https://media.trustradius.com/product-logos/Wc/Ex/O7PUUV5WCWMX.PNGLogi Analytics: good, but going down because of poor support modelI use Logi to write applications or reports for many different areas of our company. Key examples include Payroll, Finance, Quality Assurance, Nursing, Compliance, Operations. I use it to create dashboards for our executives to get a good picture of how our company is performing on a daily basis.,Charts, graphs, data tables. A nice tool to organize, filter and analyze the tons of data that we have Graphic user interface makes programming applications pretty easy,Support. Logi used to provide EXCELLENT support. However, they've changed their support model and no longer provide excellent help. I used to get problems resolved within 15-30 minutes. Now, it has gone down to 48 hour response time just to answer a simple question. In-depth questions can go on for days or weeks. Based upon the change in support, and the fact that we pay for 'unlimited phone support' in our annual contract, we are moving away from using LOGI as a tool for the future. Learning CSS and Javascript would make you a better LOGI developer.,2,Our Chief Operations Officer has commented several times about how important LOGI has been in identifying opportunities for us to work on, and key areas to focus on to improve revenue generation We have used LOGI to automate work processes that used to be paper-based. We've filled in holes in work processes, and freed up work hours allowing people to focus on more important daily tasks.,Dashboards, standardized reports, automating work processes. Everything we've done with LOGI has been successful. We've automated our employee onboarding experience, employee creation, payroll processing, Quality Assurance program, etc. We've developed reports to track when certain goals are being met and publicized the results when our employees met those goals. We have achieved many goals using LOGI as the tool.,LOGI had been chosen as the tool of choice before I came on board. There was a long learning curve of at least 1 year before I got good, and at least 3 years before I really started to understand how to use the tool. I was not involved in the decision to bring LOGI in house.,Business Objects SRC,Microsoft Power BIEmbedding Analytics with Logi was a Game Changer.We use Logi within our SAAS product to provide analytics to our customers pertaining to the data they have collected in our system.,Very configurable for integrating as embedded analytics within an application.

The healthcare organizations we serve use these dashboards throughout their facilities to monitor everything from patient volumes and throughput times at the time of service to cash collections throughout the life cycle of the patient account. It gives the customers near instant access to numerous metrics at once by creating a dashboard with multiple relevant panels, rather than having to run a handful of separate reports and viewing them individually.,Very quick to create, deploy, and modify content - we were up and running with a usable product in a matter of months from the time we first got our hands on the Logi development tool. Loads of built in capabilities - the number of modifiable elements is nearly endless, and with some expertise in javascript and html it truly can do just about anything. Easy to embed and integrate - using custom fonts/css has made the application built entirely with Logi Analytics look like our own native product.,Slight disconnect between professional services and support - support often tells us something is not possible, professional services makes the impossible possible, but then support is unable to offer troubleshooting and advice due to the changes made. Allow for easier integration with advanced charts i.e. maps, D3, etc. More theme options - the Theme Editor is great but could be expanded to offer additional styling without needing as much css expertise.,9,Customer feedback has been overwhelming with regard to the intuitiveness of the application. End users are able to quickly gain insights in minutes about data that previously would have required hours or even days to generate and compare multiple reports.,Enhance our product offerings with a suitable visual reporting solution. The dashboard application we have created and offered to out customers has met that goal.,Ease of developing - our primary Logi Analytics developers are SQL experts with little other programming background. We needed a tool that did not need to have a framework built around it, but rather the ability to point it at a data source and immediate start creating content. We also required a platform that worked with our business model to license to our customers in an appropriate and scalable manner.,Sisense, Pentaho and BirstEasy to use dashboardsWe use Logi Analytics to produce the reporting dashboard portion of our construction ERP application.

Developers of other BI tools are always impressed when they see how quickly I can develop and deploy reports, a simple one takes 30 minutes from start to being embedded online. Any updated or new reports, templates, CSS, anything, is simply a matter of drag and drop using a cross-platform FTP application such as Filezilla. All this without redeploying the application.

