We performed a comparison between SAP Analytics Cloud and Zoho Analytics based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of SAP Analytics Cloud is its integration with SAP."
"The solution is stable."
"It's easy to connect Analytics Cloud with other SAP solutions, and it's also effortless to deploy. You don't need much technical skill to set it up. It's as easy as setting up a tablet. I said tablet before. It's very easy to actually set up."
"Offers both business intelligence as well as inbuilt AI and machine learning capabilities."
"Its user-friendliness is valuable. It is a product for end-users and not for IT, which is an advantage."
"The most valuable feature of the tool is machine learning."
"In the data warehouse, you're free to make changes. You can make everything text, meaning it's always a string. Even numbers appear as text, giving you the flexibility to work with all columns."
"Provides rich features for developing automated reports and dashboards."
"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."
"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 moved the data from Zoho Creator to Zoho Analytics and created reports."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Zoho Analytics is the best software for giving reports to customers and we can create any report that is required."
"It's a very strong analytics tool."
"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 seems like there's a problem with the tool's licenses. If there are a lot of users, like 200, who only use the solution once a year, paying for a full-year license for each user is expensive. There's no option for users who only use the solution occasionally."
"An area for improvement in SAP Analytics Cloud is its planning feature because it's not that efficient when compared to BPC. Another area for improvement in the solution is the difficulty in building reports or dashboards, particularly if you don't have proper knowledge of the BI system. SAP Analytics Cloud technical support also needs improvement."
"There is no direct connector from SAP to Redshift, so we are required to use a third-party product that was recommended by SAP."
"Technical support could be more helpful and responsive."
"The price, integration, and modeling capabilities could be better. I have to use an integration engine to integrate our products and databases. SAP Analytics Cloud is made specifically for KPIs and business intelligence. The modeling capabilities are kind of poor. You always have to model the data and then present it visually in SAP Analytics Cloud. In the next release, I would like to have a lite version for planning to create scenarios quickly. For me personally, planning is the most complicated feature of SAP Analytics Cloud."
"SAP Analytics Cloud requires a lot of coding and I would like the coding to be somewhat minimal."
"Some algorithms are complex and can't be processed by just tagging the data and expecting results."
"The scope is limited to a few accounts."
"The platform's pricing needs improvement."
"The navigation on the interface is not intuitive."
"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."
"It would be great to have more user input fields which can be used on dashboards."
"This solution does not support manufacturing facilities."
"The solution does not provide call center facilities for customer support."
"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."
