    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.

    [Plotly Chart Studio is] a great tool to make visualizations on a web based portal. For python developers, it can ease of some burden of writing code again and again for the same thing and also refreshing visualizations on old scripts when data changes. All in all, a simple yet effective tool for your report generation and visualization needs[.]

    • Connects to almost every kind of data source like SQL, Excel, MS Access, flat files and more.
    • Charts get saved to the repository and are re-used by multiple users.
    • No need of manual intervention in order to refresh the charts every time the data gets changed.

    Cons
    ThoughtSpot
    • 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)

    • Lack of customer support
    • Sometimes fails to visualize extremely large datasets ( probably also due to computer resource constraints)

    For the advanced user already familiar with Python. It is just the same tool, already managed and connected to the data.

    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.

    Return on Investment
    ThoughtSpot
    • 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.

    • Improvement in productivity as charts can be shared with teams and feedback can be collected, consolidated and incorporated in the design and charts.
    • Charts are aligned with the organization theme and colors and one doesn't need to put in effort every time to do that.
    • No upfront capital expenditure and minimum user criteria helps the organization to keep the costs down.
