Cirrus Insight vs. GoodData.AI

For someone who uses both Gmail and Salesforce as part of their main role, this software is an invaluable connector for them both. Some of the features are also not Salesforce specific - such as the Meeting Scheduler, which has proved invaluable to me, and I would recommend to any Gmail user who frequently set up meetings (either internally or externally).

I think it works nicely for shops that want the analytical power and are ok to host their own infrastructure for the data and etl. For smaller operations with limited budgets but still high demand for analytical features the math may not work out.

• Log email to Salesforce. You click one button and it logs for you. This is easier than adding the BCC email address that Salesforce provides as a way to log email.
• Track views and engagement on these emails. It's nice to know if the email was opened and if links were clicked.
• Update quick fields in Salesforce directly from their inbox using Cirrus. This prevented reps from needing to click into Salesforce, wait for it to load, then update fields like the phone number or name.
• If the rep did need to open Salesforce, Cirrus provides a quick button to navigate to the Lead/Contact/Opportunity page quickly.

• The source datasets are often complex, semi-structured and un-linked to key entities. With GoodData, all of these datasets are unified to serve as a central semantic data model layer, building into a galaxy schema with dimensions, bridge, and facts, which then forms the backbone that powers the [...] data intelligence cloud. Building insights and dashboards become a much easier task once the underlying data model is designed. GoodData enforces certain best practices as a BI tool, which must be adhered to get the true value of the raw data. For e.g. the source FDA dashboard may just show inspection data but the Site Profile dashboard built on GoodData goes beyond the standard information and shows more insight into site risk scores and can be drilled into details. There is blog written on this topic: [...].
• GoodData provides a rich collection of visualization options that help us create compelling story-telling via dashboards. Being well-prepared for FDA inspections is essential for maintaining product quality, regulatory compliance, and avoiding serious business setbacks. FDA inspections are critical events that can shape a company’s market access and reputation. The FDA itself offers the FDA Data Dashboard, but it doesn’t make every document available. There is a blog written on this topic: [...].
• Medical devices and technologies do not stop evolving after they receive regulatory approval. Once a product hits the market, it faces real-world usage, compliance challenges, and an array of regulatory scrutiny. Managing these postmarket dynamics is critical to a product’s long-term success and patient safety. However, many companies struggle to keep track of relevant events across a product’s markets, from adverse event reports to changing regulations. Postmarket Intelligence developed on GoodData platform enables us to solve that problem. It empowers MedTech companies to efficiently monitor, assess, and act on postmarket data—saving time, improving decision-making, and ensuring compliance with industry standards. Anyone who is used to trying to get the data they need from the various FDA, and other regulatory agency websites, knows that collecting, cleaning, and structuring that data takes hours. And that’s before any analysis can get done. We enable customers to free up time to focus only on the high-value analysis and subsequent recommendations to leadership, rather than wrangling the data.
• The data pipeline refresh that is provided by GoodData Platform is also quite useful from data engineering perspective. The Automated Data Distribution v2 or commonly called as ADD refresh follows a set pattern of identifying the analytical data model through output stage which helps abstract the complex table definition to simpler views that can help with quick rebuild at the data warehouse level while loading the data into GoodData's ADS storage layer. The import first way of loading data into GoodData's cloud storage, followed by querying for any aggregations or metrics on the GoodData analyzer, makes this simple and fast.
• GoodData's latest product i.e. Cloud also offers several good features like Analytics as Code which helps software engineering teams follow a code-first approach to analytics, where building insights, dashboards or even datasets can be done in YAML templates or serviced by REST APIs. This is particularly forward thinking in the modern technology stack and evolving industry requirements. These provide seamless integration options to front-end and backend code, embedded analytics with multiple choices from HTML to React based workloads. At [...], we are currently exploring most of these features while planning for a future migration from Platform to Cloud.

• Outlook for Mac could use some work as an add-on because it's hard to read sometimes on my laptop. It's not a sidebar, like the Windows functionality, so it's harder to read.
• Doesn't always find an opportunity, even though I know it's in our Salesforce system.
• Randomly shuts down and doesn't log in properly at times. I've had to remove and re-download more than once.

• Good Data is already have certain customizable options. However, having more flexibility in customizing reports and dashboards & control over the visual aspects would enhance the overall user experience.
• To make Good Data even more powerful tool, improving the speed and responsiveness of the tool, especially during data-intensive tasks, would be a significantly helpful.
• For new users, the interface can be made more user friendly which would promote easy navigation through features of tool.

It is the best google to salesforce integration on the market. support is incredibly responsive and very helpful. They are constantly adding new features, and the current feature set is well beyond anything else that is currently offered in the market

Because gooddata really helps us in processing data to make reports or dashboards. So we are very satisfied when we use it. What we like is the flexible use of charts. We change at will the use of charts to display in reports or dashboards. Thank you Gooddata for helping companies like us who need flexibility in usage

Very easy to use. Everything opens in a familiar interface right inside the google apps sidebar. It brings in salesforce records, so as long as you know google apps / gmail and salesforce you'll be all set. It's point and click.

From a customer perspective it is incredibly usable. We have more users building their own reports that would normally need custom work from our support team. The back end can be daunting when trying to configure things like new data elements or push changes to a report to all existing customers.

Haven't had a down issue in the almost 2 years I've been using the product. Support is also super responsive.

We are approximately one month since go-live. There has been one short outage.

Pulls in salesforce data very quickly, and syncs very quickly.

I'm generally impressed with how fast it reflects so much data.

Petr was a rock star - patient, knowledgeable, clear and easy to work with.

GoodData implementation team was professional and courteous

The plugin is installed inside your internet browser as an extension/add-on. It can be found in most add on stores and is easy to install. Usually just a few clicks. It handles authorization for you once you sign in, and then takes care of all the rest. It couldn't be easier to get working right out of the box. You're up in running in less than 5 minutes.

Implementations are hard and we had limited technical resources. We relied too heavily on GD care team. When we found technical gaps, they weren't simple to overcome

Yesware regularly sent me alerts that my emails had been opened by someone who I hadn't sent them to, from locations they couldn't possibly have been. I also don't recall its Salesforce activity logging working as smoothly, though I last used Yesware more than 12 months ago so my memory isn't as fresh as it could be
