Featured Reviews

Enrique Pacheco Salinas - PeerSpot reviewer
Advanced analytics facilitate strategy development but demand specialized expertise and better support
Oracle Analytics Cloud is not very user-friendly, however, it is robust and capable of performing a wide range of tasks. However, skilled personnel are needed to operate it effectively due to its complexity. In addition, the brand name carries significant value as many large companies and banks are familiar with Oracle.
Laban Kipngeno - PeerSpot reviewer

"Oracle Analytics Cloud is not very user-friendly, however, it is robust and capable of performing a wide range of tasks."
"Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us. All employees can access it from anywhere. It is a big advantage for us."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's most valuable feature is its visualization."
"The specific capability I find important in Oracle Analytics Cloud is that it allows the basic user to easily drag and drop data. I also like that the solution allows the user to decide what to measure and what to see in the reports."
"The solution’s dashboard is very good."
"Scheduling of reports and dashboards is the most valuable feature of Zoho Analytics."
"The integration interface is very easy to use and allows you to directly connect to a variety of APIs."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"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 can create advanced-level reports with the tool. We can get data from different Zoho applications and also from other third-party applications. We can create schedules for syncing data from third parties to Zoho Analytics. We can also use table queries for getting data from more than one table."
"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."
"The front end of this solution including the graph generation using SQL has been most useful."
 

Cons

"Its machine learning and visualization capabilities can be improved. There should be more visualization options."
"The product should improve its user interface. It should be welcoming and modern. Developers should also find it easier to build data models. Oracle Analytics Cloud needs to have better visualizations and more options in the marketplace."
"Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
"It should simplify data connectivity and modeling, making data extraction more streamlined and adaptable for diverse use cases."
"The solution could be more flexible."
"The learning curve should be improved, and I'm uncertain if tutorials are readily available or easily accessible. We may have resorted to looking on YouTube for such information. Having easily understandable documents or guides for new users would be beneficial. AI integration would be an interesting feature to add in the next release."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."
"A higher degree of artificial intelligence could be included in this solution. The data and overall insights could be improved."
"In terms of improvement, they have a limited number of graphs available in their store. They should come up with more graph style forms. They should have more charts and at the same time, you can't create panels like with Microsoft BA."
"The support for Zoho Analytics is pathetic."
"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."
"The navigation on the interface is not intuitive."
"The tool needs to improve analysis and add more features."
"The platform's pricing needs improvement."
"The customer service and support for this solution could be improved by faster response times."
