Datameer vs. VizualSurvey

Datameer's workbooks include an intuitive GUI for maximum usability. Anyone with an analytical mind may easily compile data using the built-in worksheet capability without requiring much technological knowledge. Ad hoc reports may now be made and scheduled. In addition, I haven't had too much problem fixing things because I can get most of the answers I want there.

VizualSurvey helps us with our very specific need to create custom dashboards for each individual client based on their business with our company. We survive based on our customer's feedback, and being able to organize this feedback into easy read, and understand data, gives us the ability to ensure our company grows in the direction of success.

Employees with intermediate SQL and Hive knowledge can generate reports faster than using Datameer . It does have visualization tool but I don't think it is anything that cannot be accomplished by importing the data in Excel

Easy to use for most things, starts to require some planning as your projects get more complex.

I have compared Datameer with the tools listed above and it blows them out of the water. Datameer is much more user friendly than these tools and is also a lot more powerful. Once the Q1 release comes out with drill down capabilities on the infographics, Datameer will surpass Tableau and Spotfire in visualization.

Google Data Studio has several problems with modifying data and the way we collect data is very basic and can be outdated sometimes. The visualizations are limited and the formatting is very restrictive. VizualSurvey is much better with data visualization and survey mechanisms where people respond better and we get a higher response rate.
