As our system is completely set up of a mainframe system that's why this software is quite smooth and Specially built for these environments. It also provides us consistent high performance but is little costly at the same time. The software is not beginners friendly at all and will need a proper training before installation to use it in a long run

Clear Analytics has almost all the features which are mostly required by the organizations for their data analytics and transformation activities. Clear Analytics is built on the support of a parallel query engine which makes it handle large volume requests and also provides optimized results. However, every solution has some limitations, Clear Analytics lacks advanced features such as Predictive Analytics which is a very demanding feature in the market as most organizations are adopting AI/ML automation for their businesses. Also, it needs to add a lot of advanced visualizations so that the user has the choice of selection. Overall a good solution to be recommended.
