Considered Both Products	ThoughtSpot Verified User Chose Mode Tableau is a huge pain to edit or create dashboards, by comparison. It can make better looking visualizations, but in practice, letting users drill down and change dimensions slows the end user experience so much that it's often not worth it. Looker is amazing for data modeling, … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Mode 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. Incentivized Helpful? Devindra Sooklall Data Management in Engineering at Numerator (Market Research, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Mode I've used other BI tools such as Spotfire and Mode is by far the better solution. It is far more stable, less susceptible to errors/needs to reload/re-format reports, and overall more user-friendly. Spotfire might have some deeper functionality for absolute power users, but for … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Mode Mode Analytics is better for us than most -- because of its white-label feature, its security-first posture, and the fact that you can go directly to SQL. Incentivized Helpful? Jacob Rossi Help Systems Analyst in Engineering at Lyft (Transportation/Trucking/Railroad, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Mode In my opinion Mode Analytics has an edge on much of the competition due to the intuitive and powerful custom dashboard creation interface. I can create dashboards for stakeholders that are self explanatory and easy to make conclusions from. In other respects, it's very much at … Incentivized Helpful? Rita Lo Analytics Lead at Lyft Inc. (Internet, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Mode Mode [Analytics] has a shorter learning curve and is better for starter analysts who are not yet Python fluent. They also require very little setup for report viewers to consume data, making it a more optimal solution for team members on the ground. Incentivized Helpful? Alexandre Rezende Quantitative Researcher in Finance and Accounting at Save (Financial Services, 1-10 employees) Chose Mode Mode is the best for the advanced user with advanced use cases. Even creating a simple report will require an SQL query. No drag-and-drop interface for querying data. But it is best for the advanced user already familiar with Python or R and SQL. The other products are more … Incentivized Helpful?

Likelihood to Recommend	ThoughtSpot 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. Incentivized Verified User Read full review
Pros	ThoughtSpot It allows me to undertake data visualization tasks by creating really insightful charts and dashboards It allows for easy sharing and work collaboration on data analysis tasks Mode has an easier to use SQL editor as well I love how it organizes all our SQL data tables into easy-to-view data we can draw insights on Incentivized Kofi Obo Wood Head of Operations Read full review
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) Incentivized Jacob Rossi Help Systems Analyst Read full review
