The New Home Of Prescriptive And Predictive Analytics!
Our business is a marketing, sales, operations, and installation business. We have 11 departments and all need to share data to create a single source of truth. We had data in Zoho CRM for our marketing and sales teams, and we also had data in Zoho Projects for our Operations and Installations team. By utilizing Zoho Analytics we were able to merge the data together into a single platform by using data syncing. With all the information contained within Analytics, we are able to report and visualize the front and back halves of the business model. Doing so allows us to gain deep insights into all the milestones of a customer's journey. We have been able to make smarter business decisions as a result of the information Zoho Analytics has provided which has to lead to our company making the INC 5000 list 2 years in a row.
- Allowing various types of data visualizations
- Creating reports and dashboards that can be easily shared and accessible online
- Deliver scheduled reports via email to various email groups
- Sync with 3rd party software, such as Google Drive, to pull in data tables
- With so many folders in Reports, it would be nice to have a collapse all folders option
- A trouble tickets tracker would be helpful to keep up with various case numbers in a central place
- The support can be difficult to get a hold of at times for real time assistance

Great way to get started digging into your data
We use Zoho Analytics primarily to query data for Zoho Desk and do reports that fall outside of the built-in Zoho Desk reporting. We have been recently utilizing it to do more complex charts showing the types of helpdesk calls that we are getting and to break down the top problems to submit to the product managers.
- The built in AI (Zia) can often give you a quick report just by using English words.
- The ability to include data sources from multiple silos helps produce reports with the big picture
- Default reports/dashboards give a wide range of information without having to customize.
- I am confused about some of the filtering dropdowns and why almost duplicate reports act differently for the filters.
- The publishing of reports seems a little confusing in the area of allowing access if you are authenticated to the Zoho Desk.
We are using Zoho Analytics to collect data and analytics from our company, as well as other companies, to know how the market is doing in real-time. What I like most about this software is the live connection of external data and pixel reports and its customizable dashboards, to tailor it to our brand.
- This software allows us to print the report in pdf format, which makes it easy for us to view and share the reports with clients and partners, without problems and file incompatibility.
- It also allows uploading files from various sources such as Excel, Oracle, text files such as CSV, HTML, etc., as well as receiving and sending data from the cloud or local database, for the creation of reports.
- It allows for the publication of the reports made on the company's website, blogs, and applications so that everyone can be informed of the data and analysis.
- Can be intimidating software, especially for people who don't have a lot of coding knowledge, so it takes some time to learn.
- I would like to see more help desk support or instructional tutorials to better guide us in the use of the software.
- I would also like them to present templates to create reports more automatically and quickly.

Zoho - Helps you visualize better
It is widely used for data visualization purposes but we have generated data tables as well. The graphical user interface (GUI) helps in creating both tables and dashboards very easy and simple. The AI engine also helpful which creates a structure of the dashboard in a minute obviously the entire skeleton cannot be used as it is but one can always modify those to suit fit the requirement.
- Dashboards
- Data tables
- Merging files
- Validation
- Limitation on data refresh frequency
- Challenges in merging data sets
- When the data gets refresh regularly, adding manual entries becomes challenging
Zoho Analytics enabled me to prospect better by providing details and scoops about the company I wanted to approach for my B2B sales prospecting. It provides information and details about the targeted companies and people who are being targeted. These insights can be used for accelerating the leads. The job of prospecting is not an easy one and any tool which eases it is most welcomed.
- Sales insights
- Shows sales contact details
- Show Contacts interests
- Shows targeted companies insights
- Information validity
- Historical information removal
- Targeted lead contact accuracy

AI based reporting and Dashboard made easier and intuitive for all Business use-case
Traditional IT Operation tools capture alerts from all the Infrastructure and then build Reports and Dashboards. This is one of the critical components in an organization NOC. Likewise, several other tools capture different metrics, which leads to several different reports, quite difficult to manage. Henceforth, we utilize advanced and simple to use "Zoho Analytics" to mitigate these shortcomings, centralize our reporting and dashboards from a unified platform.
- Faster search result within Dashboard and/or reports , thanks to the AI
- Easy to build Business charts, options to select different metrics, meaningful end-result
- Capability to share our analysis of data with remote employees, in just few clicks
- Our organization as well varied partners we worked with, they like the simplicity to navigate and build reports, dashboards at a shorter pace. This excludes operation cost and faster analysis of availability, the performance of KPIs. So far, we are yet to see any features that might feel challenging. Overall product support is very prompt and updates as well roadmap are notified to customers, very transparent.

Zoho Reports Value
We use Zoho to review enterprise request and support tickets from business and IT partners.

Feature rich and well designed
Zoho Analytics is used by my business to offer a wide range of reporting and data insights. One example is a customer needed a bespoke weekly recurring doorstep delivery solution, the scope of the business sat outside a subscription platform or regular e-commerce platform. Using Zoho Analytics and I's deep integration with other Zoho platforms I was able to build and deploy a system that runs their production, packing and delivery from a central location.
- Dashboards.
- User interface.
- Data source integrations.
- SQL can be limiting.
- White labeling on lower plans.

Zoho: making report generation a breeze
Zoho reports are used by our Sales division to pull out reports. It helps to give a visual representation of sales figures, which were previously only seen as numbers.

- Various types of graphical representation, including the tunnel graph.
- Works seamlessly with most databases.
- Dashboard feels a little too cramped.
- Dashboard alignments feel a little off.

Perfect tool for businesses to make right decision at right time
It is an excellent tool to generate reports which can help to analyze and make business decisions. <br>We are using Zoho Analytics to generate reports from Zoho Sprints.

Great for reporting on other Zoho apps, difficult to use for integrating with external data
My organization has used Zoho Analytics to create custom analytics dashboards for digital marketing (importing data from Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.) and time tracking (integrating with Zoho Projects). Zoho Analytics is accessed across my whole organization, but only the operations department sets up/manages dashboards due to the complexity of the platform.
- Tons of customization options.
- Sleek dashboard templates.
- Integrates well with other Zoho products.
- Difficult to use compared to other dashboard platforms.
- API connections to non-Zoho sources are not reliable.

Zoho Reporting to the rescue!
Different departments are using Zoho Reports for different tasks. It's been very helpful for us for testing purposes against our own APIs as well as for aggregating data from multiple sources. Our executives use it for heavy data analysis to help create models for both financial and forecasting purposes. Our technology department uses it more for testing.
- Automation - The ability to pull in an API feed using a scheduled task makes it as easy as "set it and forget it".
- Scalability and performance - We have never run into an issue with too much data, it always performs well.
- Ease of use - The easy to use interface makes it usable for all levels of technological sense.
- Wizards - It might be helpful to have some cookie cutter type wizards to help new (and less experienced) users get started quickly.
- Tutorials and Help - One thing that I find is that some of my team who are not as tech savvy end up coming to us to ask questions as they can't seem to find answers to their questions easily.
