"The tool's most valuable feature is its dashboard."
"Zoho Analytics is the best software for giving reports to customers and we can create any report that is required."
"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."

Cons

"It needs more presentation/charting capabilities and integration with GIS."
"This solution does not support manufacturing facilities."
"The improvement needed is regarding the number of API calls. Currently, Zoho Analytics only allows us to update data hourly. It would be much better to have updates more frequently every half an hour."
"A higher degree of artificial intelligence could be included in this solution. The data and overall insights could be improved."
"The platform's pricing needs improvement."
"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."
"It would be great to have more user input fields which can be used on dashboards."
"The solution does not provide call center facilities for customer support."
"The tool needs to improve analysis and add more features."
