Has assisted our organization in de-identify data before presenting to decision-makers
Our primary use case for the solution is pandemic data and ensuring that the information is de-identified before it is presented to decision-makers The solution has assisted us in de-identifying the data and providing it promptly, so decision-makers can decide whether to keep classrooms open and…

A stable solution solution used for analysis with fast deployment
I used only the open-source, free edition. They are fast and simple but quite rigid regarding the dashboard and have some limitations in customization, such as characters, fonts, and number dimensions. It's necessary to have what the software provides. I use a database to demonstrate the cost of compressing the system for clients, industry maintenance, sales management, or energy management. It encompasses a wide range of fields. I use other tools to study the problems related to AI. The results from these tools can be integrated into the database to demonstrate the solution. Metabase is a different AI tool and is not included in this. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has the best GUI. And it already has an ETL tool embedded in it..."
"The ease of use, overall, is one of the valuable features, as is the ease of setup. Other than making sure IT was aware of, and agreed with our proceeding, we did not need IT for any of the setup. The ease of setup is more valuable than you might think. The ease of configuring the security policies, setting up groups, and setting up personalized data permissions so that only certain people can see certain data — that stuff is amazing... Domo really is extraordinarily full-featured, but it's really easy to use."
"I mostly see it as an ETL which has many system connectors. It does a good job of ETL."
"The ETL tools they have in Redshift are pretty awesome... I can work in Redshift to get the data from AWS and work in Redshift, in Domo, to create Transforms and the data structure we need..."
"In general, Domo is very powerful and very easy to use, relatively speaking."
"The ability to create custom connectors was useful because you never know, with customers, what platform they want to utilize or what data they have. It gave us a lot of flexibility in being able to bring data in from different places."
"The best thing is that the data storage is pretty much free. I can store as much data as I want, from different sources."
"The fact that you can add any data source is valuable. The entire data handling suite they have, all the apps, etc., is pretty amazing. One of the key things, not being a techie or a data-warehouse guy, is that you can connect data sources, and do all kinds of pretty amazing things."
"It is easy for a new user to learn the tool."
"I rate the solution’s stability a nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"One of the improvements that could be made is related to improved storage options."
"There's a learning curve before you can get used to the solution."
"Their organization or client service didn't always keep up... They took on more and more clients and the processes slowed down a little bit."
"I would like to see more dashboard creation options."
"It's quite slow. We are using about 2,000,000 rows of data. Creating certain reports takes almost a couple of minutes, which should not be the case."
"Their STK is not up to date and you can't access it on their website. They have a private STK to access resources in Domo."
"I would like to publish a dashboard for the employees so that they can also see the performance of our organization. But that is not a feature in Domo, although it's something that Zoho provided."
"It is expensive."
"The solution could provide more customization."
"The tool must be made more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"For about 100 users our cost is $95,800."
"The price that they offered was around $200 per user license. It was pretty cheap at that time compared to other companies. I think they have revamped their pricing structure since then."
"No matter if you're a developer or an end-user, the licensing cost is around $12 per user per month."
"Domo has more than one licensing model. You can choose between the yearly subscription and the per-user licensing model. The tool is flexible in terms of licensing. As for the cost, Domo is an end-to-end BI tool so its pricing is a little higher than other players in the market, for example, non end-to-end BI tools such as OBIEE and Tableau specific only for business intelligence and presenting data to the end users, unlike Domo which handles everything. You want to get Domo as an integration tool, an ETL tool, etc. As the tool is end-to-end, its cost is always going to be a little higher than other BI tools, but it's worth paying because you won't have to spend extra for other activities. After all, Domo can do those activities."
"Because it's software as a service, it's more expensive on the face of it. But there are a lot of variables. I don't have to pay for servers or for infrastructure. I don't have to pay labor for my IT organization to set up or maintain the environment. I don't have to pay for them to upgrade the software, and test it, etc., because when it rolls out, it is transparent and seamless for us. But, because of that, it costs more, I imagine, than Sisense, or Yellowfin, or Power BI. A lot of those make it sound like they're inexpensive, but when you add in all the hidden costs and all of the overhead, it's probably comparable."
"Domo is slightly costly but it's much cheaper than some."
"It is on the pricier end."
"The pricing differs from customer to customer, depending on the package."
"The product is open-sourced."
