Amazon QuickSight vs. Geckoboard

Amazon Quicksight is a truly cloud-based solution so it works perfectly fine and saves a lot of expense in terms of hardware and maintenance. We can maintain it by ourselves by giving commands on UI. If you have connectivity issues then it can cause headaches because it's a cloud platform and it's a bit costly as compared to other services

Great value for the money. Excellent for smaller agencies with multiple projects and teams in a smaller space. We can quickly roll out mobile displays to help with a particular deployment push or monitoring a clients website engagement. It's also useful for showing live data without requiring analytics to run reports from a CRM, etc.

Incentivized

• Easily to set up for data sources, already supports quite a few of AWS and non-AWS data sources
• Cost friendly since users are charged only for basis of usage

Incentivized

• User self-help - the video tutorials and a robust publicly accessible knowledgebase.
• Geckoboard can aggregate data from a number of other apps into a singular dashboard.
• Sleek, dark UI.

Incentivized

• It is still immature as a cloud-based BI tool.
• Its functionality is about 40-50% of its competitor's products.
• Application is still a little buggy and non-intuitive at times.

Incentivized

• A bit more flexibility in the number of columns would be nice.
• Ability to scale to mobile device (web).
• App capabilities are missing on Android.

My company did not renew due to changes in the organization.

It is easy to use and set up no need to put in so much effort. Once build, the dashboard can be used with multiple clients with the same domain. It provides multiple connectivity options which makes it a versatile option for reporting.

With a simple interface and available templates, creating basic dashboards is easy. Obviously depending on the data you want to visualize, there may be higher learning curves. That being said, they have a huge amount of integrations and extensible frameworks. If you are using anything made in the past ten years there is an API function or integration that can get it talking to the platform. As such, it's pretty easy to hit the main data points you want and get it on a cheap display in front of your team.

They provide proper support when needed. They are always ready to provide the box solution and make things easier for users.

Incentivized

The support levels vary based on the level of plan that you have but that's to be expected. Virtually everything except the Enterprise plan has basic chat/email support. While they are responsive they are not going to be much assistance in helping you figure out API calls or implementing 3rd party integrations. That is to be expected and the support community can pretty much get you in the right direction if you look.

All of the other reporting platforms my organization has used previously were within our CRM and not a standalone program. In that we were very limited in being able to slice and dice the data the way that we wanted to

Incentivized

Domo is more robust. We do use both because Geckoboard is really easy to show the rest of our team without the need for additional licenses.

Incentivized

• Reduce lots of setup and maintenance cost.
• Latest technology in market.
• Full eco system provided under on roof.
• Cost effective.

Incentivized

• While we originally used this as an internal IS tool, we eventually have expanded it to be used by nearly every department.
• Because pricing is monthly, we can grow or decrease our usage based on our current client needs.
• Because it is low cost and easy to deploy, we can utilize it in place of considerable resources in analytics and reporting by delivering snapshots of data without pulling reports.
