Zoho Analytics (formerly Zoho Reports) is way easier to view, read, and interpret data from Salesforce once Zoho's integration is set up. Cross Object functionality of reporting and view-ability of the information is a lot cleaner in Zoho Analytics (formerly Zoho Reports) than trying to fumble through Salesforce to project and read the same information. It is a lot easier to find what you're looking for in Zoho Analytics (formerly Zoho Reports), once the connection is established.

Zoho Analytics can be used for your own business, for analyzing sales or website data, newsletter subscribers, etc., or also for other businesses with the embedded analytics option. In either case, almost any business could benefit from using this software.

If you're looking at having powerful dashboards, [Zoho Analytics (formerly Zoho Reports)] is the way to go. It is very easy to use and can create quite sophisticated reports given the ease and speed of us. Capability to obtain aggregated stats without programming is really good.

There are some integrations that are not available, so using it would depend on where you getting your data from and what is easier for your business. However, if you use any other Zoho products, it makes it super simple to integrate everything because the data is already there. If this is the case, its a no brainer.

I have been recommending Zoho for small businesses and nonprofits as an easy way to view all data in one place. It simplified business processes and greatly improves controls by automating the validity and completeness of review reports.

It's very helpful for small companies with a limited budget to perform some data analysis and visualization. It's probably super helpful if you are tied into the Zoho ecosphere for your other business applications, although we are not in that position. It's also great that Zoho requires no on-prem installed component, for people without access to IT support and limited rights to install applications. Because you will eventually run into charting limitations, if you have high expectations and IT support, however, many people are going to be happier with Tableau from the point of view of options.

Please note that my ratings are based on the Basic plan, so there are features Zoho has that I will not rate because, at this level, they are too limited to be practical.

If you're an early-stage startup without the resources needed to build out your own custom marketing stack, Zoho allows you to cobble together a great analytics process. There are limitations to data size though, so it doesn't feel like a solution for scale.

I believe most business intelligence needs and reporting are a good fit for Zoho Analytics. Perhaps only mega big databases might require previous scrubbing or selection/creation of views for them to be adequately handled in Zoho Analytics.

When you need to put data from a NoSQL database to a reporting system, it's pretty easy in Zoho Analytics compared to its competitors. Apart from this if you want to push only relevant data Zoho has inbuild files where we can specify the query and they will only pull the relevant data. We can have multiple workspaces using which we can analyze problems from different departments separately.

Scenarios where it perfectly suits: if you use another Zoho software. It already provides hundreds of dashboards and reports and the integration is extremely easy. Scenarios where it is less appropriate or differentiated: if you don't use Zoho at all you won't find these products much different from other BI tools available on the web.

Smaller companies and companies with a very clear path to conversion will love Zoho Analytics. I've used it a lot with real estate companies because you're just tracking email signups and contacts through email. It's very easy to use for non-techies.

We like that it quickly integrates with other applications so we can pull reports together without having to build them ourselves. It is nice that you can create many different types of graphs and charts to visualize your data with interesting contents. Tons of functionality and in-depth analysis. Perfectly met and suit the business need to combine multiple data sources with Zoho CRM. Good customer support network online to help understand the software as well for beginners.

Zoho Reports is very well suited to companies who need a cost-effective way to visualize their data and create dashboards at function or department level. It isn't as aesthetically pleasing as others in the market but you do have some (limited) flexibility to change graph and background colors. I would recommend this as a mostly internal facing tool. If you want something to present to clients etc, you might want to go with one of the other options in the marketplace, but you'll pay substantially more for pretty much the same functionality.

Good for analyzing data within the Zoho ecosystem, I use it for Zoho Projects however this can be used for the CRM system from Zoho as well. Not perfectly suited for a BI/reporting software that is taking imports from multiple data streams. Reports are not for offline use, which can be problematic based on the physical internet presence
