Looker vs. Pigment

As a Sales, it suited me to use such well-developed software with a nice dashboard that could navigate between my prospects, visualize the numbers of clients, and check my achievements for each quarter. That would help me understand my performance and record the data I needed for myself as a salesperson.

Planning, financials, and even sales tracking are greatly helpful for project planning. This makes product planning easy; you can simply see what the industry is demanding and what should be produced more in coming quarters. If you have really huge data, then this sometimes crashes.

• Show visited pages - sessions, pageviews - which programs are viewed the most.
• Displays session source/medium views to see where users are coming from.
• It shows the video titles, URLs, and event counts so we can monitor the performance of our videos.
• It gives a graphic face to the numbers, such as using bar charts, pie graphs, and other charts to show user trends or which channels are driving engagement.
• Our clients like to see the top pages visited for a month.
• I like the drop-and-drag approach, and building charts is a little easier than it was before.

• Helping organizations assess the impacts of various business decisions effectively​

• I wish I could get more granular in the Google ad data, such as down to the campaign type, instead of having to see only all campaigns.
• The setup can be time-consuming if you're not using the product regularly.
• Editing the dashboard requires a few logins; I wish it was more seamless.

I give it this rating because it deems as effective, I am able to complete majority of my tasks using this app. It is very helpful when analyzing the data provided and shown in the app and it's just overall a great app for Operational use, despite the small hiccups it has (live data).

Looker is relatively easy to use, even as it is set up. The customers for the front-end only have issues with the initial setup for looker ml creations. Other "looks" are relatively easy to set up, depending on the ETL and the data which is coming into Looker on a regular basis.

Pigment helped us a lot to improve our data integration and financial planning processes, which helps us to save some time on these tasks. By automating all the data imports from the other tools we use, we don't need to do all these tasks manually. And details reports and analysis helped us to cut data preparation time by at least 60%

No objections

Somehow resources heavy, both on server and client. I recommned at least 50Mbs data rate and high performance desktop comouter to be abke to run comolex tasks and configure larger amount of data. On the other hand, the client does not need to worry when viewing, the performance is usually ok

Never had to work with support for issues. Any questions we had, they would respond promptly and clearly. The one-time setup was easy, by reading documentation. If the feature is not supported, they will add a feature request. In this case, LDAP support was requested over OKTA. They are looking into it.

Looker gives you options to integrate external APIs with great ease. Our data analytics team is able to easily use multiple data sources as input to the Looker dashboard, and everything is consolidated in one single Dashboard. You also have an option for Shared folders to be accessed by multiple people. The reporting system is perfect and has a wide range of options/reporting options that can be implemented.

Unlike other tools, Pigment provides seamless data integration and imports from other tools. Importantly integrations are most useful for us, and it has integrations with most of the tools we use.

Perfect price to performance

• Looker has a poignant impact on our business's ROI objectives. As an advertising exchange we have specific goals for daily requests and fill, and having premade Looks to monitor this is an integral piece of our operational capability
• To facilitate an efficient monthly billing cycle in our organization, Looker is essential to track estimated revenue and impression delivery by publisher. Without the Looks we have set up, we would spend considerably more time and effort segmenting revenue by vertical.
• Looker's unique value proposition is making analytical tools more digestible to people without conventional analytical experience. Other competing tools like Tableau require considerably more training and context to successfully use, and the ability to easily plot different visualizations is one of its greatest selling points.

• Capacity to anticipate better (forecasting accuracy improved)
• Single source of truth for internal and external financial KPIs
• Agility to compare scenarios and making decisions based on that
