Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The tool helps to catch results and review them.""The solution is simple for people from a viewing perspective, not a coding perspective.""The most valuable feature I would say is the flexibility in editing.""The most important feature of the solution is the ability to run Python-based scripts."

More Mode Analytics Pros →

"It is easy to set up the solution.""The scalability is good.""It's easy to drill down or expand data to get more details right out of the box.""The initial setup was very straightforward.""The ability to do ad hoc explorations of data has been most valuable.""ThoughtSpot takes the modifying of existing reports out of our hands.""I would say the return on investment is good. Whatever we invested, we got results. We have been finding it easy to use and onboard new use cases.""I like ThoughtSpot's search capabilities. You can also create custom analytics even if you aren't an experienced data analyst. We have users with no data analytics experience making some of the dashboards we've created, copying components, and customizing them to their specific use cases."

More ThoughtSpot Pros →

Cons
"Mode Analytics needs to improve the overall user experience.""The data visualization is cumbersome in Mode Analytics. I want the solution to add a map that has an easy interface. The UI is slow sometimes.""The solution could run faster.""I think in terms of User Interface, I would say it can be better."

More Mode Analytics Cons →

"A customized visualization is lacking in this product.""ThoughtSpot is a fairly new product, so some usability aspects aren't as mature as we'd like them to be. One example is their organizational methodology, like how objects are organized in their dashboards inside the product. They're all on a flat list, which works if you've got five or 10 dashboards. However, it's insufficient when you're a large enterprise with multiple groups looking at the same dashboards. It isn't organized well.""I would like to see more flexibility in adding the pins. Currently, we have four different sizes in which I can add pins, but I would like to be able to resize my pins.""In terms of features, I'd like to be able to pivot data - for example, going from rows to columns. It's not easy to do.""The most difficult thing I found is that it only deals with the files and does not have direct connectivity to databases.""The one area of the solution that I do hear needs improvement is on the visualization front.""If I want to order columns, this feature is not there.""The dashboards could give you more ability to fine tune the appearance. You get a great deal more control over how something looks in Power BI than you do in ThoughtSpot."

    Top Answer:I was put in charge of creating a lot of the dashboards, so it was very much that there weren't people at the company that knew how to use the solution. I was just handed the solution when I… more »
    Top Answer:It's easy to drill down or expand data to get more details right out of the box.
    Top Answer:I like the pricing structure. I get billed by how much data I put in, not how many people are looking at the data. It's better for me as I can control pricing a bit more easily.
    Top Answer:We'd like more flexibility with the calendar as our fiscal year does not align with the calendar year. We have to load or create our own custom calendar to actually need our fiscal year-end. With… more »
