Featured Reviews

Ashish-Sahu - PeerSpot reviewer
Technical Manager at Bahwan CyberTek
Has delivered visually appealing reports and improved user interaction
The integration of TIBCO Jaspersoft with some data sources has limitations that I encountered, and it was not very straightforward. This was one of the concerns with TIBCO Jaspersoft. The limitations include compatibility with some drivers where we do not have adequate JDBC drivers, and because of that, I am not able to make the connection pool. I do see a negative side in terms of support. I am a little disappointed because when we report any defect, it takes time to get a resolution. There are also limitations on some connectors where we do not have connectivity established. These are the few issues I faced while using TIBCO Jaspersoft.

Data Analyst at Mobolution
Has supported trend analysis and forecasting but needs major fixes in customization and reliability
There are some areas where Zoho Analytics needs improvement compared to Power BI. Uploading and interpreting data inside the interface needs enhancement. While Power BI uses Power Query, an intuitive and powerful tool that allows data manipulation in any way, Zoho Analytics has limitations. I usually prepare data in Excel before uploading it to Zoho Analytics. The charts in Zoho Analytics are not as customizable as in Power BI. While all chart types are available, they can only be modified at a basic level, not an advanced level. Though trend analysis features are provided, creating anything out of the box is challenging.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is standalone with the flexibility to use visualize.js to embed within the application."
"The most valuable features are the security file and the general data level security implementation framework."
"The reporting and charting features: I have worked with other reporting tools and I find this tool is easier and faster to work with while creating charts."
"The reports and analytic view feature and the ability to generate large reports in background are most valuable to us."
"You can do quite a lot with it in terms of automated reports and dashboards."
"The growth time is the most valuable feature of TIBCO Jaspersoft."
"Business processes automation provides higher efficiency and minimizes human error."
"It's easy to use and maintain."
"The AI called Zia in Zoho Analytics is extremely useful—whenever I build a chart or dashboard, I can generate a summary of insights using this AI tool, which is very convenient for both leadership and manager level teams to understand the data concepts."
"The data visualization features of Zoho Analytics have helped me improve decision making for my customers, and I could assess the impact of Zoho Analytics' AI-driven insights on the strategic initiatives of my customers."
"The collaborative features in Zoho Analytics have fostered data-driven decision-making within my team and our customers' teams by enabling seamless communication and shared insights."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Its a fast tool to assist companies who do not want to spend on software developments."
"The major benefit of using Zoho Analytics in our organization is that before implementation, we didn't have any insights or data security and integration capabilities."
"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 integration interface is very easy to use and allows you to directly connect to a variety of APIs."
 

Cons

"A better focus should be put on self-service reporting."
"There might be some compatibility issues with the dashboard if we're using the latest version and some clients are using the older version. Some features might not be supported."
"I would like to see better support for big data."
"Writing custom domains is a difficult task"
"We encountered some scalability issues, as the server doesn't handle too many concurrent connections very well."
"The upgrades are not easy."
"Jaspersoft should focus on user interaction features, and one should not expect it to suit every niche."
"The migration between versions could be hard."
"The support for Zoho Analytics is pathetic."
"The analytics plans are very complex because they depend on the users, while other Zoho plans operate on a per-user basis."
"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 solution does not provide call center facilities for customer support."
"I remember that cleaning up data was a challenge, and on several occasions we had to upload data sets again after making changes in another program."
"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."
"One major issue I face in Zoho Analytics is related to pivot tables. When using two text fields, such as client and project, with numerical data, sorting becomes impossible."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is a little bit expensive."
"I find the price to be reliable and not overly costly."
"I would rate the pricing as four out of five because it's expensive."
"Since I checked last time, only one annual license costs about $25,000."
"I give the cost of the solution a five out of ten."
"The pricing is cost effective because it is based on servers rather than users."
"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 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 product's licensing is reasonable."
"The product is expensive."
"For one license the pricing is about $35 a user."
"I rate the tool's pricing seven out of ten. The licensing costs are yearly."
"The tool's pricing is similar to other Zoho applications and is affordable."
"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."

Jaspersoft vs. Pentaho – Which one to use & is there any need to purchase the commercial edition
Any company (be it technology, manfucaturing, human resource, ecommerce, SME etc) always has the need for Business Intelligence to some or the other extent. If cost is one of the consideration factor, then the 2 BI tools which are at the forefront are Pentaho and Jaspersoft. But, often the same…
