Find out in this report how the two Reporting solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The Web Editing capabilities allow us to grant end users enough capabilities for them to do self-serve discovery without the added cost of needing to get everyone desktop licenses."
"One of the most valuable features is that the solution allows users to build interactive dashboards. This allows the end user to modify the criteria or the filtering if need be. As far as for my personal use as a QA Engineer, I really value how extensive their API document support has been."
"The solution is configurable and flexible. We can customize the dashboards and configure the interface the way that we want. The data can be manipulated and arranged in different ways, such as columns."
"It's a very good, flexible product, and it's easy to learn."
"It is easy to adapt visualizers to have interactive conversations among decision-makers."
"Tableau is a fantastic tool that provides impressive dashboards and customized reports."
"Tableau has many good features. It is user-friendly, has a simple-to-use interface, and has a customizable dashboard."
"The initial setup is quick and easy and you don't need special outside assistance to set everything up."
"We moved the data from Zoho Creator to Zoho Analytics and created reports."
"It provides insights into leads, information about the team and about various sales activities. The graphical representations in the form of charts is excellent."
"The integration interface is very easy to use and allows you to directly connect to a variety of APIs."
"Scheduling of reports and dashboards is the most valuable feature of Zoho Analytics."
"The data source is the most valuable feature as it can perform any function."
"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."
"It's a very strong analytics tool."
"Zoho Analytics is the best software for giving reports to customers and we can create any report that is required."
"Areas for improvement would be visualization and augmented analytics. In the next release, I would like to see automated insights from the data added to the dashboard."
"Maybe the price could be a bit cheaper, especially if you're a personal developer that uses Tableau just to explore smaller data sets and you're not a company or something like that."
"The tool's OpenAI integration was announced last year. However, it is late. Tableau is a good solution for end customers. However, there are some concerns regarding the stability and performance of its server architecture, including SaaS services. The server side appears unstable, and performance issues are noticeable, often accompanied by unclear error messages."
"Formatting controls could use some improvement."
"I would like Tableau to handle geospatial data better in terms of multiple layers and shapefiles."
"In the cloud sometimes the performance is a little bit slow."
"Tableau is an end-to-end analytics platform, and it is doing a pretty good job in terms of connecting to the data and analyzing it. It can, however, do better in terms of data management and the ETL features, which are not on the advanced analytics or machine learning side. Tableau Prep is where users would want to see more advancements. They can improve Tableau Prep, which is an analytic platform tool for data cleansing. People who work with data spend most of their time curating the data. Cleaning up the data and getting it ready for analysis is what takes the most time. If Tableau can invest more time in improving the Tableau Prep platform, it would be great. Previously, Tableau didn't have the functionality for writing to a database. So, you couldn't really alter the database tables and write to your database, but they fixed that in one of the very recent releases. However, it isn't really advanced and should be improved."
"From the developer perspective, the data connection handling the target data set is what most needs to be improved."
"This solution does not support manufacturing facilities."
"A higher degree of artificial intelligence could be included in this solution. The data and overall insights could be improved."
"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 navigation on the interface is not intuitive."
"The solution does not provide call center facilities for customer support."
"There should be more types of graphics available for use in the reports."
"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."
"The tool needs to improve analysis and add more features."
