What is GoodData?
GoodData powers modern BI for the modern data stack. It is a business intelligence platform that provides the creation, delivery, and automated management of analytics at any scale. GoodData experts help businesses build data strategies, create new products, and maximize their data ROI.
At a high level, GoodData’s composable data and analytics platform provides self-service analytics, low-code/no-code interfaces, embeddable data visualization, and application integration. The platform also provides an end-to-end pipeline, including data ingestion, preparation, and transformations. GoodData’s composable architecture allows businesses to integrate with existing infrastructure and implement analytics solutions for employees, customers, or business partners.
The headless BI engine is a key part of GoodData’s analytics platform: It is built to scale with containerized microservices, managed as a code, and separates the analytical backend from the consumption layer. The user can connect any application, data platform, or visualization tool to the engine's semantic layer — via APIs and standard interfaces — and consume the same consistent analytics in real time, anywhere.
The vendor describes the platform as:
Powerful and easy to use analytics for any skill level, including business users without technical experience
Flexible in pricing options for companies of all sizes
A modularized solution designed for developers in mind
Robust and flexible in data integration options

Quick to learn, good documentation, pretty basic.
We use GoodData via our project management platform[,] Mavenlink. It's integrated into the platform and serves our project reporting needs.
[GoodData] handles all project management reporting.
- [GoodData] has good documentation with plenty of native and user-created examples
- This may be due to how GoodData is integrated into Mavenlink (our PM tool) but data is only refreshed every half hour, so pulling data in real-time is not possible.
GoodData was implemented within our organization to be able to measure what type of questions and requests our customers had and in which ways we could implement changes and improvements on our product and processes to guarantee customer satisfaction and drive up conversion rates. Additionally, we found new ways to use GoodData to balance our staffing and recognize variables in our rush hours and times of greater occupancy based on customer incoming flow.
GoodData addresses all sorts of issues for our business. We implemented it as a way to report on agent quality and process churn. We also used it to measure the need for changes to our processes and products in order to improve customer satisfaction but also drive up conversion rates and capitalize on revenue. It allowed us to exploit new revenue streams at the same time we optimized revenue opportunities for different markets based on price flexibility and demand studies.
- Reporting on consumer trends and satisfaction.
- Data analysis on process implementation and acceptance.
- Measurable reports on products' price flexibility and areas of opportunity.
- Availability of tutorials on how to create and configure data and reports.
- Ease of understanding the meaning of each metric.
- Frequency of report updates.

GoodData - tying together disparate data.
We are using GoodData as a visualization and analytics tool to allow our clients to gather valuable information across a number of disparate data sources.
- Provides easy linking of disparate data sources that typically would be very difficult to analyze in any meaningful way.
- Ease of design. You don't have to have extensive knowledge of the product to be able to design attractive and powerful reports, dashboards, etc.
- Easy to integrate into custom applications. Whether it be i-framing or white label, GoodData provides an easy solution for integrating dashboards into your applications.
- Limited customization options for report/dashboards design. You are kind of locked in to their chart color options, placement of certain element (i.e. chart legend), etc.
- No intuitive way to handle fiscal year calendars. A custom solution needs to be built in order to handle variable fiscal calendars.
- Learning MAQL programming language is necessary to be able to use the product meaningfully.

My vision of data analysis in Peru
Business intelligence is recently being used in my country and Gooddata is an excellent digital tool that allows you to discover trends and new business opportunities thanks to its ease of use, and options that allow you to upload data manually and automatically. Dashboards and Insights are easy to create and can be exported to various formats. The ease of running in the cloud gives it extra value.
Identification of trends that allow timely corrections to be made in business management and also discover new business opportunities. All this is based on the historical information of the company.
- fast implementation
- manual and automatic data loading
- easy creation of insights and dashboards
- Spanish version
- Representation and technical support in Latin America
- More automatic loading options from various ERP's
GoodData is an Embedded Business Intelligence (BI) platform that helps us POC report before it is built into the standard product package. Reports that do not justify being productized can be delivered as a value-added service for our customers. This allows us to cater to both the low and high end of the market with different levels of customization.
It is a cost-effective and easy-to-scale solution to provide embedded business intelligence. After evaluating around 20 over products, this is probably the one that has the gentle curve on scaling and initial startup cost. It is also fairly user-friendly except for the initial setup but the support quickly sorts it out after a couple of emails. Pricing wise there are some additional expenses for some modules that were not presented upfront but even with those taken into consideration, it is still the best in the cost.
- scaling
- user friendly
- feature rich
- initial setup
- cost transparency
- ease to signup
We use GoodData to process data into visual reports. We then embed those reports on websites for clients to view.
BI by processing and scheduling the update process of new data. It also solves our need to display analytics to stakeholders
- Great customer service
- Knowledgable help desk resources to help with any step of the GoodData process
- Intuitive dashboards
- Custom formulas could use some work. I feel it is restrictive and not straightforward for a more technical user. I would like there to be a large library of methods that allow you to manipulate the data. Methods like slicing or finding the substring or index of a string. Also methods for other data types for numbers and so forth.
- Increase the number of data log formats you accept as input into your platform. They currently provide CSV format for data logs but they don't have options for JSON, W3C Extended log format, and others. If they make the process to import data very easy then it will save customers from needing to convert it to CSV themselves.

