What is GoodData?

GoodData is a cloud-based data and analytics platform, bringing AI-fueled data-driven decision-making to organisations across the globe. With a platform that leverages the potential of automation and AI, GoodData empowers its customers to make data analytics available to end users via real-time, self-service data insights right at the point of work.

  • Empower users to autonomously explore data and create AI-infused interactive dashboards and charts via a no-code UI. AI-powered features like NLQ to drive faster insights and faster decisions.

  • Enable their analytics engineers and BI teams to collaborate with code. GoodData’s “Analytics-as-Code” philosophy empowers analytics builders to boost efficiency with code-based automation, developer tools, and blueprints — letting them fully leverage software engineering workflows and ultimately create analytics environments even faster.
  • Ensure trust in their data, from source to dashboard. GoodData’s semantic layer and suite of security and governance features enable comprehensive testing, validation, and monitoring for consistent, accurate, and secure data, regardless of where it is consumed.
  • Dynamically scale their analytics to accommodate increases in data volume, end users, and business partners.

  • For larger extracts, we have to build other options internally at cost. We've explored options with GoodData on expanding number of fields on extracts or expanding overall size of data, and we can't even pay for the functionality. It's not available.
  • Using GoodData Platform, we use have GoodData host the scripts and backups. Its nice to have all cost in once place
  • Because GoodData hosts all the tools, we have found some items are out of our control (connector updates for example). When something goes wrong, we're at the mercy of GoodData.

  • the platform has allowed us to deliver complex, multi-faceted dashboards to end users fairly quickly.
  • Adding to an existing model, can be more time consuming than preferred but overall has allowed us to provide a significant number of reports across a wide variety of subject matter, user roles, and use cases
  • The speed to get up and running has been great, much of our initial reporting from initial deployment 8 years ago is still stable and running smoothly with small maintenance requirements.
  • The platform has been able to handle our transition from on prem databases to cloud sourced and allowed loading the data to the same elements from both to satisfy the business needs.
