Featured Reviews

Muhammed Shafad - PeerSpot reviewer
Scalable platform with efficient data set creation features
It is a good visual solution tool in an open-source category. Our customers want to improve the business into a SaaS model. They analyze the telecom-based transaction data with SaaS, including the number of subscribers, usage of 4G and 5G networks, etc. The platform improved data analysis for our customers by providing a visualization library. We can drag visualization graphs to create weekly sessions. There is no need to implement any extra coding. It has no code interface allowing us to track the dimensions and measure the canvas. It automatically generates the chat once we select the graph. The most efficient features are data set creation and data manipulation. We can directly use the raw data table and summarize it dynamically by processing the data manipulation window. SQL Editor enhances the data scoring process, helping us write queries directly during dashboard discrepancy issues. We can store the query for future analysis as well. It enables a customizable integration with other data sources. The main benefit of using the product is the ability to access the data source without using any coding. Any user can create reports easily with minimal training. I recommend Apache Superset for customers who are considering open-source vendors. I rate it an eight out of ten.
Yogesh Kumar Mali - PeerSpot reviewer
An easy-to-set up solution that helps in the scheduling of reports and dashboards
A lot of integrations are available with Zoho Analytics. There is a limitation that we cannot create more than 300 columns in a worksheet on Zoho Analytics. The data can be in millions. There are some limitations on the reports that depend on the various combinations of data you get. So there is always an error that gets thrown out if you are building complex reports.

Pros

"When you click on any chart, you can apply the filter without any effort."
"The solution supports a rich set of charts and enables users to create their own dashboards."
"It is a good visual solution tool in an open-source category."
"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 no-code interface is the most valuable as it allows us to operate without constant support from the data engineering team, fostering a self-service environment."
"The integration interface is very easy to use and allows you to directly connect to a variety of APIs."
"We moved the data from Zoho Creator to Zoho Analytics and created reports."
"The solution’s dashboard is very good."
"The data source is the most valuable feature as it can perform any function."
"The front end of this solution including the graph generation using SQL has been most useful."
"We use the solution for financial and sales analytics. It brings data from our IT incident management tool. Hence, we have three business use cases for IT support, sales and financials."
"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 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

"With Apache Superset, we had some problems with the permissions when we had too many users."
"Apache Superset could be improved by enhancing its interactivity and engagement capabilities."
"Automation in terms of APIs for creating roles, and giving privileges to the user can be improved."
"Dynamic dashboarding could improve to enable smooth navigation when transitioning from a higher to a lower view, allowing for easy accessibility."
"The platform's reporting feature needs enhancement."
"The solution does not provide call center facilities for customer support."
"This solution does not support manufacturing facilities."
"The customer service and support for this solution could be improved by faster response times."
"The hourly pricing needs improvement."
"A higher degree of artificial intelligence could be included in this solution. The data and overall insights could be improved."
"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 tool needs to improve analysis and add more features."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Apache Superset has a three-year licensing model."
"The price of Apache Superset is less than some of its competitors."
"Apache Superset is an open-source solution."
"Apache Superset is open-source and free."

"The product's licensing is reasonable."
"It is very reasonable, and it gives me a good return on investment. Compared to other tools, it is the best choice in terms of pricing."
"The tool's pricing is similar to other Zoho applications and is affordable."
"I would recommend looking at your usage and whether the Zoho One license model would work for your organisation. It is very cost effective if you use other Zoho tools."
"I don't feel that price is an issue for this product."
"This solution is reasonable as far as pricing is concerned."
"I rate the tool's pricing seven out of ten. The licensing costs are yearly."