Very GoodData
We use GoodData as an embedded analytics solution to allow our customers to analyze and dissect the data produced by our product.
Customers are constantly seeking custom reports for specific use cases. GoodData puts the power in the customer's hands and allows them to define what they want to display and empowers my organization to provide flexible guardrails.
- Customer Support
- Onboarding
- Embedded Analytics
- They are in the process of transitioning from older documentation in their knowledge base which can be confusing when using the new user interface and messaging doesn't completely align with what you see.
- More flexibility around feature enablement
we used to be a reseller of GoodData. Additionally, we used the platform for both internal and customer-facing analytics focused on data consumption of their GoodData product. personally speaking, GoodData was smooth and did not represent a steep learning curve for new adopters (if compared to other products on the market).
GoodData focuses on the visualization of data from any kind of resource (Google Analytics, data warehouse, CRM, etc.). When presenting GoodData to the regular audience, who did not know it yet, I used an example of MS Excel and its Graph feature. Well, GoodData is much more effective and allows for many more resources to be plugged in.
- Connecting the data inputs
- Building data model
- Easy way to design the dashboards and graphs
- Sharing the dashboards
- Support on the SQL command line they have built-in
- Pricing policy

Great tool for data iteration
I used GoodData to build an interactive view on a public dataset with my brand colors and some customization. This allowed me to guide viewers on what the data highlights. So they can focus on the geographic display of each category and select the categories they care about the most.
Give a qualitative visualization to data that refers to the quantity of categories.
- Easy to use
- Interactive
- Fast to display
- It doesn’t allow view without login while it should
- It can limit comparative analysis
- I wished it dealt with Big Data from start

Augusto's GoodData Review
We are implementing GoodData in our clients as an upsell. By this moment, we are still building their dashboard in PowerBI, but it takes us too much time, so we are changing to GoodData, and leaving them building their own metrics, saving us the time of building dashboards. And one more important feature is the white labeling, so they will use, it as if they were using Rabbot, and not a third service.
First, and the most important, the White labeling BI, and the flexibility and liberty to our customers.
- Whitelabeling
- Analytics
- Easy to embed
- Data transform directly in the platform
- Some functions are a little hard to perform, if you don't know how to do them
- We miss also a filter in the Data modeling

Good Data for embedded and white-labeled analytics
We use GoodData to build reporting dashboards that are integrated into our own product. Our SaaS product serves many customers, and the GoodData dashboards are stylized such that they fit seamlessly into our product -- our users do not know they are using GoodData. We appreciate this while label aspect.
Good Data allowed us to deploy a reporting platform with some significant initial investment, but very little need for ongoing maintenance and continued investment from our internal engineering team. We are now able to add additional reporting features quickly without engaging our internal team at all.
- Visual cohesion with our product.
- Deployment of multiple customers.
- Customer support and services.
- Training on how to build on top of the platform without using their team.
- Pricing and speed for initial rollout.
- Better geographic charts.

