alternative to Microsoft Power BI with robust sharing and collaboration
  • "We evaluated many tools. Most others did not qualify our criteria or they did not provide the kind of features we were looking for (e.g. embedding, scheduled emails, re-branding). Zoho Analytics has a comprehensive set of features and the best part is that these features don't cost us zillions of dollars. We chose Zoho Analytics over Power BI because it comes with a better-tiered pricing model."
