GoodData vs. Logi Info (Logi Analytics Platform)

GoodData is well suited when you have a lot of data sources and you need a single location where you can pipe the data into and then create insights/charts/analytics based on the data you've piped in there. It's also great if you want to customize how the datasets interact with each other and what that logical data model looks like. Super super intuitive there. I think it's not great for data presentation if your product is presenting data to your customers. For internal use, it's great

Well Suited - It's very easy for a non-developer to make clear/easily understood important data displays Great options for displaying data, UI provides great assistance helping you determine what chart, graph etc., to utilize for peak output. Saves tons of developer hours by allowing non-developers to be able to create and design things. Less Suited - It's not a big fan of displaying 1000 page PDFs but with adequate setup and drill downs, you can turn that huge PDF into 2 pages of what you actually need.

• It's a good platform that has a flexible pricing plan which means that users can get hands-on service free at the start.
• GoodData provides its users with excellent charts and drill-down analysis which makes complex large data sets so simplified and easy to understand and interpret.
• For me it is so convenient because everything just gets saturated on a single page.

• The ability to easily integrate data across multiple data platforms
• The product is easy to implement and learn
• The elemental design allows for recycling of concepts and features across various reports and output
• The security was easy to implement into our existing environment
• The number of options available for data manipulation and presentation, including Scheduling and Caching data, makes it easy to solve any problem or create content for any request
• Logi's Support Portal staff are absolutely top notch. They are responsive and knowledgeable. Due to the elemental design (see above), it is easy to communicate concepts to and from Logi Support via code samples and/or sample applications. The sample applications which we have received from Logi Support have formed some of the core concepts of our Logi Developer training!

• No option to visualise a pin on a map
• Custom metrics and variables can be tricky to get right
• Hard to gauge where you are in terms of workspace data limits
• Adding and removing DB fields from models is not as intuitive as it could be
• Data model loading logs can be quite dense and hard to read, esp. when new
• Setting up models to correctly reference between DB tables takes practise
• No option to limit the amount of data a model loads once the table is included

• Logi Studio is currently only available on Windows. I understand the backend is ASP.net but it would be nice to have more flexibility in this given their software can also be java-based (we run their software on a Linux server using java).
• Logi Info keeps all files as XML, which is fine and actually helps in terms of scripting report creation. The issue is that the majority of settings can only live on a server instead of a database. They do allow reports to now live in a database, but other aspects (such as users saving bookmarks and reports) cannot be and are all saved directly on the server.

Each client I have worked with and spoken too has renewed their GoodData subscription. I know of not one to date that has cancelled. The GoodData platform has a very high rate of renewal from the discussions I have had with their internal teams as well

Logi Analytics is a great solution if you need just the user interface. However there are other tools stronger at the overall data flow which include a user interface as part of their product.

After comparing over 20 solution, this is probably not the best in class but the feature set is very competitive. If budget is of no issue, solution like Looker is probably more popular and robust but if you do not want to spend every bit of your budget just for your BI tooling, most users would find GoodData reasonably good enough especially if you are on the SME level

I am giving 9 rating because the Logi Info still needs to improve on the tutorials part and make it easy for the beginners. Otherwise, it's a very good analytics tool which offers more than 20 types of visualization. It's predictive analysis feature and easy to embed with technologies make it stand out in the market.

We are approximately one month since go-live. There has been one short outage.

Performance on refreshing metrics works well.

The fast and comprehensive responses we got from GoodData regarding the doubts we had experienced while starting to use the products and metrics were of great help in ensuring the metrics we were obtaining were accurate to what we wanted to know about our customers' experience and our product areas of opportunity.

The support process is bit slow and has a good scope improvement but overall it's good as team is very supportive. They generally take 1-2 days time to respond emails sent to them but some times a delay is also expected. Overall, I did not face any major issues using the service.

Petr was a rock star - patient, knowledgeable, clear and easy to work with.

GoodData implementation team was professional and courteous

Thorough, professional and on time.

We chose gooddata compared to other products because gooddata is easier for ordinary people like me to use. Apart from being easy, gooddata also has many features which are more than enough to help my work and costs incurred by gooddata are lower than when I use other products. Thank you goodata for helping our work

It can be embedded on top of a website for direct analysis. I feel this is a way faster and a better solution. This is like an integrated solution. That's why the firm selected Logi Analytics for quick insights on customer behavior and data.
