Have improved workflow efficiency through custom reports but encountered formatting limitations

The downsides of Domo are that we don't have a feature in the same column. When data comes in a time format, text format, and number format, we cannot segregate and create conditional formatting in that column. If in the future they develop this feature, it will benefit more users. Domo requires maintenance on my end, such as updates. I am maintaining some dashboards on a weekly basis and monthly basis daily reports. Because we need to upload in SFTP, we cannot schedule or auto-schedule due to rate purposes. We manually handle the data sets. If there were an option to reduce the cost, it would be easier to access.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution allows us to change our performance metrics and tracks our goals in real-time."

"What makes me really fond of Domo is the ETL because it enables us to maximize a single platform for pulling reports and automating things. We can send the raw data from a third-party platform and do the rest of the ETL in Domo, including transforming data, adding columns, etc."

"The best improvement is the data availability; for an organization that has over 12,000 users, having data on the cloud for anyone, anytime, to see their live stats is really different."

"My favorite feature in Domo is Beast Mode, and we have Insights; when asking insights on the right side of the dashboard, we create insights, and if I ask questions in segments, they provide more information regarding the dashboard and data set."

"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..."

"Domo is not a difficult tool to learn. All you need to know is the SQL for the ETL part. You don't need to write much code. That's the great part. It uses legacy languages, like SQL, which is very common among developers who then don't have to go and learn Domo's own syntax. Therefore, you don't have to learn another hard language to use Domo."

"We are making money from Domo, and all our clients are happy with the information that they receive from it."

"Using the "cards" which function as preconfigured reports or views. I use many of them simultaneously on an organized page, with filters that allow me to see high-level information as well as subsets across the dataset, in a few clicks. Many Excel-challenged users love to use this product for its simplicity."

More Domo pros

"The product helped determine the organization's true cost of providing its products and services to customers."

"Helps to compare production costs across different departments."

"Cube generation is a valuable feature."

"We use ABM as an expense allocation model and it has improved the awareness and accountability of the cost incurred due to the traceability feature."

"The product allows us to calculate the distributed cost across activities."

Cons

"It was pretty expensive. The cost didn't justify keeping it around when you look and compare it to other existing tools in the business."

"The utilization part: We cannot play much with the UX/UI. While they have APIs, they kept on failing if the data volume was too large."

"Sometimes the tool tends to be a little laggy, but it depends on what kind of volume of data that we are working in."

"One of the biggest problems is that end users require a license to run their own reports and dashboards, which are fairly expensive."

"It was zero. We paid for a year's contract and made no money from its use."

"The pricing of Domo is too high. Six months ago, Domo increased their prices. We suffered because we could not maintain the old data in the old data set in Domo."

"The site is cluttered with hundreds of KPIs which make navigation difficult and is confusing to the eye."

"It's quite slow. We have about 2,000,000 rows of data. Creating certain reports takes almost a couple of minutes, which should not be the case."

More Domo cons

"It could be made much more simpler. Most of the time it looks like a black box for developers."

"The interface is poorly designed and could really use an improvement to compete with other comparable software."

"We experienced severe performance issues when the models created are getting more details and becoming more complex."

"The usability needs to be improved but bear in mind that we did not have the latest update."

"The data integration is very complex Visualization of the cost flow is not user-friendly It takes hours to build OLAP cubes to analyze the results of the model"

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are making money from Domo, and all our clients are happy with the information that they receive from it."

"For about 100 users our cost is $95,800."

"Domo is slightly costly but it's much cheaper than some."

"I think it is reasonable."

"The solution is expensive compared to one of its competitors."

"It is on the pricier end."

"They've built an "app economy." Some of them are really expensive, so they're not for startups and smaller companies. They're more like enterprise tools. We couldn't afford some of them, because they were so crazy expensive. But if I was working for a bank, insurance company, or some bigger corporation then, for sure, you could justify those prices... It was silly expensive back then and it probably still is, or even more expensive."

"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."
