"This solution has simplified getting to and understanding our data, no matter where it is housed."
"What I really love about the software is that I have never struggled in implementing it for complex business requirements. It is good for highly sophisticated and specialized statistics in the areas that some people tend to call artificial intelligence. It is used for everything that involves visual presentation and analysis of highly sophisticated statistics for forecasting and other purposes."
"It's relatively simple to create basic dashboards and reports."
"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."
"Data handling is one of the best features of SAS Visual Analytics."
"The alert generation feature also helps in sending out ad hoc messages to the business users if business thresholds have been crossed."

"We've found the product to be stable and reliable."
"Great for handling complex data models."

"QlikView's UI could be more user-friendly."

"They could provide a user-friendly analysis process rather than specialized IT resource code."
"SAS Visual Analytics could be more user-friendly."
"The installation process can be a bit complex."
"There are a few little things that are predefined and can be done out of the box immediately. There is no business intelligence application that is predefined, which is something some customers or prospects would love to have. Small and mid-sized companies would struggle with it because they prefer something standard that has been predefined by somebody else."
"I haven't come across any missing features."
"The product is expensive and needs the integration of more languages."
"The solution is a little weak at the front end."
"The licensing ends up being more expensive than other options."
"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."
