User Testimonials
	Dimensional Insight	Prism, by Prism Skylabs (discontinued)
Likelihood to Recommend	Dimensional Insight Well suited - as stated before - allows user to answer their own questions. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Discontinued Products I really like to use Prism, compared to other software, for data analysis. It allows a quick "plug and play" of the data and is very tolerant of many data formats. I typically resort to other software only when I need a more specific statistical analysis, or if I need a graphically cleaner visualization. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Dimensional Insight The product is excellent! Experienced DI Consultants with a broad knowledge in both, product and client data. Customer service and technical support is always available; very professional and investigate reported issues until resolved. Incentivized OC Odalys Corominas Business Systems Analyst Read full review	Discontinued Products Data manipulations Data visualization Ease of use Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Dimensional Insight Some screens are not adjustable for sizing. Better capability to import from a spreadsheet. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Discontinued Products Need a stronger interface with R Advanced analysis is difficult to use Graphically clumsy Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Dimensional Insight Navigation thru the Diver portal is simple; some users have trouble but it also depends on how the analysts build models and present the reports with quickviews selections and report layouts. I am aware of DI capability to access reports thru mobile devices but I have not experience it first hand.

Support Rating	Dimensional Insight Support is always quick to answer and good to deal with. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Discontinued Products No answers on this topic
Implementation Rating	Dimensional Insight I don't have direct experience with the first time DI was implemented but on subsequent upgrades there have been positive experiences with support and seamless transitions to avoid users discomfort.

Alternatives Considered	Dimensional Insight Dimensional Insight is a lot easier to design and use. User interface is much more intuitive. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Discontinued Products Excel would be the next best thing to use. It is free for the academic lab to use though the quality of the figure is lacking and not standardized. Excel also lacks easy to use built-in formulas for data manipulation and can be tedious to replicate the same data Prism can do with a single click. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Dimensional Insight Increased efficiency - very positive. Sales Reporting is Interactive and Light Years ahead of previous solution. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Discontinued Products Excellent figures for publications Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
