Have saved significant operational costs and streamlined alert-driven analytics with customizable dashboards
I definitely see some disadvantages in Apache Superset, particularly in the tagging feature which is not up to the mark, creating a little bit of mess for the administrators. We work with a Role-Based Access Control feature in the product. I assess this feature as good; they have permissions which are in more plain English, but there is a little bit of convenience missed out because if I have to create a super user apart from admin, I need to add all the permissions manually.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's very easy, reliable, and trustable because it's an Apache open-source product."
"What I appreciate the most about Apache Superset is that it's free and easy to set up."
"When you click on any chart, you can apply the filter without any effort."
"It is a good visual solution tool in an open-source category."
"Being able to quickly build standard dashboards around relational data in Apache Superset provides tremendous visibility for everyone on the team."
"The main benefit I have seen from working with Apache Superset so far is the speed from discovery and SQL to making charts and dashboards, along with its customizability."
"The benefits I have seen from using Apache Superset for the business team are that they have been able to look at the numbers easily, log into the portal, and look at different dashboards, which are at different granularities."
"What I appreciate most about Apache Superset is its text search feature, including searching with small and capital letters."
"The ability to quickly search for and access relevant data is crucial."
"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."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"It has the best feature for data augmentation."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us. All employees can access it from anywhere. It is a big advantage for us."
"The most valuable features of the solution are dashboarding and data visualization."
"The features that I find to be the most valuable are the BAS (Business Analytics), the Narrate feature, and the auto-visualization."
"The AI/ML enablement is useful, as many reporting tools do not offer machine learning models as of now, without writing customized code."
 

Cons

"When comparing Apache Superset with Elasticsearch and Solar Search, it lacks some features that come with Elasticsearch, such as Kibana."
"Dark mode would be the main thing I would like; it does not really work because the chart text cannot be white in a dark mode setup, so it is not feasible."
"Building a full-fledged product or software as a service might be cumbersome due to performance limitations."
"With Apache Superset, we had some problems with the permissions when we had too many users."
"The platform's reporting feature needs enhancement."
"I definitely see some disadvantages in Apache Superset, particularly in the tagging feature which is not up to the mark, creating a little bit of mess for the administrators."
"Apache Superset could be improved by enhancing its interactivity and engagement capabilities."
"One potential area for improvement in Apache Superset is that it must be installed in a dedicated Docker image, which could be a limitation since the goal is to embed Apache Superset in a product offering."
"It is less scalable than Snowflake."
"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."
"The solution could be more flexible."
"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 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."
"One of the major issues is that Oracle Analytics Cloud is not user-friendly, requiring skilled people with proper certifications to work with it successfully."
"When you implement the product on a small scale, it doesn't generate any ROI."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Apache Superset has a three-year licensing model."
"Apache Superset is open-source and free."
"Apache Superset is an open-source solution."
"The price of Apache Superset is less than some of its competitors."
"The price is reasonable; it's quite a bit lower than Tableau and Spotfire."
"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."
"A highly cost-effective solution"
"We pay on a monthly basis and it is $10 per user each month."
"It is an expensive platform."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's pricing is generally higher than that of other vendors."
"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The product’s pricing is expensive. However, feature-wise, it fits the requirements of enterprise customers."
