We performed a comparison between Domo 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."The fact that you can add any data source is valuable. The entire data handling suite they have, all the apps, etc., is pretty amazing. One of the key things, not being a techie or a data-warehouse guy, is that you can connect data sources, and do all kinds of pretty amazing things."
"The ability to create custom connectors was useful because you never know, with customers, what platform they want to utilize or what data they have. It gave us a lot of flexibility in being able to bring data in from different places."
"With ETL transformations in SQL lists, you often write a lot of queries. You have to build a bunch of code for the data. With Domo, one of the pieces we have is Magic ETL. In Magic ETL, you don't need to write code. You don't need to be a specialist in SQL or any database query language."
"I mostly see it as an ETL which has many system connectors. It does a good job of ETL."
"The data certification feature, where the admin user can put a certified stamp on a data source so that other users can know that that is the correct and accurate data flow or data source to use, is a good feature."
"One feature which I have found to be very interesting is the Beast manager, where you can create calculated fields. They are shared in one common repository so someone else can use the same calculated fields; they don't have to rewrite or reinvent the APIs."
"We've worked with all the features of Domo. Among the most important are Pivot and Sumo Cards. We can use drill-down from the top-most level with a click, generating charts."
"In general, Domo is very powerful and very easy to use, relatively speaking."
"Great for handling complex data models."
"We've found the product to be stable and reliable."
"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."
"Simplifies report designs and quickly displays tables and graphs."
"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 a stable, reliable product."
"It integrates well with SAS, making it simple and quick for developers."
"The speed to display charts and react to users' choices is great."
"It's quite slow. We are using about 2,000,000 rows of data. Creating certain reports takes almost a couple of minutes, which should not be the case."
"In Tableau, you can create virtually any kind of visualization. Based on your creativity, you can create a visualization on a human body structure, you can create a visualization on anything that you want. But Domo is limited to a few kinds of visualization views: standard things like bar, pie, and some other charts... I would like to see them add new views for presenting the data in the visualization space."
"If your ETL runs more than 24 hours, it always fails because we are logging a lot of historical data, and there is a restriction on the amount of data (in rows) that you can run. The technical support has not found a solution for this yet."
"One of the improvements that could be made is related to improved storage options."
"I would like to see more flexibility in their pricing structure. The trend is moving from database pricing to a user-license pricing model. That would be a benefit if they wanted to reevaluate their pricing structure."
"If Domo had a Copilot feature, you could interact with the graphs and talk to the graphs and tables."
"The forecasting feature, the regression features, and the Python libraries could all be improved. They're all in beta."
"There's a learning curve before you can get used to the solution."
"A bit more flexibility in the temperatization will be helpful."
"The visualization should be better in SAS Visual Analytics. It is easy to use but when compared to other solutions it is lacking and the support is not very good."
"In Brazil, there are few documents, courses, and other resources for studying and implementing the tool."
"The solution should improve its graphics."
"Better connectivity with other data origins, better visualization, and the ability to create KPIs directly would all help."
"It is not as mature as competitors such as Tableau and QlikView."
"The reason we haven't rolled it out across the board is due to the fact that the licensing is so expensive."
"SAS Visual Analytics could be more user-friendly."
