Regarding working with large datasets Zoho Analytics can do very well, since there are multiple ways to connect to your data, from simple databases to large data warehouses. You can also create extractions and data manipulation with custom queries in SQL directly in the Zoho Analytics import process, without the need to ask the IT team to create a custom view in your DW just for you.

Since they have recently launched AI based analysis tool called Ask Zia which is the most innovative idea of Zoho and it is very useful for any dataset it will suggest more appropriate graphs, even it will make the dashboards on your datasets too. You don't have to spend too much time to make the dashboards just use Ask Zia and make the dashboards.

We've been very pleased with the scalability provided by Zoho Analytics. We recently increased our usage dramatically...going from 500,000 rows to a capacity of 50 million rows and it's working great. We've got hundreds of queries, charts, and dashboards and the system is holding up great.

Zoho Analytics has been designed properly into working with large datasets. It can also integrate several data sources, and perform AI based statistical analysis to increase product's overall scalability. What is required here is that the company or the firm should consider sharing the data on the same platform to get accurate results. The results and analytics will give clear picture and projection for the future strategies to be formulated.

The Zoho Analytics has wide range of charts and graphs, the data aggregation allows to represent them well manner. Also, it allow to customize the charts with various time range option.

Zoho Analytics provides us with a lot of options to integrate our data, it could be with the native integration to the ManageEngine's tools (like ServiceDesk Plus and OpManager), connect a MSSQL database or simply importing an XLS file.

we can rate Zoho Analytics around 7 based on our experience. The platform is well made to handle datasets and data sources of any size. allows more integration with external platforms. It offers decent scalability for most business needs, though there could be room for further enhancement to match more scalability requirements for new clients specially the custom provisions

  • Easy to scale, and integrate different sources of modern data stores and formats.
  • Client APIs are also well-written and documented with multiple paradigm support.
  • Able to handle large skewed uneven datasets.
  • AI-based analytics needs improvement in analysis, there are much better tools and algorithms available.

I have used data tables with 10s of thousands of rows. In the age of big data, this is small but it's big for me. I haven't seen issues with the platform as I've increased the number of rows over time so it's hard to say what the upper limits would be.

Zoho Analytics performs just as stated in its description. To meet their needs, a novice can design straightforward reports and dashboards. Users who work for larger companies or organisations, or who have access to a lot of data from various sources, may easily combine that data with Zoho Analytics to build more unique reports and dashboards and share them with their employees.

Since my company is into B2B sales, we have used dataset which are not very large (typically dataset would be 10000 rows) and Zoho works fantastic with small datasets. Data ingestion and transformation is smooth too. I have not used any AI based statistical analysis and I am also not aware if Zoho uses AI techniques.

Because it does exactly what your description says. A beginner can create simple and basic reports and dashboards to satisfy their requirements. A user within a larger organizations or enterprise, or a user with a lot of data coming from a lot of sources, can also easily integrate all of it with Zoho Analytics to create more custom reports and dashboards and share them with their teams.

Zoho Analytics does not have reliable enough integrations with third-party platforms to be an effective scalable solution. Integrations often break, making maintenance more difficult than it needs to be. The system also lags when too many data sources are added.

We've used Zoho Analytics for many years and it has continued to grow with us scaling with no issues. We started with one department and now use it across all of our departments and the whole company. Each department manages their own data and we've never had any issues with syncing large amounts of data daily.

I have not really had problems with the operation of the platform; when I accessed it, I managed to do the work in the ideal times. The statistical development responds very quickly to the user’s requirements, and it is easy to extract the data to make the particular combinations that interest the industry.

Data from various sources can be integrated and custom report can easily be created on the go. You can create custom report by connecting data from CRM, Inventory, books and other products to have better insight into your company’s operation. Managing large set of data like traditional business on Excel is almost impossible. That just makes your decision taking capability slow. This is must-have product if you are looking to scale your operation and empower your team with analytics.

They are on the absolute right path; just improve the quality of the product, provide better customer support and UX, that's all. The functionality of their tools is top-notch. Nothing to complain about, to be honest. For the scalability thing, if the customer gets better support and the right price, boom, you are perfect from a business perspective.

As our business grows progressively, we have been able to work with larger data sets with Zoho Analytics, and it has provided the right tools to do so, merging tables and duplicating different reports when needed, as well as customizing the reports with different data but maintaining the template. I think that this is a great feature that saves time.
