Pros
"Initial setup is straightforward.""I like the fact that in the duplicate section, I can find matches, and I can find situations where certain cells or certain cell points match, but there's a difference as well between two different records.""It is very flexible and has hundreds of functions.""The most valuable feature of ACL Analytics is its powerful data control capabilities.""The tool's most valuable feature is its ability to import files from other software packages.

Cons
"The ease of use could be better.""​Reporting and presentation of information directly to solutions, such as PowerPoint.​""The product's pricing has increased over the years.""It would be beneficial if the software could improve its capabilities when extracting data from databases, particularly for those who may not be familiar with SQL queries."

More ACL Analytics Cons →

"The Linux compatibility of this solution could be improved.""An improvement would be if there was an another way to manage the logs besides email because it's not so practical.""There is room for improvements when it comes to the licensing.""There is room for improvement with the introduction of AI functionality.""The solution lacks self-service on password reset. It also needs to improve its scalability.""When there are issues I would like remediation to be in one place.""If you buy direct, there is a minimum of 150 licenses that must be procured. The price point and barrier of entry is a little bit higher than it would be if you purchased the solution from an authorized reseller partner, rather than buying it and managing yourself.""I expect usability features to become more refined over time. I'm interested to see how it evolves and continues to improve."
