14. Disadvantages of Salesforce Analytics Cloud
No Native Dataloader
You still need a third party data loader for importing data
from external databases. Third party data loaders are not
compatible with every database and can be buggy in the
best of times.
Good automated data loading solutions obviously cost some
money on top of the already expensive Salesforce platform.

15. Disadvantages of Salesforce Analytics Cloud
NoSQL means Difficult legacy imports
From our perspective NoSQL is an awesome move but not all
companies prefer or require NoSQL databases.
NoSQL database means that importing databases
from legacy relational database can be one big pain.

16. Disadvantages of Salesforce Analytics Cloud

Salesforce Analytics platform is expensive. Pretty handsomely expensive indeed.

17. Disadvantages of Salesforce Analytics Cloud
First Version BLUES
Salesforce Analytics platform is still suffering from its first version blues.
The actual capabilities of the platform are not well known.
The platform boasts about its Salesforce Analytic Query Language(SAQL), a
natively developed query language to navigate data.
But if life cycles of other query languages are to be compared, SAQL still needs
some time to mature.

19. Need a Consultant on Salesforce Analytics Cloud ?
Salesforce Analytics Platform sounds promising but because of its price and
still relatively unknown capabilities let’s not be too eager to switch to it yet. You
need to do proper cost benefit analysis as well as
requirement analysis before opting for the platform.
Hire experienced Salesforce Consultants
to work out the math for you.
