What is Geckoboard?

Users can build dashboards directly in a browser with a straightforward, drag-and-drop interface, and bring important numbers, metrics and KPIs out of lifeless reports and spreadsheets. Geckoboard aims to make key data more engaging for everyone, with visualizations that anyone can understand at a glance, and that update automatically to always stay up-to-date.

Geckboard is a relatively inexpensive way to get actionable data in front of your team quickly and easily.
Initially Geckoboard was used by and for IT/IS staff exclusively. We used several (free at the time) dashboards to monitor system uptime, internal ticketing system SLA, ongoing project statuses (like AWS glacier uploads, file server migrations) as well as a somewhat makeshift Kanban board/task management system by using integrations from other platforms like Planview, etc. In fact, it was so quick and extensible, we often changed and added/removed dashboard frequently. We used wall mounted iMacs and rolling carts with HDTVs and Mac Minis to place dashboards when and where we wanted them. As the agency staff took notice, we began receiving requests from Project Management to create boards to observe things like deployments, website feature rollouts, app development, and client engagement and uptime displays.
- Relatively cheap for what it is Over the years the pricing has gotten more restrictive but if you are rolling your own hardware (thin clients on TVs, etc.) and you are all local in an office it is still affordable.
- Lots of different integrations that don't require coding. From SYsAdmins monitoring AWS or VPN functions to counting website visitors and engagement data to showing CRM reporting.
- Clean and simple interface. Automatic refreshing that is browser independent.
- Pricing model has gotten more restrictive such as limiting to number of TVs, etc.
- The 'support' is bare bones, you will have to learn how to implement your solutions on your own.
- Limited number of database connections means that we would have to pay a huge amount to keep all of our potential dashboards live at a given time.

- While we originally used this as an internal IS tool, we eventually have expanded it to be used by nearly every department.
- Because pricing is monthly, we can grow or decrease our usage based on our current client needs.
- Because it is low cost and easy to deploy, we can utilize it in place of considerable resources in analytics and reporting by delivering snapshots of data without pulling reports.
We are a Google shop and our Analytics and Reporting team have and use GDS. However, Geckoboard can output some of the same types of data (albeit maybe not as granular) and can be used by a wide swath of our users (including project managers, account execs, developers, etc.). We can also save and reuse boards for similar products and get our data in front of the eyes that need to see it quickly without a lot of fuss.

Share high-level, impactful data via beautifully presented (and easily-shared) dashboards.
While the majority of our Geckoboard dashboards are accessible by most of our employees, there are a very small subset of regular Geckoboard users (primarily data analytics, hardware operations, and product management). In the oft-found overpopulated business tool scope, Geckoboard provides users with any level of data analysis experience to quickly and easily access a dashboard.
- User self-help - the video tutorials and a robust publicly accessible knowledgebase.
- Geckoboard can aggregate data from a number of other apps into a singular dashboard.
- Sleek, dark UI.
- No mobile application solutions (as far as I am aware). In order to share my beautiful dashboards with a non-Geckoboard account user, I need to hop on a browser.
- No support for ad hoc reporting -- if this were a feature, I'd be happy to drive my presentations to executive staff purely as

Geckoboard is currently being used to display relevant ecommerce stats to the organistion in general, starting first with IT, then has moved out to a wider audience. This allows users to provide focused, timely metrics to stakeholders at a glance, instead of having to dig into Google Analytics directly.
- Simple to use and configure.
- A good set of pre-built integrations to pull data back and summarise on a dashboard.
- Excellent support! They actually respond when you ask them questions and are very thorough with their response.
- A bit more flexibility in the number of columns would be nice.
- Ability to scale to mobile device (web).
- App capabilities are missing on Android.
- New Relic APM and Cyfe
Geckoboard is just a lot simpler to use than the others I have used in the past.

Geckoboard allows us to see all out marketing metrics real time, in one place, across the entire department. We work in hospitality so weeks are like months. We use Geckoboard to see real time analytic data and make decisions on KPIs instantly.
- The Price. Geckoboard is affordable simply stated. It's affordable for both large and small organizations.
- The Service. Anytime I have had a question or want to share feedback, the Geckboard team has responded to me nearly immediately.
- It's simple. Visually, the product has a great UI and is not overly complicated like many other dash-boarding suites. It's also simple to use, simple to integrate, and simple to understand.
- Not a must have, but unless you are decent with CSS, some style options would be nice from the user end.
