"The solution effectively integrates with third-party products."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"We do you use Oracle support. We've been paying for an Oracle support subscription for four or five years, and not one ticket has ever been logged. When I came in, I've encouraged the team to ask Oracle questions. They do get back quite quickly. Their support is good. Working with our account managers, if I need to escalate anything, I can speak to them and they escalate the call. I've got that ecosystem working quite well. That does work for us."

"It's easy to use for business analysts."
"The most valuable feature is the openness of the solution. It helps us integrate some of our clients."

"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...The solution's initial setup was straightforward."

"It provides insights into leads, information about the team and about various sales activities. The graphical representations in the form of charts is excellent."
"The front end of this solution including the graph generation using SQL has been most useful."
"We moved the data from Zoho Creator to Zoho Analytics and created reports."
"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 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."

"Quality of support varies."
"The dashboard could be improved and include additional features."
"In terms of data modeling, it could be simplified. Sometimes, it seems complicated. Also, the response time for data set refreshes could be faster to enhance the user experience."
"In the on-premises version, the feature for connecting and selecting the data between the databases looks a bit cumbersome, but I am not sure. The person who is using it takes a lot of time to design a data warehouse. When I ask him why is it taking this long, I get a response that this is something that he has to design, and there are different tools that are available. He has to write the ETL and design the warehouse according to the customer's requirement, which takes a lot of time. Its visualization should be enhanced, and there should be a feature where you can easily create your custom data warehouse."
"It was a little bit tedious to install a new release."
"The ability to migrate from one version to another, such as doing so from version 11 to an upgraded 12 of Oracle business environment, can be difficult."

"Customer service/technical support gets five out of 10. Sometimes good, sometimes bad."
"Oracle OBIEE can improve the ease of use. It is a lot to learn and it could be made easier."
"Implementation is cumbersome and requires expertise."
"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 platform's pricing needs improvement."
"The solution's tasks and project management tools are weaker than those of its competitors."
"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."
"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."
"I have a lower rating when it comes to Zoho Analytics. The tool has poor performance. It needs to improve the dimensions and measures."
"The hourly pricing needs improvement."
"The customer service and support for this solution could be improved by faster response times."
