Considered Both Products
ClicData
Chose ClicData
We tried and trialed everything we could before choosing ClicData and there's two main points that ClicData is just absolutely head and shoulders above the rest. Most importantly it's by far the easiest to use. We had working dashboard giving us meaningful data and insight in …
Chose ClicData
We chose ClicData over some other options because it was cost-effective and relatively easy to implement. It didn't require a server to set-up or manage which was nice.
Chose ClicData
ClicData was the most flexible. It is cloud-based and even has WebService access. You can publish your data for access from other applications. The sheer number of data connectors is amazing. The ability to not only create dashboards, but you can schedule them to be delivered …
Databox
Chose Databox
In comparison, Databox has been a more robust solution and one that works really well with HubSpot (our preferred marketing automation platform). It's a bit pricier than Cyfe was (not sure now), but the features are worth it.
Chose Databox
Much cheaper and seems to do at least as good of a job while having a similar integration stack. I also appreciate the efforts Databox go to on their blog and podcast to help educate people on all things data and metrics.
Chose Databox
Databox automatically integrates with tons of different data sources without you needing to arrange the backend information on how everything should connect. Tableau, Power BI, and Sisense require a lot of manual setup unless you have all of your fields perfectly matched up …
Chose Databox
While HubSpot is where we store our information and utilize the systems, the reporting wasn't deep enough and it didn't include the entire website since it is hosted elsewhere. So I started looking at options, and Databox came as a recommendation so I checked it out and haven't …
Chose Databox
Databox and Grow are similar tools, and truthfully, Grow is a more powerful platform with more sophisticated reporting, integrations, and a larger feature set. However, Grow is significantly more expensive and Databox has the features you need most for less of an investment. I …
Chose Databox
HubSpot's reporting tool simply isn't enough. It also doesn't help that the reporting add-on for HubSpot is an additional $200/month, and it only reports on HubSpot stuff. That's why we selected Databox--to report on other platforms like FB ads, Google Analytics, etc.

However, …
Chose Databox
Databox is unique in its ability to report from multiple data sources. Google Analytics is the standard when it comes to web metrics, but it's just one of the tools that integrates with Databox. Tableau is fantastic for data visualizations and reporting, but it's much more …

Likelihood to Recommend
If you need to quickly and easily pull data and display it on a dashboard, there's really no better solution out there. We tried the big names like Tableau, Sisense, Microsoft, but they all were really more suited to a dedicated data scientist and had steep learning curves. ClicData allowed just about anyone on my team to start grabbing data and creating dashboards in just minutes, it really is that easy. If you have some very complicated data formulas that you need to use or create it can get a little convoluted...but I'm sure that's similar across the board.

Databox is fantastic for companies or agencies that regularly report on a variety of metrics from multiple data sources. It's ideal for any company that uses a variety of different tools (as long as Databox integrates with them). It's particularly good for HubSpot agencies and companies that use HubSpot. It's maybe not necessary for companies that only use one tool or don't do reporting.

Cons
  • I wish there were even more widgets for the dashboards such as calendar layouts.
  • It would also be nice to be able to query the back-end data using SQL Studio.
  • It would be nice to change data connections from the dashboard to dashboard even though they have the same fields and schema.

  • Some types of data can only be reported on for 1-2 months back. Unless I'm misunderstanding the function of the software this seems really weird. I can't figure out how to report on Activities more than 2 months ago

Usability
Like I mentioned before, the ease of use means we not only get very quick results and beautiful dashboards in minutes, it means my team is actually using it because they aren't frustrated in the learning curve or wasting time trying to accomplish simple tasks.

Databox is an intuitive, well-designed platform that can be used by non-technical marketers. It is easy to learn, and while set up takes time, usability is high and the team has enjoyed creating custom dashboards and clients have also given us great feedback regarding its usability and value. While other BI tools are much more complex to navigate, Databox is a breeze.

Support Rating
We've only needed support a couple times in the beginning as we were learning the system and how to display our data in interesting ways. Every time we reached out we got very detailed responses and were connected to someone that you could tell was very interested in making sure we were happy with how things were going.
Read full review
I have really enjoyed using Databox and have seen the value of it in many ways. They also continue to improve the functions of it and grow their integrations and templates. I look forward to continuing to use Databox in the future, potentially even finding ways to incorporate it into other departments to help them with reporting as well.

Alternatives Considered
ClicData was the most flexible. It is cloud-based and even has WebService access. You can publish your data for access from other applications. The sheer number of data connectors is amazing. The ability to not only create dashboards, but you can schedule them to be delivered to specific recipients on a scheduled basis via PDF or a static HTML page.

While HubSpot is where we store our information and utilize the systems, the reporting wasn't deep enough and it didn't include the entire website since it is hosted elsewhere. So I started looking at options, and Databox came as a recommendation so I checked it out and haven't turned back. I didn't evaluate any other products because Databox met our need and we were able to get started right away.
