User Testimonials
	ClicData	Epicor Grow
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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Grow.com is well suited if you have a lot of data or client data to manage. If you do not have tons of data, there are other options out there that are a bit more simple and easy to use and a better price. Incentivized JP Johnny Pelter Client Relations Manager Read full review
Pros	Ease of use when developing new dashboards. Easy to customize. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	I love the fact that you have a team of developers who can help me build metrics or fix metrics that I do not create properly. I had to learn SQL in order to really build the metrics that mattered, which was a lot of fun, but resulted in many broken metrics. The vendor's team was great in responding to me requests for help! Really, really appreciate the fact that Grow has SQL formulas to reference when building metrics. Again, as a novice, this accelerated my ability to learn and not have to leave your site and resources and stay within the Grow web properties. Great account managers who check in regularly and are willing to help out whenever needed. Incentivized Matthew Racz Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer \| Crowdfunding Advisor Read full review
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. Incentivized Ben Warren Operations Manager Service USA Read full review	There are basic labeling issues with some of the graph types. Wish there was more customizability here, especially on complex graphs. Could help more with analysis of data and trends, but that's going into full-fledged BI territory. The functionality of being able to snapshot data isn't quite there. Incentivized Ian Nate Digital Marketing Operations Manager Read full review
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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	This tool is definitely a little bit difficult to be able to figure out at first, but after some time of learning you can definitely pick it up. I do wish there were more resources online that would be able to help speed up the learning process Incentivized GA Greg Alder Account Executive Read full review
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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	The support team is very helpful and in every situation we have needed help in, they have been able to assist. So I have had a good experience with them Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
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. Incentivized Ben Warren Operations Manager Service USA Read full review	Grow doesn't have as many advanced analytics features and other capabilities as some other 'dashboard' platforms on the market. Simply, if you want a tool for internal use only that has high-level analytics capabilities (regressions, completely custom visualizations, modeling), Grow probably isn't the platform for you. To put it another way, if you have a team of data engineers and scientists doing complex analysis, Grow might not make the most sense. However, if you understand the value of data/visualization/dashboards, but lack some of those skillsets in your company, Grow might be the perfect fit. Not only is it incredibly scalable and reasonably priced compared to other market solutions, but their transform capabilities really stand out. They have many native data transformations that mimic SQL coding of a dataset, without requiring any knowledge of SQL. They've converted these transformations to easy-to-use tools in the platform, which are perfect for the less-technical user. Incentivized Thomas (TC) Riley Director, Analytics Read full review
Return on Investment	ClicData was by far the most reasonable cost-wise, and we were able to get ROI within just minutes of using it. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Made it so much easier and faster to access data across tools Lessened the time exporting and uploading data to excel/sheets for analysis Made data and metrics more easily accessible to others in our orgs Incentivized Haleigh Doherty Demand Gen Ops Manager Read full review
