We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Data Studio integrates seamlessly with other Google products, and we can use it with other APIs if we like.""The company dashboard is useful because we could share it via a link as a reminder for everyone to check it weekly. We observed the progress of our portfolio from last week to the current week, allowing us to compare revenues.""The ability to integrate with a great variety of data sources.""I find it favorable regarding speed of development, ease of building, and flexibility.""Valuable features include advanced integrated analysis and easy implementation.""The ability to design complex data models and equations.""I am impressed with the tool's scheduling mechanism, refresh mechanism, and different types of charts.""This has improved our organization by allowing people to see their data and develop visualizations themselves."

"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.""Zoho Analytics is the best software for giving reports to customers and we can create any report that is required.""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 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.""We moved the data from Zoho Creator to Zoho Analytics and created reports.""The initial setup is straightforward."

Cons
"Panels are not as easy to use as other data extraction UIs.""It's not yet a replacement for a complete BI tool.""There are issues with integration and I encountered limits and warnings, especially with my pivot table size.""When you physically install a product on one machine instead of the cloud, you have a better visibility, best icon quality, etc.. It's more of an issue with how we are adapting to the transition. We are still in the early moments of using this tool, and we need to go deeper to discover some improvements.""Other tools might be worth considering if you need more advanced features or support for a larger user base.""Insisting on forums, blogs and community outreach in communications, and posting videos on an established calendar would be useful.""The tool should come up with data modeling layer features that are present in other products like Power BI.""There is a significant degree of sophistication required to compete with Tableau or Cognos."

More Google Data Studio Cons →

"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.""I like the solution's Query Table feature which helps me write SQL queries. We can get data from different tables and then use it to create reports.""A higher degree of artificial intelligence could be included in this solution. The data and overall insights could be improved.""There is a limitation that we cannot create more than 300 columns in a worksheet on Zoho Analytics.""It would be great to have more user input fields which can be used on dashboards.""The support for Zoho Analytics is pathetic.""I have a lower rating when it comes to Zoho Analytics. The tool has poor performance. It needs to improve the dimensions and measures.""This solution does not support manufacturing facilities."

  • "I would recommend looking at your usage and whether the Zoho One license model would work for your organisation. It is very cost effective if you use other Zoho tools."
  • "An exact ROI is hard to calculate. However, we have definitely made sales that would have been much harder, or unlikely, as a result of the speed with which we were able to prepare comprehensive analysis."
  • "I don't feel that price is an issue for this product."
  • "It is very reasonable, and it gives me a good return on investment. Compared to other tools, it is the best choice in terms of pricing."
  • "This solution is reasonable as far as pricing is concerned."
  • "The price is high. The solution advertises that it provides products for 55 AED per user, but these products contain only the basic features. Most of the features are locked. The version of the product that includes Zoho Analytics costs around 199 AED per user per month."
  • "For one license the pricing is about $35 a user."
  • "Zoho Analytics costs $ 4,200 per month, billed yearly."
