We collect information from multiple systems, including Work Management, Accounting, Excel, and proprietary Databases. We display the information for employee consumption, project statusing, and decision making.
We encourage our workers with updates to progress on our Key Success Indicators.
We produce project status charts using a feature-rich visualization tool, rather than the limited tools found in our individual applications.
  • Demonstrate progress towards Key Success Indicators
  • Present Data Visualizations sourced from disparate software systems
  • Reduce the number of private Excel databases
  • It is easy for me to create a visualization and then forget I created it.
  • When I created Domo visualizations, I kept up with the methods and tools every day. My role changed. I use Domo less and I forget all I might create with it.
Produce progress visualizations for software tools which have limited tools of their own.
Enable executives to learn one visualization tool instead of learning five.
Create person-specific information Dashboards which deliver the truth in a manner that fits the person's learning style.

We use Domo to visualise the information in our databases in a smart way; information pulled out from google analytics, traffic on our website, stats about our product, and personal/group trackers that we set up to record KPIs and/or progress reports, which we then sync to Domo to create cards.
  • Interactive platform.
  • Connectivity with other apps.
  • Collaborative work.
  • Easy to manage data visualisation.
  • Built-in formula/code editor (Beast Mode) to enhance chart creation.
  • At first, it is hard to get a hang of some of the more complex charts such as gauges. The guides are ok but hard to follow along and are just blocks and blocks of text. More interactive videos would be helpful to support the already existing material.
I believe that companies that record large amounts of data about their product, service employers KPIs, etc, can make the best out of Domo for reporting and data analysis, but if a company handles little data and is not recording this consistently, it will not be of much use.

Domo has been a fantastic tool for us and enables us to get customer and order data out of silos so that we can see the full customer journey. I was surprised that I was able to start creating cards the first time I used it: there was no need for in-depth training or practice. It's intuitive and easy to understand.
  • Connects with other apps.
  • Enables data visualization.
  • Provides insight into customer behavior.
  • Wish all of our users could have an account.
I have used Domo to track order information, locate spikes and trends, and gauge how well my team is performing.

Domo is used among a few departments. In Credit department, we use Domo to illustrate each strategic account overall impact. Seeing visual charts to report on our productivity has been very useful for focusing our attention on accounts in high reserve. Other teams use domo to evaluate product trends and shipping trends. My primary use is for key accounts. The problems Domo addresses is providing a visual chart is more valuable to the team and management than me showcasing just a list of numbers. The charts help tell a better story.
  • Making bar graphs, the ability to choose the date points for each axis.
  • Making pie charts, having multiple options for visuals.
  • Reporting trends and seeing the data as it progresses over time.
  • User friendly, Domo offers lots of modules to learn the program.
  • Domo at first can be an little overwhelming with all its capabilities, I would advise maybe a tutorial starting with smaller options with lower data points.
  • The Domo university isn't very user friendly. I tried to sign up for modules and it was very glitchy.
  • I feel I learned more by just playing around in Domo rather than sitting through the Domo university
Maybe in a smaller office it might not be of value, but for larger businesses it would be of value. A smaller company might be able to know their business more than a large graph could tell. A larger corporation that monitors large quantities of data and high volume orders, Domo would be a good fit.

It is being used across the company. It is providing true interactive reports for business users including senior executives. Domo is actively being used to create business performance dashboards and daily/weekly/monthly reports. Also, we are using Domo to receive alerts if something negative happens in business performance, which is very useful for many business users.
  • Easy-to-understand user interface
  • Connecting with other software and data sources
  • Communication capacity among users
  • Processing could be slow for very large datasets.
  • Pivot table functionality is limited.
  • It could use more data connectors to other software.
Domo would be a great tool if end users are open to learning how to create reports interactively. Users should be educated before full-scale deployment. Also, there should be a data engineering team dedicated to ensuring the quality of the Domo datasets. If the data quality is bad, then the effectiveness of Domo would be very low.

Domo is used across our entire company (sales, product, marketing, etc.). Domo makes it easy to get the information you need. We have several different data sources between our CRM, marketing automation system, data warehouse, and product so having all of this merged and compiled into a reports and dashboards is incredible and time saving.
  • Consolidates data from different sources
  • Makes it easy to review data without having to pull new reports all the time
  • Ease of use with filters and exporting
  • I do not build the reports and dashboards myself, I typically request for that info but it would be nice if it were more user friendly.
Domo is great when you need consolidated data in one place and have multiple data sources. We use it as our source of truth for reporting back on campaigns. Setting up Domo does require some resources and help from someone who can pull data using SQL, so if that is not available that might be tricky.