It is primary being used by the software development team to design, prototype, and create dashboards and reports. This allows us to get to market quicker than our previous product. Logi also allow their product to be white labelled so our customers feel like it is our product.,Logi is able to quickly prototype visualizations for data set Logi is easy to install and get running. Logi provides great documentation for developing on our own.,Missing functionality with self service. You cannot group with aggregation. Out of the box the styling isn't the greatest. You'll need someone with CSS knowledge.,9,We have been able to launch our business intelligence suite driven by logi analytics. We are able to provide answer instead of just data which significantly reduced support calls asking for our team to provide those answers.,We went with Logi Analytics because we wanted a product that we could white label and develop reports/prototypes quickly that we could take to market. We have been successful is doing this as our launch of our BI product has been praised by our customers. We eliminated many of the pitfalls of our previous reporting engine and our customers love it.,White labeling to make it appear as our product. Ability to quickly design and develop reports. Self service ability. Ability to perform embedded analytics within our product.,Visual Studio IDE, Microsoft SQL ServerLogi Plays Nice with OthersWe utilize Logi Analytics to provide real-time reports to our users for everything from labor to inventory.,Logi Info is a great tool for creating visualizations quickly. This allows our team to provide information back to the requestor without investing a lot of time and effort The tool is also highly customizable so when the request is something more specific we can provide exactly what the user wants.,Logi can help the view into your data but you are going to need to know your data. The power of the tool comes at a complexity cost. Especially when later changes are made. Logi has made strides in this with tools like Data Services but making sure you update all data column references can be problematic. I'd like to see better tools in the IDE to manage orphaned settings/options.,10,We've seen requests for static reports go down while requests for analytics go up. This has shifted our view from what only what has happened to what will happen.,Our goal was to put information in the then hands of the decision makers in a more effeicent way than what was previously possible. Logi is helping us acheive that goal.,The tool needed to be robust in features and customizability. Logi easily covered both of those requirements. It also needed to be embeddable in many apps be it full desktop, tablet, or mobile. Logi works on anything. Lastly, it needed to be able to talk to many sources of data, not just one database or a propriety system. Logi's data model/layer allow for all of this.,,Visual Studio IDELogi Analytics ReviewWe utilize Logi Analytics to visualize, monitor, and track KPIs and streamline operations.,Adaptive to multiple data sources Ease of use for developers and end users Excellent support and customer service,Improved knowledge base and support search Training for new users,8,Have identified drivers of excessive wait times.

Exporting has been a huge complaint with all clients,Mainly to allow the clients to see their data in a more visually pleasing way.,Dashboard and easy developmentLogi Info Provides Flexible Reporting for Your Product!We currently have Logi Info tightly integrated into our product offering to provide reporting for administrative users. Logi Info allows our users to see information from site traffic to drill-down to the fine details of the users and companies which are using their sites. Logi Info was a great fit for us as it allowed embedding as an OEM application and it was not a cookie-cutter reporting software. You can build your application the way you see fit using their plug-ins to provide an experience for the users that are tailored to their needs. Since this included within our product, our product is highly configurable which means the reporting needed to address that and Logi was the best suited to this job.,Flexibility and easy standup. Users can choose to create their own Logi application or do a "quick standup" by using design straight out of the box. Due to varied customer requirements, Logi allows the developer to address all needs. Great design studio. The studio provided with Logi to create and maintain your Logi app gives a lot of detail and examples to guide you along the way. The tool even includes some additional tools for the layman to assist with deployment or wizards to help you create more complex type reports that otherwise would require more detailed technical knowledge to create. Of course, you can still do anything you want by hand if that is what you prefer! Documentation. Logi's developer portal provides plenty of documentation and examples to get users going. Need to create a custom template that builds from a table rather than being hard-coded? Search the documentation and you will find examples to piece together to form your solution!,Logi Studio is currently only available on Windows. I understand the backend is ASP.net but it would be nice to have more flexibility in this given their software can also be java-based (we run their software on a Linux server using java). Logi Info keeps all files as XML, which is fine and actually helps in terms of scripting report creation. The issue is that the majority of settings can only live on a server instead of a database. They do allow reports to now live in a database, but other aspects (such as users saving bookmarks and reports) cannot be and are all saved directly on the server.,6,Business Objects, Tableau Online and TIBCO Jaspersoft,JIRA Software, MySQL, Google Hangouts, Evernote, Trello, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon Aurora, Sequel Pro, Jenkins, Atlassian ConfluenceLogi - When you need a Logical Business Intelligence PlatformWe are currently preparing to roll out Logi to our hospital customer base. We are currently creating 25-50 initial panels that will give our customers an unprecedented look at the financial status of their facility. It will be provided almost instantly instead of the normal 2-4 hours of file generation, sort/filter etc. We expect that within 2 years it will also be fully integrated into our own in-house software.,Clear/Concise view of data. Easily intuitive, amazing drill down capability, fully user configurable panels and dashboards. Self-Service is such a powerful tool for facilities that want to create/design their own reports/dashboards, it's instantly recognized as being very powerful and agile. Logi software makes the designer realize that they should think outside the box and not stick with "it's how we have always done it limitation". It allows you to be very creative.,Online help is very helpful and very all encompassing, but it could be done more in almost a layman's perspective. More detail and explanation on the Request tokens. It has so many options and features that it can be overwhelming. I know, this isn't really a problem.,10,,10,10The 'Logi'cal choice for our use case. Feature rich and price conscious!Logi Info was purchased primarily to create an in-house, staff-facing tool for consolidating and reporting on data across our disparate systems. We have developers creating content in Logi Info across all of our departments including Marketing, Client Support, and Corporate Technology. The reports are chiefly tabular data which is aggregated from different sources and presented via an internal web server running Logi Info. We are beginning to use dashboarding features in order to present different users with content tailored to their business case/use case.,The ability to easily integrate data across multiple data platforms The product is easy to implement and learn The elemental design allows for recycling of concepts and features across various reports and output The security was easy to implement into our existing environment The number of options available for data manipulation and presentation, including Scheduling and Caching data, makes it easy to solve any problem or create content for any request Logi's Support Portal staff are absolutely top notch. They are responsive and knowledgeable. Due to the elemental design (see above), it is easy to communicate concepts to and from Logi Support via code samples and/or sample applications. The sample applications which we have received from Logi Support have formed some of the core concepts of our Logi Developer training!,It is not always intuitive to incorporate JavaScript into Logi Info. The tools are all available, but the process requires multiple resource in translating between Logi and JavaScript. The toolbox is too vast for Logi to provide a 'quick implementation' or 'quick start guide'. There are so many tools that Logi expects the client to determine which fit their use case. There are purchasable 'Professional Services' options for implementation, but without these, the toolset is almost too big.,10,ReportServer, EazyBI and Pentaho,9,6LogiAnalytics: Great option to add reporting/dashboard/mobile reporting for existing transactional system[It's] Used to create a commercial reporting add-on service to the marketplace.,Flexibility in access to various types of data and user interface.