GoodData - A Business Intelligence (BI) Engine
Embedded Business Intelligence (BI) is the integration of self-service Business Intelligence (BI) Tools into normally used business applications. GoodData is one of the names which comes to mind from Embedded Business Intelligence (BI) Tools. GoodData provides growth through analytics. As a user of GoodData, I feel that GoodData is user-friendly and in sync with a lot of industry-standard data analysis and reporting tools.
GoodData has some of the best reporting tools available in the market today. I personally feel that GoodData
has been a catalyst in advancing the global standard for intelligence at work through robust dashboards, custom insights, and unmatched governance options. It has proven to be a helpful and useful platform.
- It's a good platform that has a flexible pricing plan which means that users can get hands-on service free at the start.
- GoodData provides its users with excellent charts and drill-down analysis which makes complex large data sets so simplified and easy to understand and interpret.
- For me it is so convenient because everything just gets saturated on a single page.
- Whilst GoodData is positive, it is also negative as I have found some limitations associated with GoodData as well. With experience in using the software of GoodData, I feel like there is a fluctuation in availability to maintain the code of the dashboards and workspaces.
- GoodData just has limited ways to securely transfer information between our systems and our client's systems.
We use GoodData for data analysis and data mining purposes. We have a host of customer tickets that come into Zendesk and GoodData makes it easier for us to process and analyze the data. We also have several dashboard and insights setup enabling team to get a quick glimpse of the health of the system, what items need immediate attention, which customer is reaching a tipping point/escalation, etc. GoodData ability to automatically mail data/reports makes it easier for the team to consume the same.
Ability to analyze data and draw meaningful conclusions help us understand the pattern of support requests that are coming in. These data points also help understand what the customer's exact pain-points are and areas of our application which is contributing to these problems. With this we are able take steps to reduce incoming support tickets volumes thereby freeing up resource need/dependency.
- Data consolidation
- Data Analytics
- Customisable dashboards

Focused, good at what they do, exhibits an expertise in their field. Platform good for end-users
GoodData provides an analytics engine that supports B2B implementation and white labeling. Their comprehensive API design allows for greater control over the user experience compared to most market offerings, enabling a near seamless transition between their software and another. Most recently, they've released a new set of products that allows even greater control over how a customer can use their engine in combination with 3rd party data warehousing platforms. GoodData provided us the analytics piece that could be tied into our software without it being a disruptive experience for the end user.
Gives us the ability to take data from an operational source and optimizes performance of of processing it for analytical and reporting purposes.
- Ability to embed and white-label.
- Simplified experience for non-technical users.
- Fantastic Implementation team.
- This is not a platform for data scientists.
- Poor ability to maintain code versioning of their workspaces and dashboards.
- Limited ways to securely transfer information between your system and theirs.
GoodData helps us save time and manpower in creating easy to use and navigate reports and get them to the right audience member within our company. GoodData enables us to splice up data in the ways we need to, from specific time entries to grouping projects by custom fields. By using gooddata to create tables and graph views, we can create easy to use and navigate dashboards.
- Easy to customize and create metrics using MAQL
- Easy to filter reports
- Limited flexibility and options while creating reports.
- Tough to customize views and designs.

GoodData Review
GoodData is being used by specific parts of our organization because of the large size and high number of employees and departments. GoodData helps resolve a large number of issues. We use Good Data to manage the metrics that drive our business. Good Data provides a great way to manage this. You can see all of the important metrics from one clean dashboard.
- Excellent charts and drill down analysis. Everything on one page.
- Excellent integration with other databases and software.
- Great support and mobile app availability. All these features makes this software very useful.
- To make any adjustments to the data flowing into the tool you need expert help.
- The tool is pricy. Just like other BI tools, this tool also proves expensive.
- It is difficult to use. It requires extensive training and support.

GoodData is here to stay- Monetize your data efficiently.
Our organization is primarily a computer software firm which provides speech and imaging applications in the industry of healthcare and developing speech recognition applications. The products are targeted for various categories of customers like giant healthcare research hospitals, mobile and application development firms which need platforms like Siri. To get an accurate insight on business operations and performance in a timely manner andd to monetize the data coming from different vendors, we use GoodData. Updated and pertinent role and client based information is available across the firm on a daily basis. The visualizations and dashboards give us a great insights regarding the same.
- The platform provides a very robust data infrastructure and business intelligence tools to support the data engineers and analysts. It also has a very capable and user friendly visualization/reporting interface for the end user.
- It is an excellent analytics platform for beginners as well. The resources available online are in good number and learning guides are easy to understand.
- Single-Sign-in functionality of GoodData allows integration with other enterprise platforms very easily.
- GoodData also provides excellent implementation consulting services and post-implementation customer service.
- I would like to have tools for automated project backups and restores, user provisioning. Presently this can be achieved through API's, but would prefer to have a specific and dedicated GoodData tool for this.
- The pricing might not be very attractive if you happen to be a small scale business and plan to venture out in the area of Data Monetization.
- The process of making reports and conducting inquiries is difficult. It requires to write a little bit of code. So if you are not using ETL (Extract Transform Load), then probably you don't need such a technical product.
October 03, 2016
Get things done. Fast and for many.
We used GoodData to distribute reports, a dashboard and insights across whole organisation. It's well prepared for self-service and explanatory BI, features which people sadly almost never use by themselves.
- It's in a cloud and perfectly works in your browser. It has the usability you would expect.
- It's simple to learn and amazingly fast for everyday work. You can train power users very quickly.
- Logic.
- Embeding just works.
- Price and speed for bigger data sets.
- It's not above your database, you have to load data there.