The Domo application is used across my entire organization, in all departments. It pulls data from all of the different reporting systems that are used across the company and creates a centralized dashboard. It helps our teams stay organized and easily locate where we need to make updates and changes in other systems to ensure our reporting is accurate.
  • All your data is in one place.
  • It was way more user friendly than complex platforms like Salesforce.
  • It has a variety of dashboard formats and creates easy-to-read reporting so we can track RFP statuses, wins/losses, revenue, etc.
  • It can be timely to build out custom reports.
  • It is very costly.
Domo is very well suited for my Account Management team to help track the progress of seller's RFP's so that we can assure the revenue forecasting is accurate. It helps track wins/losses and RFP statuses so that my team can easily spot any gaps that need to be updated in Salesforce.

Domo is used across the whole organization and it is our single source of truth and acts as our complete data management for Data Warehouse, Extract Transform Load (ETL), and Visualization platform. It is being used by every department in the organization and we extend it to our partners outside the organization as well.
  • Domo is very good at meeting multiple needs. It is a warehouse cum ETL cum Visualization platform, eliminating the need for various systems talking to each other.
  • Provides multiple options for ETL i.e. drag and drop ETL (Magic ETL), MySQL, and Redshift.
  • Has a wide range of data connection—over 600 data connectors, Excel Add-IN, ODBC connectors, etc.
  • The visualization definitely needs improvement.
  • Search capability on the platform is very rudimentary, not useful at all.
  • More option can be provided in customizing user profiles.
Domo is very well suited if you want a single product for most of your commonly used data needs. It does a good job of providing a warehouse, an ETL engine, a visualization platform thereby completing all the aspects needed to get your data journey rolling. It also has a robust set of API using Python, R, and Java to interact with the system which can help connect other systems to Domo.

Domo is being used by our organization to keep all of our data in one place that can be read and analyzed easily by our team. It is being used by most of our organization, as our operations team sends out reports from the software each week to the rest of the team. It solves the problem of the large amount of time it takes to generate reports, as this helps us to generate them quickly and easily without much effort.
  • Data aggregation.
  • Analysis.
  • Great interface.
  • Expensive.
  • Bugs.
  • Sometimes slow.
Domo is definitely appropriate if you are a medium to large company who can afford the software, but it does provide a tremendous amount of value. It may not be as useful for smaller companies who cannot afford the software.

We use Domo to track automatic assigning of emails and tickets for our technicians to work with. The system lets me look up the time and what the ticket was that was assigned to each of my technicians so I can track if they are properly assigning the tickets to work.
  • Track assigned tickets
  • Shows ticket details for what was assigned
  • Logs when the ticket was sent to the user via our dialer system
  • Often hard to run reports with
  • Sometimes tickets will not show up in the system at all
We use it for tracking the automatic assignment of tickets via our dialer system. Besides this I am not sure what else it would be useful for. The reporting on the software is usually helpful for determining answer time on an emailed request, but sometimes will be missing tickets when it is most important.

Domo has been an integral part of our attempt to manage multiple software applications. Because of the diversity of the platforms we use, Domo has helped us bring the information together in a usable form. We have faced considerable challenges implementing the system. But have found that it usually was one of the other platforms that was causing the issue.
  • Helps us spread information to different teams.
  • Connects multiple platforms.
  • Complexities of linking applications together.
  • Hard to customize for specific needs.
We use Salesforce with several of our teams, and integrating data from several other sources, and it has always been difficult. Pendo has been used to help us gauge our effectiveness with our customers, and Zendesk to manage CS issues, along with several other platforms. Domo has helped us bridge the information to help us create effective KPIs and have the data to support it.

Our organization consists of client teams that develop sales and marketing strategies and execute campaigns to achieve those strategies. We use Domo to measure the efficacy of our campaigns and our impact on customer sales behavior. It allows us to provide insights and make recommendations for future campaigns.
  • Data visualization.
  • Ease of filtering/drilling down to data.
  • Support.
  • Would be nice to have a wizard to help design the best visualizations.
Domo is great when you have large data sets to measure and report on. It’s able to export data and visualizations in a variety of formats, and easily accessible through the cloud. Also, great to have different internal and external client dashboards.

