We performed a comparison between SAS Visual Analytics and Zoho 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."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 quite easy to learn and to progress with SAS from an end-user perspective."
"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."
"The flexibility of the configuration is valuable to me."
"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."
"The alert generation feature also helps in sending out ad hoc messages to the business users if business thresholds have been crossed."
"Simplifies report designs and quickly displays tables and graphs."
"The product is stable, reliable, and scalable."
"It's a very strong analytics tool."
"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 data source is the most valuable feature as it can perform any function."
"It provides insights into leads, information about the team and about various sales activities. The graphical representations in the form of charts is excellent."
"We use the solution for financial and sales analytics. It brings data from our IT incident management tool. Hence, we have three business use cases for IT support, sales and financials."
"The most valuable feature of Zoho Analytics is its connectivity with ERP systems and the functionality to set up different fields for leads."
"Zoho Analytics's most valuable feature is the ability to provide excellent analytics through a single platform."
"The integration interface is very easy to use and allows you to directly connect to a variety of APIs."
"The reason we haven't rolled it out across the board is due to the fact that the licensing is so expensive."
"It is not as mature as competitors such as Tableau and QlikView."
"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."
"SAS Visual Analytics could be more user-friendly."
"Colours used on report objects"
"The charts and tables could use better sorting, primarily using other variables than the ones on the figure. If they could implement views like in the older version (previous to Viya), it would be very nice."
"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."
"It would be great to have more user input fields which can be used on dashboards."
"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."
"The platform's pricing needs improvement."
"The support for Zoho Analytics is pathetic."
"There is a limitation that we cannot create more than 300 columns in a worksheet on Zoho Analytics."
"The hourly pricing needs improvement."
"The tool needs to improve analysis and add more features."
"The solution's tasks and project management tools are weaker than those of its competitors."