We use it to display graphs, analysis grids, and offer ad-hoc reporting via Logi. Logi Info allows us to visually display complex data to the end user so they can make business decisions in a meaningful way. This has been much more successful than the long, stale reports that the insurance industry has relied upon since the 1960's.,the graphics are surprisingly fast. multiple data sources are supported, you can use stored procedures, straight SQL, views, etc. Logi is fast to bring out new features, and when they have a rare bug, they are quick to fix it.,there's occasionally weird issues like a Boolean value being set to true, but its false value is just blank, not false. this can make writing SQL more challenging. there's old generation graphics, and new. New is nice, but some of the old generation features didn't make it to the new graphics, such as tilting a pie graph on it's access.,10,IBM Cognos,SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform, SAP Crystal Reports,10,7Works as advertisedWe use Logi as an OEM as a common component amongst our portfolio of corporate, server-based solutions.

Employees can now see exactly where they stand on their goals at all times, prior to Logi they were having to look multiple places for reports and compiling that by themselves. Now it is done for them which allows them to focus on production rather than tracking. We also use it for presentation in some of our board reports.,Logi Info is very, very customizable Logi has done a great job of easily integrating multiple data sources Logi Info presents data that is easily consumable and has flexibility of charts in multiple different forms,The scheduling of reports is very difficult. Definitely something that shouldn't be as close to as hard as they make it. They have improved in this aspect, but their is still room for growth. Sometimes it is hard to add something after the initial wizard run. ie a summary row is a time consuming process if you add it later outside of the wizard.

We use Logi Analytics to produce the reporting dashboard portion of our construction ERP application. We have created hundreds of reports for users of our software. These are real-time reports that allow users to dig into detail on everything from payroll, invoicing and AR/AP to project management and field information.
  • Graphs
  • Exporting to Excel/PDF
  • Analytic Grids
  • Customizability
  • Complexity - there is a lot of functionality available within Logi. It can be confusing to know what to use and when to get the best performance.
  • Documentation - it is sometimes hard to find the detailed documentation we need for how to use some of the functionality.
Logi Analytics is particularly useful for fairly quickly creating dashboards where employees can see metrics and exception cases that need to be worked on. The analytic grids provide a lot of functionality for users who need to slice and dice the data in several different ways and lets them take control of this process instead of having to rely on a report writer.

We use it within the Facilities Department to track equipment, downtime, and the current status of Sorters and Conveyors.

  • I really haven't found any cons or showstoppers with Logi. I've been able to accomplish everything I've needed to do.
Good for bringing data from disparate data sources together. It has the flexibility to customize a report in any way imaginable. If a feature isn't provided by Logi you can develop your own solution and integrate it within Logi.

