Data projects have grown rapidly and support complex analytics and quick dashboard delivery
Some things that could be improved in Oracle Analytics Cloud is definitely the way it works. In some cases, for example, if you want to create analytic functions such as the percentage of a measure over another, which is a straightforward question you might ask, it appears simple to do, but the result is not what you expect. I would make it more user-friendly in terms of creating new measures. The measure creation feature could be improved. In terms of functionality, there are not many functions that are completely missing. There is one aspect that if you compare it with Power BI from Microsoft, which works completely in memory and therefore puts everything in memory to allow many calculations on the fly on what is in memory, that is missing, but it is architecturally different and would not be possible to ask for something like that. Some time features and time series analysis functions could be improved. Calculating a year ago and previous period functions could definitely work with some improvement.

Has supported trend analysis and forecasting but needs major fixes in customization and reliability
There are some areas where Zoho Analytics needs improvement compared to Power BI. Uploading and interpreting data inside the interface needs enhancement. While Power BI uses Power Query, an intuitive and powerful tool that allows data manipulation in any way, Zoho Analytics has limitations. I usually prepare data in Excel before uploading it to Zoho Analytics. The charts in Zoho Analytics are not as customizable as in Power BI. While all chart types are available, they can only be modified at a basic level, not an advanced level. Though trend analysis features are provided, creating anything out of the box is challenging.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's valuable feature is that it is user-friendly and doesn't require much time for understanding. The solution is stable. The initial setup was straightforward."
"The dashboards, analytics, visualizations, and different reports are valuable for business analytics."
"Using this tool, we were able to forget about using Excel and keep using it as the only source of data."
"A valuable feature is the speed of the solution."
"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."
"This is a stable and scalable solution."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's most valuable feature is its visualization."
"The scalability is acknowledged as pretty good, although my evaluation is limited because I used the tool for a short period."
"We find Zoho Analytics easy to use, making it very beneficial for our operations."
"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 really like that it's user friendly and has a lot of combinations and charts. They're good compared to other tools. We used a free Elastic product, comparatively, this solution is good because of their support, UI, and connecting to databases is very easy."
"It provides insights into leads, information about the team and about various sales activities. The graphical representations in the form of charts is excellent."
"As a product analyst, one of the best features in Zoho Analytics is its ability to allow stakeholders to access raw data for any kind of metric I've created, significantly reducing my dependency to share data sets repeatedly, saving a lot of time."
"We are a hotel chain, there are seven hotels all over the country and Zoho Reports lets us collect important information without traveling or sending big e-mails."
"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."
"Its a fast tool to assist companies who do not want to spend on software developments."
 

Cons

"The product could benefit from increased flexibility compared to other vendors."
"When you implement the product on a small scale, it doesn't generate any ROI."
"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."
"It should simplify data connectivity and modeling, making data extraction more streamlined and adaptable for diverse use cases."
"When we have, for example, a table with low performance, we have several issues with drawing some graphics in the Oracle cloud."
"It is less scalable than Snowflake."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."
"The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
"The tool needs to improve analysis and add more features."
"I remember that cleaning up data was a challenge, and on several occasions we had to upload data sets again after making changes in another program."
"The support team doesn't have full awareness of the system capabilities."
"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."
"It would be great to have more user input fields which can be used on dashboards."
"The customer service and support for this solution could be improved by faster response times."
"I have a lower rating when it comes to Zoho Analytics. The tool has poor performance. It needs to improve the dimensions and measures."
"They should provide white labeling with a cheaper option. I know they have a white labeling feature in which I can white label Zoho Analytics with my company theme, logo, and URL, but it seems a little expensive. If they can make it cheaper, it would be great. The same is applicable to Tableau."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't know the exact cost, but its pricing was good. Its pricing was competitive. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing."
"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"It is an expensive platform."
"We pay on a monthly basis and it is $10 per user each month."
"I would rate it a five out of five in terms of the value received for the price charge."
"The price is reasonable; it's quite a bit lower than Tableau and Spotfire."
"The tool's pricing is not unreasonable or non-competitive."
"The product’s pricing is expensive. However, feature-wise, it fits the requirements of enterprise customers."
"Zoho Analytics costs $ 4,200 per month, billed yearly."
"It is very reasonable, and it gives me a good return on investment. Compared to other tools, it is the best choice in terms of pricing."
"This solution is reasonable as far as pricing is concerned."
"The product is expensive."
"For one license the pricing is about $35 a user."
"An exact ROI is hard to calculate. However, we have definitely made sales that would have been much harder, or unlikely, as a result of the speed with which we were able to prepare comprehensive analysis."
"I rate the tool's pricing seven out of ten. The licensing costs are yearly."
"The tool's pricing is similar to other Zoho applications and is affordable."
