"The ease of being able to get the data into BOARD is what makes it nice for people with a semi-IT background."
"we are able to easily export data. When directors need financial information, we can go in the system and export the data, then send it out so they have it ready and available. If they are not in the office, we can email it to them. In addition, all the managers are now more on top of their expenses and their budget."
"It is useful for self-analysis regarding company data and helps to find areas where we can improve."
"A lot of flexibility from the data modeling standpoint. It can add specific line items into our budget, for example, or if we want to make changes to the data model itself, we have that flexibility."
"Primary valuable features are its flexibility and versatility and, obviously, functionality goes along with that. Plus, it does that at a small footprint in the file servers, and does it very efficiently."
"Zoho Analytics's most valuable feature is the ability to provide excellent analytics through a single platform."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"We really like that it's user friendly and has a lot of combinations and charts. They're good compared to other tools. We used a free Elastic product, comparatively, this solution is good because of their support, UI, and connecting to databases is very easy."

"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."
"It's a very strong analytics tool."
"I would like an eLearning platform for BOARD."
"The one thing that I think we would like to see in terms of improvement of the application is the ability to print. It's fantastic to have all of these graphic visualization of data, but we're not able to very easily just print... From my perspective, if you can have a little "print" button and then you just click it and it would produce what's on the screen, that would be very helpful."
"It would be nice to be able to host your site and actually have BOARD be the driver of your site. So you could have anybody in your organization go to www.myorg.com, for example, and then go through what you allow them to go through. So rather than having to go through the application, to be able to go to actually host it to a website."
"It's very powerful, but there is also a big learning curve. It should be a little more intuitive."
"My analysts have used the technical support. Sometimes they have felt like they did not receive the answer that they needed, or you have to go and upgrade in order to address a problem. "
"It would be huge in the future if BOARD offered a lot more graphs and presentations, and it was a lot easier to use."
"The product can be improved by making it possible to know where cubes are used."
"If we could upload other data, e.g., pivot tables which can be done in BOARD already, that we have pre-existing and have that data distribute to more complex spreadsheets, I would like that going forward."
"There is a limitation that we cannot create more than 300 columns in a worksheet on Zoho Analytics."
"In terms of improvement, they have a limited number of graphs available in their store. They should come up with more graph style forms. They should have more charts and at the same time, you can't create panels like with Microsoft BA."
"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."
"It would be great to have more user input fields which can be used on dashboards."
"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."
"The customer service and support for this solution could be improved by faster response times."
"The hourly pricing needs improvement."
"A higher degree of artificial intelligence could be included in this solution. The data and overall insights could be improved."
