"The ability to embed, and dynamically repeat, templates within each other is a very simple yet extremely powerful tool."
"Since our initial development, this feature has required very little maintenance. And when changes are requested, it is rather easy to change a Word document template and new staff can be quickly trained to modify a report."
"A new report’s template creation is very often manipulation of a user’s layout of a report. A report can be ready in a day or less, once stored procedures are created as per sections in the report."
"To generate these same tabular formatted reports with a code-only solution would have taken a lot longer to implement than the Docmosis template-based approach. Docmosis templates were easier to design as we were able to use Microsoft Word to create them. The templates made it easy to make any changes to reports and provided flexibility in our design approach."
"Globally, the ability to create document templates in several formats by using a rich syntax is simple and clear to understand."
"There is flexibility in laying out tables that is akin to UI front-end design."
"It's a very strong analytics tool."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Zoho Analytics's most valuable feature is the ability to provide excellent analytics through a single platform."
"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."
"We use the solution for financial and sales analytics. It brings data from our IT incident management tool. Hence, we have three business use cases for IT support, sales and financials."
"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 moved the data from Zoho Creator to Zoho Analytics and created reports."
"Zoho Analytics is the best software for giving reports to customers and we can create any report that is required."
"It would be great to have improved diagnostic and debugging tools. When report templates are complex, sometimes any minor modification needs to be thoroughly tested to ensure that it does not disrupt a previously designed template."
"The challenge in usage when we developed the reports four years ago was the limited logic that can be applied to manipulate and display data. That functionality was largely transferred over to the database layer in creating the data output that was to be displayed."
"Version control and restricted access to some users for template editing could be a useful addition."
"We are facing new challenges such as internationalization. The next big challenge will be to offer even more date formats and numbers that cover the majority of countries. It will be to also think about features, such as number to text conversion, or the reverse which is currently only available in English but is in great demand by our international customers."
"This solution does not support manufacturing facilities."
"The platform's pricing needs improvement."
"The solution's tasks and project management tools are weaker than those of its competitors."
"The support for Zoho Analytics is pathetic."
"There is a limitation that we cannot create more than 300 columns in a worksheet on Zoho Analytics."
"The hourly pricing needs improvement."
"The solution does not provide call center facilities for customer support."
"The navigation on the interface is not intuitive."
