Centralized monitoring has improved data quality and now keeps daily reporting reliable
What I like most about Decube are the data quality monitoring, pipeline monitoring, and alerting features. It makes it easier to spot issues early, track data freshness, and understand what's going wrong without having to manually check everything. The alerting features in Decube are really helpful because I don't have to keep checking everything manually. If a pipeline fails, data is delayed, or something unusual happens, Decube notifies me so I can look into it quickly. It saves time and helps me catch small issues before they affect our reports or daily work. Decube brings useful monitoring tools together, saves manual effort, and makes it easier to maintain reliable data pipelines with fewer surprises.

Data pipelines have accelerated reporting and now support faster, broader decision making
On SAS Viya Platform, I have not found any challenges or pain points as of now, but something can arise while working, and at that time I will keep my records to provide feedback. There is always a chance of improvement in any software, and it varies from user to user. Users may have personal requirements, such as being able to do a specific task if a certain option is enabled. Currently, I feel it is very good, and I may not be able to give suggestions at the moment due to just one and a half years of utilization, but I can provide input in the future.

Pros

"Decube brings useful monitoring tools together, saves manual effort, and makes it easier to maintain reliable data pipelines with fewer surprises."
"The data lineage chart is definitely helpful because it allows us to traverse how data flows from the source to the report layer, providing full visibility of how the system works."
"SAS Viya Platform has positively impacted our organization by allowing us to make concrete decisions about stock ordering without either underordering or overcommitting financially across a wide range of products."
"SAS Viya Platform has positively impacted my organization, as previously I was using SAS 9.4, and after migrating to SAS Viya Platform, we are able to present the data in useful ways that save our time and give sponsors a new opportunity to look at the data, which is a very good thing."
"SAS Viya Platform is a great tool for our data analytics purpose, particularly how data profiling stands out compared to other tools impressed me."
"SAS Viya Platform has positively impacted my organization by saving time compared to when we were using SAS 9.4, as we can now work on two to three projects simultaneously within one hour, which is a significant improvement."
"From my perspective as an administrator, the best features that SAS Viya Platform offers include scalability."
"Many good things stand out about SAS Viya Platform, including that it is a very mature tool, very reliable, and performs very consistently."
"SAS Viya Platform brought several positive outcomes to my project: the centralized investigation platform, real-time fraud detection with Kafka streams scored in real time, improved reporting via SAS Visual Analytics, and the ability to scale for larger businesses."
"In my experience, the best feature of SAS Viya Platform is that it is very quick in doing the analysis, does the job very quickly and very well without any issues, and I was able to do multiple analyses at the same time."
 

Cons

"There are a few drawbacks to the product. If I delete any record, it is not immediate and does not allow me to create the assets again."
"Decube could improve by offering more customizable alerts, a simpler dashboard, faster setup, and clearer troubleshooting suggestions when pipeline issues occur."
"However, the complexity of licensing and learning curves for users can be challenging."
"SAS Viya Platform has a bit of a learning curve. It was not easy to start with."
"Their support system is a very lengthy process. We need to send out an email to them, and then they will respond and ask for logs and all those things, which is a very lengthy process."
"The cost is also quite high; SAS Viya Platform via SaaS can be expensive compared to some open-source or other cloud alternatives."
"I rate it a nine because for a fresher, the platform might not be entirely intuitive."
"It was very difficult to build the required calculations directly on the reporting side, and we sometimes struggled."
"I have one complaint about SAS Viya Platform: it offers so many options in each application that someone new who is not familiar with SAS functionality might have trouble, as the learning curve can be very hard for a new learner."
"I think SAS Viya Platform could be improved as it is a little bit limited; for instance, you have to purchase specific features such as charts and quality control, so it is not a full analytics product."