GoodData Rocks
We resell GoodData as the analytics component of our SAAS product. Our product services an industry vertical and as such it needs robust analytics highly specific to the use case to be embedded within it. This analytic capability needs to be highly configurable as well.
- Highly visual dashboards
- Very straightforward for users to comprehend and use
- Easy to make changes to reports and dashboards
- Real time analytics are not yet possible
- Managing a large number of client projects as an OEM requires some manual work arounds
- Some admin capabilities such as advanced user data filtering lack UI tools and have to be administered in JSON commands or similar obscure mechanisms

Self service BI with GoodData
GoodData is used as a BI platform that covers reporting needs across all functions of the company. It combines data from various silo systems used by the company to provide a single point of truth. The intuitive user interface allowed us to implement the self-serve reporting to a large number of users, who can access the data they need without IT support.
- Intuitive report and dashboard building tools allow users to customise their day-to-day interaction with the data.
- Some of the standard data warehouse (DW) design patterns are implemented and come out of the box.
- GoodData takes care of speed optimisation.
- Customer support is very responsive and accessible.
- It is not the best solution for the printable reports.
- Formatting of the output is limited and some classic visualisations are not available.
- It is a pure BI tool, there is nothing to support predictive analytics or forecasting.
- Data is not easily available, so we have to have an intermediate staging data warehouse. This literally doubles number of required ETL processes.
February 29, 2016
Using GoodData For Zendesk Advanced Insights
- Good mechanisms for relating data.
- Multiple different chart types.
- Scheduled dashboard email exports for other recipients.
- Dynamic/self-updating charts embed would be useful.
- Public access URL to dashboards for sharing.

GoodData - Democratize your Data
GoodData is used as the primary business intelligence platform in our company. All of our data pipelines feed into GoodData to provide a universal source of truth for all employees of our company and enable them to easily analyze our data themselves.
- Intuitive ETL
- Easy and powerful visualizations
- Powerful Query Language (MAQL)
- ETL client can be quirky at times
- Performance is heavily impacted by bigger datasets (100M rows total project size)
- Combining data based on different date timelines is challenging

BigData = GoodData
GoodData was implemented to house all of our data from the various silos we currently have, identify areas we can improve our data entry, and to assist with developing strategic goals.
- Great customer service
- Very agile framework that allows us to push the boundaries of what we want vs. need
- Very open to new suggestions from current users
- Need to think like a marketer when developing a platform so it's responsive and mobile friendly.
- It would be nice to have a closer relationship with understanding how all of the updates could impact me. Basically, when a new feature is rolled out, I watch the webinars, however, it's still at such a high level, I'm not sure how the new feature could be used for my circumstances. And since the team knows how the new features work and what my goals are, they have a much stronger understanding of how I could leverage the new features.
We have GoodData integrated to analyze our data within Salesforce. By using the powerful capabilities within the tool, we can create our own customized dashboard that shows a high level of our sales performance by individual, office, region and department. We can all see one single version of the truth and see progress towards goals. In addition, we can segment the data to see how we are competing against competitors, which industries we perform in best, and evaluate marketing efforts.
- Aggregation of information across multiple tables to quickly retrieve large data sets
- Customizable visuals to easily display and interpret metrics
- Great support team that quickly answers questions and provides guidance
- GoodData's architecture is very sound. We do need to work with them to make adjustments to the data model that we are not able to do ourselves. They are quick to respond but sometimes provide a delayed turnaround.
