"The ability to embed, and dynamically repeat, templates within each other is a very simple yet extremely powerful tool."
"To generate these same tabular formatted reports with a code-only solution would have taken a lot longer to implement than the Docmosis template-based approach. Docmosis templates were easier to design as we were able to use Microsoft Word to create them. The templates made it easy to make any changes to reports and provided flexibility in our design approach."
"Since our initial development, this feature has required very little maintenance. And when changes are requested, it is rather easy to change a Word document template and new staff can be quickly trained to modify a report."
"Globally, the ability to create document templates in several formats by using a rich syntax is simple and clear to understand."
"There is flexibility in laying out tables that is akin to UI front-end design."
"A new report’s template creation is very often manipulation of a user’s layout of a report. A report can be ready in a day or less, once stored procedures are created as per sections in the report."
"It's a very strong analytics tool."
"It provides insights into leads, information about the team and about various sales activities. The graphical representations in the form of charts is excellent."
"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."
"Ask Zia is a great feature that I use to quickly decide what improvements I need to make in order to present the data that I want to show."
"Zoho Analytics is the best software for giving reports to customers and we can create any report that is required."
"We moved the data from Zoho Creator to Zoho Analytics and created reports."
"The most valuable feature of Zoho Analytics is its connectivity with ERP systems and the functionality to set up different fields for leads."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Version control and restricted access to some users for template editing could be a useful addition."
"We are facing new challenges such as internationalization. The next big challenge will be to offer even more date formats and numbers that cover the majority of countries. It will be to also think about features, such as number to text conversion, or the reverse which is currently only available in English but is in great demand by our international customers."
"The challenge in usage when we developed the reports four years ago was the limited logic that can be applied to manipulate and display data. That functionality was largely transferred over to the database layer in creating the data output that was to be displayed."
"It would be great to have improved diagnostic and debugging tools. When report templates are complex, sometimes any minor modification needs to be thoroughly tested to ensure that it does not disrupt a previously designed template."
"The solution does not provide call center facilities for customer support."
"The hourly pricing needs improvement."
"There should be more types of graphics available for use in the reports."
"It would be great to have more user input fields which can be used on dashboards."
"The tool needs to improve analysis and add more features."
"The customer service and support for this solution could be improved by faster response times."
"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."
"The platform's pricing needs improvement."