It is being used across the whole company. It is being used to help improve processes in every department and to have more insights into information that we haven't had before. This is being used in sales, marketing, support, etc. It is helping to understand the state of renewals and help to manage leads.
  • Automates dataflows
  • Allows for security on the row level
  • The data visualization aspect if working in analytics
  • Datasets alerts
  • R and Python integrations
Domo is well suited to automate data pulls and data flow runs to get real-time data. It needs improvement on the alerting side. Dataset alerts is a step in the right direction, however it has some flaws and issue working when rows are updates. If the alert system can be improved it will help to inform the right people immediately whenever an action needs to take place.

Domo is being used across the entire company. Domo is the only trusted reporting source for executives. Executive use enables adoption at a company wide level because people from all positions align with what the executives are viewing. It is solving business problems in all departments. We have a team of 7 that build reporting for each of their respective departments. This includes finance, HR, sales, engineering, product, marketing, client services.
  • Exceptional Transform area of the platform - any/all raw data can be manipulated and combined to create datasources that are very useful for our departments.
  • Visualization layer is clean and is very business presentable. Its simple but includes depth. Visuals can be created/used by all roles throughout our firm, its not limited to analysts.
  • Ability to communicate and talk about insights in the data - the communication tool is exceptional. I can @ mention specific users to bring attention to a discovery. I can start a private chat. I can annotate and communicate what I am seeing. I love it.
  • Mobile experience is excellent. When I am on the road i can actively monitor and engage with my team due to my Domo dashboard on my mobile device. Its amazing to run the business and not worry while away from the office.
  • Some user experience issues need to be addressed - but full features? Domo tends to do an excellent job when it comes to feature set.
Domo is an extremely versatile tool. Find an analyst or someone who is an expert in the platform and they can do wonders for your organization. All scenarios are appropriate as long as you have an SME for the type of content you would like to see. If you can dream it, you can built it in Domo - it's not a tool, it's a platform.

Domo is used across the whole organization. We use it for regular business intelligence and each department has the ability to build cards as needed to help monitor trends. Beyond BI, Domo helps each department align with other departments by holding both management and managees accountable to meet goals set by each party.
  • Domo is flexible, making it easy to integrate a number of datasources quickly.
  • Domo's UI is nice and friendly to business leaders.
  • Domo's integration with R/Python is a game-changer.
  • Domo Buzz is annoying and not helpful.
  • Building cards is easy, but as technology improves I'd expect things to get even easier to build.
  • I'd like to see more investment in the R/Python integration.
Domo is well-suited for business intelligence and high-level presentation of all sorts of metrics. Domo (or any BI tool) does not replace, and should not try to replace the critical role of tools like R or Python which allow for much deeper, verified analysis that should be accompanied with well thought out reasoning.

Domo is used across the organization in all departments, from execs down to team members. Provides a source of truth for company metrics.
  • Visualizations: many options with a very well designed/aesthetic.
  • Date ETL: all the tools you need to connect, transform and manipulate your data.
  • Alerts: have your data tell you when you need to take actions.
  • Data processing times can feel very slow. Often the longest portion of a data flow procedure is moving the data. If there were a way to do all of the transformations without moving the data that would be amazing.
Works great for almost every organization I can think of (any size, any industry).

Domo is used within the Sales and Marketing teams, but the most active users are in the Executive Team. Domo solves two problems: connecting and correlating data across different organization and platforms, allowing us to view values historically. For example, with Domo, we can see when we sent our emails in the past month and when users opened them. This data is in our CRM, but our CRM does not natively allow us to visualize it.
  • Connecting Data - Domo has a variety of connector, including Google Sheets, so practically all data can be inputted and correlated across a company.
  • Visualization - Domo has the ability to create a number of visualizations.
  • Calculated Metrics - In Domo you can create your own metrics using existing ones and manipulating them with formulas.
  • Intuitive ETL's - Domo's ETL function is pretty straightforward and easy to learn. I personally think the layout it fun to use sometimes.
  • Copying Reports - In Excel or Google Sheets, I like to make copies of similar reports and modify them as necessary for users. In Domo, makes copies of reports (called cards) but all copies are connected. So if you adjust the copy, it changes the original. This means a user has to recreate the report from scratch and then adjust it.
  • Unforgiving SQL - Domo does allow users to write their own SQL codes, which is great. However, Domo's SQL code is pickier than the other SQL database I've used (Metabase).
  • Text Alerts - Domo's alerts aren't always the smartest. Some of my dashboards are about the sales teams monthly performance and I get notified when there is a change of more than 20%. I always get notified at the start of the month that reports have changed from 'x' number to zero. This is expected because it's a monthly report and I hate getting texts about it. The only reason I don't term them off so I can be aware if something breaks in the middle of the month.
Domo is great when you want to see lots of values historically or see data you can see natively in a platform. As I mentioned earlier, Domo is the only way our Marketing and Sales teams can see when their emails were opened and compare the send time - this is an example of data I can't see natively.

