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.

Data Analyst at Mobolution

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

"The best feature may be data flow, which is used to prepare and clean data."

"It plays a crucial role in facilitating decision-making for various organizational stakeholders."

"It's really an enterprise solution. It has a dashboard, like standard dashboarding functionality. It also has reporting capabilities for producing pixel-perfect reports, bursting large volumes of a document if you need to. It has interactive data discovery functionality, which you would use to explore your data, bring your own data, and merge it with maybe the data from an enterprise data warehouse to get new insights from the pre-existing data. It has machine learning embedded in the solution. If you're new to machine learning, it's a really good way to get into it, because it's all within this platform, and it's really easy to use."

"This solution is not that well known by clients but is a great product to use."

"Oracle Analytics Cloud allowed us to deliver faster analytics and to have a self-secured, self-tuning, self-maintained platform."

"The product is able to compare with other tools on the market; it has everything you need, everything you can find in other tools such as Tableau and Power BI, and additionally, it has history, so you get a robust solution with support."

"Technical support is very fast and accurate."

"It has the best feature for data augmentation."

More Oracle Analytics Cloud pros

"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."

"Scheduling of reports and dashboards is the most valuable feature of Zoho Analytics."

"It's a very strong analytics tool."

"The data source is the most valuable feature as it can perform any function."

"The variety of reports, tables, and dashboards that are automatically generated and ready to use are applicable to many different demands, saving a lot of time and allowing the business analyst to focus on content and insights."

"The tool's most valuable feature is its dashboard."

"What I like the most is the flexibility of creating dashboards."

"The front end of this solution including the graph generation using SQL has been most useful."

More Zoho Analytics pros

Cons

"As with most BI tools, the visualizations can be made much nicer."

"The pricing model in Microsoft is more straightforward. With Oracle, you have the data visualization and enterprise lines, and to put it simply, both appear as more expensive options for customers trying to get oriented in the segment."

"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."

"The interfaces could be improved and some in-memory operations could be built into Oracle Analytics."

"The migration of older dash tools from the classic interface of Oracle BI prior to OAS launch to the newer Data Visualization and Oracle Analytics Cloud interfaces, including dashboards and metadata, is currently a cumbersome process. Improvements in this area would be highly beneficial. Additionally, the administration of the cloud, particularly the startup of services and linking of the WebLogic server and integrated components, takes longer than desired. In today's enterprise landscape, waiting forty minutes for the server to be operational is quite lengthy; ideally, this process should take a maximum of four minutes. It would be excellent to incorporate metadata management as an integral part of the Oracle Analytics Cloud. When dealing with integrated data from various sources, tracking data lineage and the entire data life cycle, from sources to report development and the mapping of reports to specific dashboards, should be seamlessly managed within the Oracle Analytics Cloud. This would eliminate the need for additional tools. Drawing a comparison, tools like Tableau have a feature enabling metadata management, making it easier to trace the complete data lineage of reports. Managing over seven hundred and thirty-six business dashboards, the metadata management capability within Tableau simplified the process of understanding how reports were developed, including details like associated tables, users, linked views, materialized views, data segmentations, ETL jobs, and the data warehouse stages. Enhancing metadata tracking within the Oracle Analytics Cloud layout would facilitate easy and practical management of the complete data life cycle, encompassing user accessibility and report permissions."

"When you implement the product on a small scale, it doesn't generate any ROI."

"It's not a failure of the product; it's just an architectural choice. It has to do with data modeling. I'm comparing this to another product, which is Oracle's developer client and probably called Oracle BI Developer Client Tool. The data modeler, which is cloud-based, and Oracle BI Developer Client Tool, which is local or on-premises-based, both can do the same thing in data modeling. However, the cloud tool does not have as many features as the Oracle BI Developer Client Tool, which is closest to the OBIEE Administration Tool with full feature data modeling, metadata development, and so forth. In a complex environment or implementation, that is the capability that you need."

"I looked at the predictive analytics feature in Oracle Analytics Cloud, but I used it very little because, everything considered, it does not add very much."

More Oracle Analytics Cloud cons

"It should have more options for graphics, if it stayed with the quality of graphs of excel, would be great."

"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."

"Regarding stability and reliability, Zoho Analytics has multiple bugs. One significant issue is that you cannot create multiple charts with the same name."

"The ability to copy a full database is lacking, making it difficult to create test environments."

"The platform's pricing needs improvement."

"The support team doesn't have full awareness of the system capabilities."

"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."

"However we do not like proposed UI changes and find that in general as a vendor Zoho is rather unresponsive to feedback from its customers."

More Zoho Analytics cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"A highly cost-effective solution"

"I would rate it a five out of five in terms of the value received for the price charge."

"The tool's pricing is not unreasonable or non-competitive."

"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

"The price is reasonable; it's quite a bit lower than Tableau and Spotfire."

"Oracle Analytics Cloud's pricing is generally higher than that of other vendors."

"We pay on a monthly basis and it is $10 per user each month."

"Bottom line, the cost is really, really cheap compared to other solutions. Oracle has made a huge effort on the pricing."

More Oracle Analytics Cloud pricing and cost advice

"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."

"The price is high. The solution advertises that it provides products for 55 AED per user, but these products contain only the basic features. Most of the features are locked. The version of the product that includes Zoho Analytics costs around 199 AED per user per month."

"For one license the pricing is about $35 a user."

"The product's licensing is reasonable."

"This solution is reasonable as far as pricing is concerned."

"The product is expensive."

"Zoho Analytics costs $ 4,200 per month, billed yearly."

"The tool's pricing is similar to other Zoho applications and is affordable."
