"It's quite easy to learn and to progress with SAS from an end-user perspective."
"Improvement-wise, I feel the solution must be more robust since it is not exactly ready to handle large data."
"The product is expensive."
"The product must be more transparent."
"Einstein Analytics could incorporate something like SFIA 8 to help users understand the underlying skill sets."
"The product is natively integrated into the Salesforce ecosystem. You also need a CRM license. It should be more flexible with other platforms."
"There are some offerings like Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, and Marketing Cloud that have very useful online learning options. There need to be more avenues for self-learning with this particular solution. That would be useful."
"If I could improve Tableau CRM I would make it as powerful as Tableau. Tableau CRM is more integrated and it's on the web, but it has less functionality. It is lacking functionality at this time."
"I would advise others not to customize because they rolled out the newer versions, which are every six months. There had to be some significant testing and verification that happened. It is important to have a strong third-party provider that is very experienced. We used Deloitte, but we evaluated Accenture, KPMG, and IBM, but we decided on Deloitte and that was a good decision for us. Having a partner who has a center of excellence or experts that could give you a lot of the tips that they've learned could jumpstart your deployment and stick to the standards."

"The solution is a little weak at the front end."
"The product is expensive and needs the integration of more languages."
"The charts and tables could use better sorting, primarily using other variables than the ones on the figure. If they could implement views like in the older version (previous to Viya), it would be very nice."
"SAS Visual Analytics could be more user-friendly."
"Better connectivity with other data origins, better visualization, and the ability to create KPIs directly would all help."
"Colours used on report objects"
"There is room for improvement in anti-money laundering prevention and operation monitoring, as well as operation monitoring surveillance."