Currently, we are in the development stages and testing it with Operations, Sourcing, and Clinical team. We would eventually like to fully have it in production and used across the whole organizations. Some of the business problems are lack of engagement in our Domo project and that our operators are too busy.
  • DOMO users can drill into the data quickly with ease.
  • It is very user-friendly for both the person creating cards and also for operators to use.
  • It is accessible through the app on the phone.
  • The new storytelling filtering reset button should reset both the filters on a card that is built and filters created elsewhere on the dashboard.
  • Would like a way to incorporate financial statements in a different format vs. just the table view.
Domo is well suited for our business, as we are a small company and still use Microsoft Excel for charts and graphs on many of our presentations. The presentations are on a recurring monthly occurrence so having these automated saves a lot of time. I cannot think of a scenario when Domo is not appropriate.

Domo is used to make sure everyone is on the same page with where we are at as a company and where are moving as a company. Visualizations in Domo are key and add some of the most value for our teams. It's important for us to have the ability to take data and present it in a way in which all teams can understand.
  • Visualizations are the best part about Domo.
  • Cloud access to everything.
  • Layout is intuitive and easy to use!
  • Cannot do SQL runs. This makes it heavily reliant on your engineering team to retrieve data.
  • No customer support unless you pay more. It's pretty pricey.
  • It's sooo expensive!
One of the best features is the ability to store data in the cloud, which gives us more flexibility to access data anywhere. Graphs are fairly easy to build in the product. Data is pushed and retrieved faster as a team, thus helping us roll out projections and past data to the whole team quickly.

Domo works best when your data has access to API feeds, otherwise, good luck...

It is also a tool which helps me to celebrate staff success and measure the impact of new initiatives over time.
  • Domo allows for a high level of flexibility in reporting by allowing me to customise reports based on a variety of factors over time. Because it updates in real time I can monitor results as evaluations are received.
  • Domo is simple and intuitive to use; the value of the outputs drives my interest in continuing to engage with Domo since it provides useful data quickly and easily.
  • Domo allows me to generate easy-to-read reporting to share with a wide range of stakeholders, quickly and accurately. The data can be exported in many formats allowing me to customise what I need for any given application / use.
  • I am satisfied with Domo just the way it is.
We use Domo in my team for student evaluations and it's very well suited to this purpose. I think that challenges can be experienced that result from questionnaire design, rather than from Domo itself. It is important to keep the evaluations fresh and design them as tailored to the individual student as possible, since students lose interest in questionnaires that are repetitive, especially when they are being surveyed several times in one study period.

We are using Domo as our complete Business Intelligence Solution to replace our previous Data Warehouse and Reporting tools. The Business Intelligence team is building the back-end data sources, transformations and cards to replace our previous reports. These cards/reports are available across the organization (based on role permissions). Once the initial build-out is completed, we will be rolling out access to business staff to use as a self-service BI tool for their individual departmental needs.
  • Provides data acquisition, transformation and visualization all administered from one cloud-based tool. No switching between tools or cobbling different products together.
  • Provides GUI and MySQL interfaces for data manipulation for both entry-level and advanced users.
  • Huge amount of data connectors out of the box, plus you can easily create your own custom connectors.
  • The product does not provide a separate development, test and production environment. Nor does it allow objects to be promoted from one environment to another. This makes development work more tedious than it needs to be.
  • It is currently not possible to track the lineage of a specific field from data connector acquisition thru transformation(s) into the visualization (cards). You must manually track it through each object. Changing a fieldname throughout the environment can be time-consuming.
  • Does not provide a simple means to generate a data dictionary for the datasets that are constructed for reporting. You can access table/field names and datatypes but it does not include descriptions of the data.
Well suited for Organizations with small IT or business intelligence teams who want to provide self-service BI.

