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 is a good visual solution tool in an open-source category."
"What I appreciate the most about Apache Superset is that it's free and easy to set up."
"What I appreciate most about Apache Superset is its text search feature, including searching with small and capital letters."
"It's very easy, reliable, and trustable because it's an Apache open-source product."
"When you click on any chart, you can apply the filter without any effort."
"I see savings from using Apache Superset in both time and money, particularly with the cost reduced by roughly 99% compared to Tableau where we previously paid almost 50k annually."
"The most valuable feature of Apache Superset is the easy way to configure dashboards as reports or analyses and it's easy to use and intuitive. Users do not need a lot of training to use the solution."
"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."
"The product is easily customized."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud allowed us to deliver faster analytics and to have a self-secured, self-tuning, self-maintained platform."
"Its scalability is really what makes it stand out; you can on the fly increase the processing capacity of your instance for as long as you need it and then bring it back to whatever minimum setting you had, all with no downtime, which is very impressive."
"Oracle Analytics DV is amazing as it's giving the power to the users without involving IT."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is not very user-friendly, however, it is robust and capable of performing a wide range of tasks."
"I've discovered that the new layout of this product makes Docker sharing, machine learning support, and data backups more efficient. Unlike the older method of linking physical, pre-logical, and presentation layers separately, the new interface simplifies this process. Additionally, the integration of databases and machine learning is seamless, with the new visualization approach being particularly beautiful and highly beneficial."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us, as all employees can access it from anywhere, which is a big advantage for us."
"We use Analytics because we have a model for it which can be easily customized, and implementation time can be reduced because of this."
 

Cons

"With Apache Superset, we had some problems with the permissions when we had too many users."
"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."
"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."
"Dynamic dashboarding could improve to enable smooth navigation when transitioning from a higher to a lower view, allowing for easy accessibility."
"The scalability of Apache Superset has been one of the challenges for us. We deployed it onto a bigger machine because as the users grew, we experienced a delay in data retrieval."
"The platform's reporting feature needs enhancement."
"Building a full-fledged product or software as a service might be cumbersome due to performance limitations."
"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."
"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 product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
"When we have, for example, a table with low performance, we have several issues with drawing some graphics in the Oracle cloud."
"This product does not support custom charts in the visualization."
"We did not have a positive experience with technical support."
"One area of improvement is associated with more connectors needing to be added such as Microsoft OneDrive, Teradata and a few others. I think the list is limited to the top ones now."
"It should simplify data connectivity and modeling, making data extraction more streamlined and adaptable for diverse use cases."
"When you want to scale up and improve the computing power, it becomes extremely costly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Apache Superset is an open-source solution."
"Apache Superset is open-source and free."
"Apache Superset has a three-year licensing model."
"The price of Apache Superset is less than some of its competitors."
"Bottom line, the cost is really, really cheap compared to other solutions. Oracle has made a huge effort on the pricing."
"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The tool's pricing is not unreasonable or non-competitive."
"We pay on a monthly basis and it is $10 per user each month."
"The price is reasonable; it's quite a bit lower than Tableau and Spotfire."
"It is an expensive platform."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's pricing is generally higher than that of other vendors."
"I would rate it a five out of five in terms of the value received for the price charge."
