We use GoodData to provide business intelligence that's embedded within our platform. We use their end-to-end solution to connect our databases with their toool.
GoodData makes our data useful. We can quickly maneuver between the various data points, provide visualizations that summarize the data and extracts to get more granular.
  • Seamlessly incorporate a wide variety of tools in a way that doesn't clutter user experience
  • Provides tremendous knowledge and support on various use cases
  • Every offering and update is intentional - they're not a software company that makes changes on a whim
  • The organization of attributes/facts/metrics is lacking
  • Users share saved Insights and the management of those items. Its not intuitive or easy to find Insights unless they were the last ones you worked on
  • When viewing the data model, the interface isn't friendly to research. There should be a better way to view connections without endless scrolling
It's very useful for both simple and complicated data models. It supports my day-to-day needs on the larger data model, but I can also quickly connect miscellaneous reports to create visualizations for consistency.

We use GoodData to power up analytics for our customers (businesses) and how they are dealing with their own customers. We can leverage a lot of useful capabilities of GoodData, the most liked feature currently is the capabilities of the bricks. We can set up any new account with the perfect settings every time following our guidelines and the ramp-up is quite fast. We are using the platform version with an iframe displayed in our platform.
It allows us to have a BI tool for our customers an easier way than implementing it ourselves, and it is a clean solution.
  • Metrics
  • Dashboards
  • Bricks in general
  • Documentation (can still be improved)
  • Documentation
  • Initial setups
  • Limitations on the MAQL
I can only speak for ourselves, we think it is suited for developing a BI solution kinda fast for multiple customers. I do not think it would be the best solution if we had only a few dashboards/metrics to be done.

We use GoodData to extend the reporting capabilities of our app and allow our clients to build custom reports that deliver on their specific business needs. By embedding GoodData within our app, customers do not need to manage multiple log ins or leave the application to view critical reports and take action upon that data.
  • Low barrier to entry for users not familiar with BI tools
  • Documentation is generally helpful
  • UI is clean and simple
  • Product offerings are fragmented. Often some features are only found in one version of a product, but not another
  • Reports can be slow to load
  • Some advanced BI capabilities are not as robust as competition
GoodData is a good option as an embedded BI solution for a SAAS tool if that tool needs BI capabilities beyond what makes sense to build in house, but not as overbearing or complicated as implementing a heavier, traditional BI solution like Tableau or PowerBI.

GoodData is a proper visualization tool for data. One can build customized reports and metrics and slice data however one sees fit. The security design allows you to use the same report for multiple roles and ensure only the proper users see the proper information. The user interface is not complicated, but not necessarily very intuitive either. It would be nice to have some proper training videos.

Connecting my databases took a bit of trial and error, but that's also because I was learning the overall process in general
  • Simple setup
  • Easy database integrations
  • Fast deployment
  • Wish there were integrations into API data sources
  • Embedded dashboards without login
A great affordable solution for embedded analytics, where a beginner analyst can get their feet wet with a powerful tool

We are using it in two areas. One for inhouse analytics and another for enabling advance analytics for customers on higher plans. Inhouse analytics we are looking at state of onboarding for specific customers and overall within our system. This give us insight while tapping on the same infrastructure as our customers leading to cost saving and development time.
Provide insight into data for both internal use and customer needs with minimal development required beyond initial setup and integration. It also provide us with a way to prototype new report type easily before building them within the system.
  • Report building
  • Ease of onboarding
  • Scalable cost structure
  • Complexity of the cost structure
  • Changing of super admin to another person
  • Managing access
If you are familiar with other tools already and the budget allows, a tool that you or your team is familiar with is probably a better choice or a more popular options might provide you with more candidates with pre existing experience. In any case you need a BI tool that provide low startup cost and gradual growing cost like in a case of startup this is definitely the best options with minimal trade off.

We use GoodData on the introductory plan and have found it very beneficial so far. We made an intentional decision to centralise all of our cross-functional data into one archival database, and we use GoodData to display this data. This reduces our reliance on 3rd party analytics apps that may have multiple methodologies for measuring the same event (common if you are a product business) and it also enables us to see the customer journey end-to-end. In terms of usage, GoodData is really designed for detailed business analytics & data scientists. We do not have that expertise in house, so we rely on their no-code tools to get set up. While there was a small learning curve (the online slack community and help docs are helpful here) we are now in a place where anyone in the business can play with the data. We are also working with our devs to make the archival database more "readable" for non-technical employees, i.e. by using more self-explanatory naming conventions.
GoodData gives businesses an opportunity to expose selected parts of their data set to a limited number of employees. It then gives those employees the power to query this data in a no-code manner, which reduces (or eliminates) reliance on devs and data scientists. Data is loaded into models, which live inside workspaces. You can include / exclude what is needed from each model, and you can also pipe multiple datasets into a model. Similarly, you can include / exclude employees from certain workspaces. Employees have an option to export data to CSV or XSLX if there is no appropriate graph available. This gives you both security and flexibility.
  • Supportive community on Slack
  • No code data visualisation
  • Access control on both model and workspaces
  • No option to visualise a pin on a map
  • Custom metrics and variables can be tricky to get right
  • Hard to gauge where you are in terms of workspace data limits
  • Adding and removing DB fields from models is not as intuitive as it could be
  • Data model loading logs can be quite dense and hard to read, esp. when new
  • Setting up models to correctly reference between DB tables takes practise
  • No option to limit the amount of data a model loads once the table is included
I would recommend GoodData to businesses that have non-technical users whose decision-making would benefit from having regular access to cross-functional data. In addition, GoodData supports the creation of 3rd party dashboards. This can be helpful for businesses that need to externalise (some) of their data to a third-party, e.g. a client, on a regular basis.