We starting using Domo for analysis of marketing campaigns and lead generation, we've since expanded and it's an integral part of analyzing and shedding insights on all areas of our business from sales performance, website and product usage to inventory and consumption of inventory! It's relied on by senior executives for daily decisions, product owners for monthly re-alignment, and our sales field to maximize their sales opportunities and customer management.
  • For years, our company president wanted visualize and easily find insights from a dataset that was "previously unanalyzable" due to its complexity and size - we were able to load the data into Domo and provide easy-to-read graphs that drilled into sensible data, this only took a few days of cleaning and building!
  • Google Analytics is relied on by us (like just about everyone else) for website usage. We have several GA profiles, previously we had to manually enter or export key datapoints to visualize all properties on one graph. By easily setting up imports to Domo we can now see trends across all of our websites (in different GA properties) on one graph (it sounds small, but was very impactful)
  • Domo also has enabled us to query and easily report on some detailed usage that would previously have been several manual steps and quite cumbersome within GA directly.
  • We (of course) would like our sales field to focus on selling, and they aren't always great at numbers and reports - we've been able to create super easy to use reports that our field can use on mobile or desktop for an at a glance look to better manage and optimize their sales opportunities.
  • When changing cards from one dataset to another any beast modes are not carried over, it would often make life easier if there was an easier way to copy beast mode calculations from one dataset to another.
  • Domo documentation, university and Dojo are extremely helpful when we run into problems. However, when support beyond that is needed their help desk seems to have a hefty backlog - the amount of time to resolve tickets is frustrating sometimes.
Domo works fantastically for our needs. I've been a "marketing person" with some analytical skills - Domo made it easy for me to almost really be an analyst, maybe even close to a data scientist. It did take a bit of work for me to learn basic SQL and some other things. We're visualizing and analyzing many different types of datasets which is really exciting and senior executives like having one source to find almost anything they're looking for. My recommendation really depends on your needs and skill levels.

Our company takes our raw data from all aspects of our operations and we build departmental Domo reports. The best part of Domo is how you can change the assumptions on tables and charts instantly. This graphical display is a time saver. I also like that all of our company users get to see, share this information. Domo helps identify Trends in the data that we track. We can then initiate action items to address any issue or trend. I also like the ability to give a senior manager or CEO a Report in minutes instead of creating an entirely new spreadsheet
  • Changing the data assumptions like time-frame, quantities, customer information, revenue, cost, defect types, etc in a matter of seconds.
  • Sharing relevant charts or data tables with employees during meetings.
  • Cross-referencing. Clicking on a single data point and this takes me to the next related report.
  • I find Domo difficult to navigate. I don't use it daily, so I'm not as proficient as I would like.
  • An easier way to print out graphs, charts, and tables.
I still need to utilize MS Excel for specific data tracking that isn't Domo-friendly. For example, leveraging Pivot Tables is a powerful tool.

Currently, we are using Domo in our Operations and Marketing Departments. We are using this for reporting and trending with operational and financial numbers. It helps us get quick reporting and overview of our franchises' business health. It helps in bringing in POS data and QuickBooks accounting data to one location.
  • Dashboard displays
  • Multiple, flexible ways of doing the same thing
  • Great response to users and basing future development on user feedback
  • Powerful nimbleness in adjusting what data Domo is displaying by user
  • Need to develop a Beast mode developer so they can be managed outside of card development
  • ETLs need to be a bit simpler to use
  • I'd like to be able to filter off the same field twice (ie, store # > 100 AND store # 2, 4, & 6)
Domo is great for mid-sized to large companies with a team of people dedicated to developing and managing it. It's not great for small teams or 1 person development teams. The tool is too powerful and robust for a small implementation team.

We use Domo in multiple lines of business, including our community organizing, marketing metrics, programmatic work, and some financial reporting. We use it to roll up numbers for performance metrics across the organization. We have users who log in to use detailed reports, and some who only have reports delivered to them.
  • Graphical representation of data
  • Access at different levels
  • Ability to pull in many different tools
  • Ability for non-login users to dig deeper in reports (in web interface)
  • More user-friendly roll ups
Domo is well suited to roll up data stored in disparate tools -- it is so helpful to have one place to look at charts and metrics. As our other tools improve (like Salesforce), Domo is less relevant for our data directly related to our non-profit's contacts and program work. Additionally, our fundraising function lives in Salesforce, so I can see us relying more on it alone.
