Verified User Anonymous Chose Looker Looker was the most customizable option for our business and cost wise made the most sense. They do have a free tier option that some of the other weren't offering to us at the time. Looker has a great- mobile app solution while tableau is a desktop-based platform. Tableau also … Incentivized Helpful? JC Juan Camilo Data Analyst Chose Looker The biggest advantage that Looker Studio has is that it's really easy to use and to distribute to other use. You can have a really complex report set up in a couple of minutes with an extract data source that enables Looker to update really fast. Incentivized Helpful? Daniel Dammerman Regional Sales Director Chose Looker Looker is provided by the company, and I am not at a level where I am part of the decision. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Looker Looker is less complex to use and links directly to google suite which we use across the business and personally think is a better user experience than microsoft. Incentivized Helpful?

Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Looker Looker stacks up well against other data providers for usability and friendly interfaces, plus the ability to customise. We actually integrate Looker with other analytics tools in the same sphere (power bi, dreamdata and others) so that we can have one comprehensive dashboard … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Looker In my opinion, Looker is no Power BI. It is good, but I think Power BI is amazing.

We plan to continue using Power BI for c-suite and corporate reporting, … Incentivized Helpful? Newaz Chowdhury Marketing Executive Chose Looker Looker is a free and easier analytics and dashboard tool. It provides enough data and features to get things done and analyze marketing data.

Pintu Prusty support engineer Chose Looker Google Analytics and Microsoft Power BI Incentivized Helpful? John Beadle Director of Product Management Chose Looker Tableau provides additional visual functionality and is great for more in-depth visuals or further data exploration, but it is costly and an extremely robust solution for simple data reporting.

Verified User Anonymous Chose Looker Looker is a lot less overwhelming and lets you take the data that you have in Google analytics to make it understandable, focused and specific to the audience that is viewing the content.

Quentin Aisbett SEO Strategist Chose Looker We'll still use Semrush's reporting for some clients - depending on the metrics which are important for them and whether they have an interest in live reporting or simply monthly PDF reports. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Looker If you company is using Google suite products, Looker is a no-brainer.

The data can sync automatically, and the graphs are visually appealing. Incentivized Helpful? Thomas Holland Senior Manager of Digital Paid Marketing Chose Looker Looker Studio is not as robust as Tableau or Microsoft BI. So it does not provide quite as much insight or depth and it has more limitations overall then the other major reporting products. However, it is also free and connects perfectly with other Google products. Plus, all of … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Looker Technically, Power BI is much more complete and powerful, but it's like an ocean liner. I didn't need all that equipment.

User Testimonials
	AWS Deep Learning Containers	Looker
Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	When data drives potential for new orders, Looker earns its place in our tech stack. If, on the other hand, we are hoping for pipeline generation, Looker is useful if you are willing to repeatedly go check customer utilizations .... it is not appropriate if you are hoping to automate data analysis for this purpose. Incentivized Daniel Dammerman Regional Sales Director Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	It is very easy to start a new dashboard and configure what you want to display by just selecting/dragging from the list of available columns. It is intuitive, mainly if you use other Google services like Google Sheets. The look and feel is modern and nice. It it very useful to have an immediate visual overview of the data in a spreadsheet. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	I wish I could get more granular in the Google ad data, such as down to the campaign type, instead of having to see only all campaigns. The setup can be time-consuming if you're not using the product regularly. Editing the dashboard requires a few logins; I wish it was more seamless. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	We are very haooy with Looker, it provides us with all the funciomalities we need for both the day to day oerformance tracking and longer periods reporting. It is easy to use for account managers, configurable and customizable for soecialists and what is most imoortant, our clinets generally really love it Incentivized David Mynář Head Of Online Marketing Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Looker is relatively easy to use, even as it is set up. The customers for the front-end only have issues with the initial setup for looker ml creations. Other "looks" are relatively easy to set up, depending on the ETL and the data which is coming into Looker on a regular basis. Incentivized JH Joe Hughes Senior DevOps Engineer Read full review
Reliability and Availability	No answers on this topic	No objections Incentivized David Mynář Head Of Online Marketing Read full review
Performance	No answers on this topic	Somehow resources heavy, both on server and client. I recommned at least 50Mbs data rate and high performance desktop comouter to be abke to run comolex tasks and configure larger amount of data. On the other hand, the client does not need to worry when viewing, the performance is usually ok Incentivized David Mynář Head Of Online Marketing Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	Never had to work with support for issues. Any questions we had, they would respond promptly and clearly. The one-time setup was easy, by reading documentation. If the feature is not supported, they will add a feature request. In this case, LDAP support was requested over OKTA. They are looking into it. Incentivized Anson Abraham Data Lord Read full review
Implementation Rating	No answers on this topic	Very satisfied, easy to implement Incentivized David Mynář Head Of Online Marketing Read full review
Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	In my opinion, Looker is no Power BI. It is good, but I think Power BI is amazing. That said, in my experience, Power BI is nowhere near as easy to setup and report on Google services as Looker is. We plan to continue using Power BI for c-suite and corporate reporting, especially for internal databases, but will gladly use Looker for our marketing information for AdWords, Analytics, Search Console, and YouTube. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	No answers on this topic	Other than some people not liking the numbers, I don't see any negative impacts; we haven't experienced that. The reports help us unravel the story of our users and how they are sifting through our pages. Our clients enjoy seeing the numbers to understand better what stands out on their sites. The reports have helped us see what campaigns are working and where we need to tweak things. The reports have enabled us to have better conversations with stakeholders about how their web pages should be modified, edited, etc., to reflect the data.
