Streamlined our data visualization and analysis processes, enabling less technical team members to handle data-driven tasks independently

Apache Superset could be improved by enhancing its interactivity and engagement capabilities. While it serves well for data visualization, it lacks more dynamic features that allow users to interact with data directly through the dashboard. For the next release, including interactive widgets and reporting tools that allow actions on digital assets directly from the dashboard would be beneficial. This functionality would make Superset a more comprehensive digital analytics platform suitable for interactive data exploration and operational management. Implementing actionable buttons for security controls and dashboard management could significantly enhance user interaction, making it more suitable for real-time data manipulation and decision-making.

A comprehensive and user-friendly business intelligence for enhanced data insight

When developing multidimensional IMDS models in Pyramid Analytics, there is a need for better features to maintain and analyze data. The application currently lacks the ability to easily track the original physical table and field names, making it challenging to relate them to business names. It would be desirable to have the possibility to generate a data dictionary, detailing the original physical tables, renamed fields, and derived fields. Such features would simplify documentation, facilitate understanding of how calculations depend on physical fields and aid in explaining the development process to others. Having this lineage and easy-to-generate data dictionary would greatly enhance the usability of Pyramid Analytics for developers.

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Apache Superset is the easy way to configure dashboards as reports or analyses and it's easy to use and intuitive. Users do not need a lot of training to use the solution."

"It is a good visual solution tool in an open-source category."

"The solution supports a rich set of charts and enables users to create their own dashboards."

"The no-code interface is the most valuable as it allows us to operate without constant support from the data engineering team, fostering a self-service environment."

"It seems quite performant in analyzing multi-dimensional information sets and presenting them."

"The most valuable feature of Pyramid Analytics, outshining even top-tier platforms like Power BI, is its robust support for DAX queries."

"The features I find most valuable are 'Discover,' 'Formulate,' and 'Model.' I use them regularly to build logic and create reports for my job."

"It proved to be a very powerful and useful tool due to its breakdown capabilities, easy reporting features, flexibility in building custom calculations, and the ability to integrate them into reports."

"The on-premise version has quite good scalability."

"It offers a wide range of analytics options including statistics and visualizations, as well as prediction capabilities, allowing users to make forecasts based on the latest data."

"I think the most valuable Pyramid Analytics feature is the solution's ability to drill down and dice in the loop. I think it is better than InExcel or Power BI."

"Pyramid has a wide level of uses, as it's a complete ETL process and has a good level of connecting to a lot of data sources."

Cons

"The platform's reporting feature needs enhancement."

"Dynamic dashboarding could improve to enable smooth navigation when transitioning from a higher to a lower view, allowing for easy accessibility."

"Apache Superset could be improved by enhancing its interactivity and engagement capabilities."

"There is room for improvement in terms of documentation and examples, especially for newcomers like me who are learning both business intelligence and Pyramid."

"I find that this is quite a heavy, time-consuming tool for developers."

"It would be desirable to have the possibility to generate a data dictionary, detailing the original physical tables, renamed fields, and derived fields."

"Pyramid Analytics could improve by speeding up data refresh, especially for large datasets."

"Even though the solution has a functionality for every step, it's not so well- defined. That needs to be improved."

"The general amount of negative comments that I am hearing from my team makes me very wary."

"I think the graphic number of charts and components could be higher, at least comparable to Brain Power BI."

"There is room for improvement in terms of the user interface, particularly when it comes to modifying connections between filters and visual components in a dashboard."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Apache Superset is open-source and free."

"Apache Superset has a three-year licensing model."

"The price of Apache Superset is less than some of its competitors."
