Empowers your entire organization to ask any question of any data—across any environment, on any device
The migration of older dash tools from the classic interface of Oracle BI prior to OAS launch to the newer Data Visualization and Oracle Analytics Cloud interfaces, including dashboards and metadata, is currently a cumbersome process. Improvements in this area would be highly beneficial. Additionally, the administration of the cloud, particularly the startup of services and linking of the WebLogic server and integrated components, takes longer than desired. In today's enterprise landscape, waiting forty minutes for the server to be operational is quite lengthy; ideally, this process should take a maximum of four minutes. It would be excellent to incorporate metadata management as an integral part of the Oracle Analytics Cloud. When dealing with integrated data from various sources, tracking data lineage and the entire data life cycle, from sources to report development and the mapping of reports to specific dashboards, should be seamlessly managed within the Oracle Analytics Cloud. This would eliminate the need for additional tools. Drawing a comparison, tools like Tableau have a feature enabling metadata management, making it easier to trace the complete data lineage of reports. Managing over seven hundred and thirty-six business dashboards, the metadata management capability within Tableau simplified the process of understanding how reports were developed, including details like associated tables, users, linked views, materialized views, data segmentations, ETL jobs, and the data warehouse stages. Enhancing metadata tracking within the Oracle Analytics Cloud layout would facilitate easy and practical management of the complete data life cycle, encompassing user accessibility and report permissions.

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.

"The technical support services are good."
"The most valuable features of the solution are dashboarding and data visualization."
"The technical support is excellent, and they respond quickly."
"It's robust. It has the ability to handle massive amounts. After reporting has been developed, there is an ease of use or a user-friendly interface for a trained workforce."
"The specific capability I find important in Oracle Analytics Cloud is that it allows the basic user to easily drag and drop data. I also like that the solution allows the user to decide what to measure and what to see in the reports."
"It has the best feature for data augmentation."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"It provides insights into leads, information about the team and about various sales activities. The graphical representations in the form of charts is excellent."
"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."
"The front end of this solution including the graph generation using SQL has been most useful."
"Zoho Analytics's most valuable feature is the ability to provide excellent analytics through a single platform."
"We moved the data from Zoho Creator to Zoho Analytics and created reports."
"Ask Zia is a great feature that I use to quickly decide what improvements I need to make in order to present the data that I want to show."

"The tool's most valuable feature is its dashboard."
 

Cons

"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."
"Its machine learning and visualization capabilities can be improved. There should be more visualization options."
"It is less scalable than Snowflake."
"It should simplify data connectivity and modeling, making data extraction more streamlined and adaptable for diverse use cases."
"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."
"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."
"The product could benefit from increased flexibility compared to other vendors."
"It would be great to have more user input fields which can be used on dashboards."
"A higher degree of artificial intelligence could be included in this solution. The data and overall insights could be improved."
"The tool needs to improve analysis and add more features."
"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 customer service and support for this solution could be improved by faster response times."
"The navigation on the interface is not intuitive."
"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."
"The platform's pricing needs improvement."
