We performed a comparison between Oracle Analytics Cloud and SAS Visual Analytics based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Visualization solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"The most valuable features of the solution are dashboarding and data visualization."
"This is a stable and scalable solution."
"It's really an enterprise solution. It has a dashboard, like standard dashboarding functionality. It also has reporting capabilities for producing pixel-perfect reports, bursting large volumes of a document if you need to. It has interactive data discovery functionality, which you would use to explore your data, bring your own data, and merge it with maybe the data from an enterprise data warehouse to get new insights from the pre-existing data. It has machine learning embedded in the solution. If you're new to machine learning, it's a really good way to get into it, because it's all within this platform, and it's really easy to use."
"The features that I find to be the most valuable are the BAS (Business Analytics), the Narrate feature, and the auto-visualization."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's most valuable feature is its visualization."
"Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly."
"A valuable feature is the speed of the solution."
"The most solution's notable aspect, in my view, is the ability to integrate various data sources and harness advanced technologies such as machine learning and artificial intelligence. This helps with quality assurance processes."
"Visual Analytics is very easy to use. I use Visual Analytics for all the typical use cases except text mining. I used it to analyze data and monitor statistics, not text mining. I also use it for data visualization as well as creating interactive dashboards and infographics."
"Data handling is one of the best features of SAS Visual Analytics."
"Quick deployment to dashboards and analytics features (using SAS Visual Statistics and Enterprise Guide). Easy to create a simple forecast and discover business insights using segmentation tools."
"It's a stable, reliable product."
"The flexibility of the configuration is valuable to me."
"Great for handling complex data models."
"I believe that the possibilities for exploring data and formulating visual results are quite good because it allows the business analyst to have different perspectives on the data."
"The price of the solution could be lower."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."
"The implementation of generative AI and machine learning should improve"
"This solution could be more adaptable in its application."
"The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
"Its FAW feature has limitations in terms of usage."
"The deployment isn't smooth. Deploying Visual Analytics on the cloud takes a lot of work, or you can use some providers that give you SAS as a service. For example, there is a provider called SaasNow. They host SAS Visual Analytics and the license. You can buy the license and deploy it there without the hassle of installation because deploying the software isn't easy."
"The reason we haven't rolled it out across the board is due to the fact that the licensing is so expensive."
"There are scalability issues. It depends on the data volume and number of end-users. VA requires a lot of hardware resources to move volumes of data."
"It is not as mature as competitors such as Tableau and QlikView."
"I haven't come across any missing features."
"The installation process can be a bit complex."
"Better connectivity with other data origins, better visualization, and the ability to create KPIs directly would all help."
"SAS Visual Analytics could improve by making it more accessible for users outside the organization."
