Overall Satisfaction with Salesforce Analytics Cloud

Salesforce Analytics is a great tool to leverage if you're already leveraging the reporting power of Salesforce. Depending on how data is recorded within your Salesforce CRM, you can use Analytics to gain greater insight into service or sales decision making within your customer base. As a business intelligence tool, Salesforce Analytics allows you to measure change and create actionable insight.
  • Quicker, faster decision making
  • Providers actionable insight
  • Understanding Sales and Service analytics
  • Price
  • Plugins
I haven't used comparable tools, other than Domo. And Domo as a BI tool is more geared at making high level inferences off raw data. Salesforce Analytics pulls in data from an existing Salesforce suite to make the inferences. But then you can make iterative changes, and track those changes with relation to ROI.
Salesforce Analytics Cloud is well suited for scenarios where you're using Salesforce to gather information on your customer base. This tool is designed to be a high powered business intelligence tool which leverages existing data to give greater insight into user activity and drivers. It is not suited for companies who are not using Salesforce.
