dashboards are good and data visualization is more meaningful for the end-user
Access is always via URL, and unless your network is fast, it would be a little tough in India. In India, if we had a faster network, it would be easier. In a big data environment, like when forcing your database with over a billion records, it can be tough for the end-user to manage the data. You need to have a single entity system in each environment. It's not because of GCP, but it would be great to have options like MongoDB or other similar tools in GCP. Then, we wouldn't always need to connect to the cloud and execute SQL queries. Even if your application is always connected to its database, the processing can be cumbersome. It shouldn't be so complicated. Once the data is collected, it should be easily sorted.

The infographics feature is unique to Necto. However, they need better tutorials and community support.
The best feature I liked is the infographics which is great and it's best unique feature. It helps developers use existing infographics from the library or they can create their own and present to end users It's quite easy to create reports in Necto using the infographics feature. Collaboration…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The infrastructure is highly reliable and efficient, contributing to a positive experience."
"In MLOps, when we are designing the data pipeline, the designing of the data pipeline is easy in Google Cloud."
"The APIs are valuable."
"Google Cloud Datalab is very customizable."
"For me, it has been a stable product."
"All of the features of this product are quite good."
"Infographics are totally cool."
"It is an easy infographic design app that requires very little effort to produce interactive dashboards in ways that make sense to the enterprise."
"Due to Panorama Necto, everything becomes centralized now, so anyone can easily access their reports from a central repository."
"Eye catching infographics and very good collaborative capabilities providing context based discussion has really impressed our users within the organization."
"Very effective data presentation and collaborative environment."
"I have recently started working on this tool, and being a novice to the analytic field, I feel quite comfortable with this tool even during my beginner sessions."
"It provides great infographics."
"Excellent in memory performance, return results with clicks, matchless click to collaborate features, just initiate discussion on data points and context, connect relevant users and dashboards and explore suggestive auto insight."
 

Cons

"Connectivity challenges for end-users, particularly when loading data, environments, and libraries, need to be addressed for an enhanced user experience."
"We have also encountered challenges during our transition period in terms of data control and segmentation. The management of each channel and data structure as it has its own unique characteristics requires very detailed and precise control. The allocation should be appropriate and the complexity increases due to the different time zones and geographic locations of our clients. The process usually involves migrating the existing database sets to gcp and ensure data integrity is maintained. This is the only challenge that we faced while navigating the integers of the solution and honestly it was an interesting and unique experience."
"Even if your application is always connected to its database, the processing can be cumbersome. It shouldn't be so complicated."
"The product must be made more user-friendly."
"The interface should be more user-friendly."
"There is room for improvement in the graphical user interface. So that the initial user would use it properly, that would be a good option."
"It is only able to be installed on Windows, and they should offer a Linux-based version as well."
"Linux-Unix support"
"There is need for improvement with report sharing and documentation."
"I think the dashboard is not that catchy for the first time."
"Support for bi directional language is not powerful. (Arabic, Hebrew) BIGDATA is questionable"
"Limited support for big data analytics."
"Training, tutorial and awareness."
"Sometimes cloud version hangs, but this could be due to issues in network firewall, so not sure."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is affordable for us because we have a limited number of users."
"The pricing is quite reasonable, and I would give it a rating of four out of ten."
"The product is cheap."
