Geckoboard vs. Phrazor

Great value for the money. Excellent for smaller agencies with multiple projects and teams in a smaller space. We can quickly roll out mobile displays to help with a particular deployment push or monitoring a clients website engagement. It's also useful for showing live data without requiring analytics to run reports from a CRM, etc.

Phrazor is well suited for use in larger companies, especially those that operate globally and need to get region-specific or country-specific data and reports. I found Phrazor to be less appropriate for use in smaller companies (especially non-profit organizations) that may not benefit from extensive reporting. Non-profit organizations don't necessarily have projected sales growth and inventory costs.

My company did not renew due to changes in the organization.

With a simple interface and available templates, creating basic dashboards is easy. Obviously depending on the data you want to visualize, there may be higher learning curves. That being said, they have a huge amount of integrations and extensible frameworks. If you are using anything made in the past ten years there is an API function or integration that can get it talking to the platform. As such, it's pretty easy to hit the main data points you want and get it on a cheap display in front of your team.

Our company experienced some difficulty during implementation trying to get data imported and uploaded. We reached out to support and received much-needed assistance, and we were able to move forward with data importation. Several of our users, including myself, experienced some difficulty in understanding the system, so it took some time to use it fully. For a first-time user, there were almost too many filters and options to choose from.

The support levels vary based on the level of plan that you have but that's to be expected. Virtually everything except the Enterprise plan has basic chat/email support. While they are responsive they are not going to be much assistance in helping you figure out API calls or implementing 3rd party integrations. That is to be expected and the support community can pretty much get you in the right direction if you look.

Great! Anytime I needed assistance and reached out to support, I received amazing help, and everyone was always very nice. The reason I did not rate support a ten is that often the hold time was quite long. When you are in a time crunch and need data immediately, it is frustrating not to get immediate support.

Domo is more robust. We do use both because Geckoboard is really easy to show the rest of our team without the need for additional licenses.

I enjoyed using Phrazor better; however, as a new user, I was a bit frustrated getting started. Microsoft Power BI had more videos available online than I found. Phrazor had more adaptability and customization for our company, which overall made it a better fit over competitive products. My coworkers and I demoed Sisense, and we chose not to purchase it due to it not being a good fit.

• While we originally used this as an internal IS tool, we eventually have expanded it to be used by nearly every department.
• Because pricing is monthly, we can grow or decrease our usage based on our current client needs.
• Because it is low cost and easy to deploy, we can utilize it in place of considerable resources in analytics and reporting by delivering snapshots of data without pulling reports.

Incentivized

• Great tool for creating annual budgets.
• Reports and graphs that can be included in annual report - saved on marketing costs.
• Able to import from excel which is a cost-saving tool for our company.
