I use to quickly decide what improvements I need to make in order to present the data that I want to show."
"We can create advanced-level reports with the tool. We can get data from different Zoho applications and also from other third-party applications. We can create schedules for syncing data from third parties to Zoho Analytics. We can also use table queries for getting data from more than one table."
"It's a very strong analytics tool."
"The front end of this solution including the graph generation using SQL has been most useful."
 

Cons

"The scalability has room for improvement."
"The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
"Its machine learning and visualization capabilities can be improved. There should be more visualization options."
"The solution could be more flexible."
"One of the major issues is that Oracle Analytics Cloud is not user-friendly, requiring skilled people with proper certifications to work with it successfully."
"At this time, dataflows cannot be shared, but I think that this should be enhanced."
"When we have, for example, a table with low performance, we have several issues with drawing some graphics in the Oracle cloud."
"Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
"I like the solution's Query Table feature which helps me write SQL queries. We can get data from different tables and then use it to create reports."
"There is a limitation that we cannot create more than 300 columns in a worksheet on Zoho Analytics."
"The customer service and support for this solution could be improved by faster response times."
"There should be more types of graphics available for use in the reports."
"The improvement needed is regarding the number of API calls. Currently, Zoho Analytics only allows us to update data hourly. It would be much better to have updates more frequently every half an hour."
"A higher degree of artificial intelligence could be included in this solution. The data and overall insights could be improved."
"The navigation on the interface is not intuitive."
"I have a lower rating when it comes to Zoho Analytics. The tool has poor performance. It needs to improve the dimensions and measures."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's pricing is not unreasonable or non-competitive."
"Bottom line, the cost is really, really cheap compared to other solutions. Oracle has made a huge effort on the pricing."
"A highly cost-effective solution"
"I don't know the exact cost, but its pricing was good. Its pricing was competitive. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing."
"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The product’s pricing is expensive. However, feature-wise, it fits the requirements of enterprise customers."
"We pay on a monthly basis and it is $10 per user each month."
"The price is reasonable; it's quite a bit lower than Tableau and Spotfire."
"The price is high. The solution advertises that it provides products for 55 AED per user, but these products contain only the basic features. Most of the features are locked. The version of the product that includes Zoho Analytics costs around 199 AED per user per month."
"For one license the pricing is about $35 a user."
"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."
"I don't feel that price is an issue for this product."
"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 tool's pricing is similar to other Zoho applications and is affordable."
"I rate the tool's pricing seven out of ten. The licensing costs are yearly."
