Lightning Tools Data Viewer vs. Mode Analytics

Lightning Tools Data Viewer is well suited for re-surfacing data and customizing its look and feel.

Mode is a clear category winner for how it easy it is to go from interactive analysis to professional quality reporting. You can easily do all your SQL and quite a bit of R/Python. If you want to quickly go from your database to simple charts, this is your pick. If you need to do heavier data modeling, scheduling jobs, or ML, you'll need something else, like Databricks. In my opinion, the quality of visualizations and some developer/analyst features make Databricks an unacceptable substitute.

• Data Viewer has a graph feature that is old school flat design. We loved the In House real 3D graph Lightning Tools program.

• Date ranges aren't always the most intuitive to set, strangely
• Faster refresh rates would be ideal
• Would love more dynamic mobile device integration (alerts, etc)

Lightning Tools Data Viewer is much easier and more powerful than Infowise similar viewer in their lineup. In this case, we use Data Viewer over the one offered by Infowise.

We used both Qlik and Mode at our organization. The mode was used a quick analysis SQL tool while Qlik was our enterprise BI solution.

• It allows us to do things that would take a great deal more time to duplicate in SharePoint
• It cuts down on ugly looking built in SP list layouts
• Users find it easy to access, thus this product is more productive

• Extremely positive. It's a key feature in our application.
• Were it not for the account management bit, Mode would be hands-down our recommendation for anyone looking for cloud BI.