  • Connecting to different data sources all within the same report
  • Customer Support and response time
  • Account Management
  • User Conferences
  • Graphs
  • Data Exporting
  • Ability to incorporate java script easily
  • Field validation
  • Web Scraping
  • Gantt chart does not use date and time
  • Pulling all the data from a join table to a different database or source rather than only what needs to be joined... currently the app does the join only after the data is retrieved
  • More samples for using different elements outside the normal usage
Well suited for not only reports but rapid application development

Logi Analytics driving our Business Intelligence suite to success.

Logi Analytics is being used by our company to create our business intelligence product, which we then sell to our customers. It is primary being used by the software development team to design, prototype, and create dashboards and reports. This allows us to get to market quicker than our previous product. Logi also allow their product to be white labelled so our customers feel like it is our product.
  • Logi is able to quickly prototype visualizations for data set
  • Logi is easy to install and get running.
  • Logi provides great documentation for developing on our own.
  • Missing functionality with self service. You cannot group with aggregation.
  • Out of the box the styling isn't the greatest. You'll need someone with CSS knowledge.
Logi is well suited for companies that have someone they can dedicate to developing Logi. If you don't have this person then you will struggle with adoption and it will take a long time to develop visually appealing reports and dashboards. If you don't care about visually appealing reports and already have the data you need to report on then that isn't as much of a barrier.

Logi Plays Nice with Others

We utilize Logi Analytics to provide real-time reports to our users for everything from labor to inventory.
  • Logi Info is a great tool for creating visualizations quickly. This allows our team to provide information back to the requestor without investing a lot of time and effort
  • The tool is also highly customizable so when the request is something more specific we can provide exactly what the user wants.
  • Logi can help the view into your data but you are going to need to know your data.
  • The power of the tool comes at a complexity cost. Especially when later changes are made. Logi has made strides in this with tools like Data Services but making sure you update all data column references can be problematic. I'd like to see better tools in the IDE to manage orphaned settings/options.
Logi allows our executives to see our Cash Position in real time. Transactions made against our ERP are visible immediately.

We utilize Logi Analytics to visualize, monitor, and track KPIs and streamline operations.
  • Adaptive to multiple data sources
  • Ease of use for developers and end users
  • Excellent support and customer service
  • Improved knowledge base and support search
  • Training for new users
Quick queries and data aggregation. The query builder could be improved. Excellent for viewing data through a web browser, less user-friendly for schedules static reports.

Logi is used as a dashboard for all clients, as well as, charts, left nav reports and for internal use.
  • Charts are detailed and easy to create on the client side
  • Reports are interactive and easily embedded into our site
  • Also, a nice tool to use for internal purposes
  • Export to PDF takes too long
  • Export to excel is always an issue for clients
It's great for a customizable dashboard and drilling down to the actual data. Not very good at exporting reports.

Logi Info Provides Flexible Reporting for Your Product!

We currently have Logi Info tightly integrated into our product offering to provide reporting for administrative users. Logi Info allows our users to see information from site traffic to drill-down to the fine details of the users and companies which are using their sites. Logi Info was a great fit for us as it allowed embedding as an OEM application and it was not a cookie-cutter reporting software. You can build your application the way you see fit using their plug-ins to provide an experience for the users that are tailored to their needs. Since this included within our product, our product is highly configurable which means the reporting needed to address that and Logi was the best suited to this job.
  • Flexibility and easy standup. Users can choose to create their own Logi application or do a "quick standup" by using design straight out of the box. Due to varied customer requirements, Logi allows the developer to address all needs.
  • Great design studio. The studio provided with Logi to create and maintain your Logi app gives a lot of detail and examples to guide you along the way. The tool even includes some additional tools for the layman to assist with deployment or wizards to help you create more complex type reports that otherwise would require more detailed technical knowledge to create. Of course, you can still do anything you want by hand if that is what you prefer!
  • Documentation. Logi's developer portal provides plenty of documentation and examples to get users going. Need to create a custom template that builds from a table rather than being hard-coded? Search the documentation and you will find examples to piece together to form your solution!
  • Logi Studio is currently only available on Windows. I understand the backend is ASP.net but it would be nice to have more flexibility in this given their software can also be java-based (we run their software on a Linux server using java).
  • Logi Info keeps all files as XML, which is fine and actually helps in terms of scripting report creation. The issue is that the majority of settings can only live on a server instead of a database. They do allow reports to now live in a database, but other aspects (such as users saving bookmarks and reports) cannot be and are all saved directly on the server.
Logi is well suited for the purpose we used it, integrated into a product offering or for use by larger companies as an internal reporting tool. However, for a small internal IT group or a small site Logi may require too much ramp up time since it can require more technical know-how at times to implement some features. Most reporting tools require you to setup their "server" and once that is setup the user gets to work building reports. Logi requires you to build an app using their tools and then to deploy that app - requiring a more technical developer to complete this effort instead of just a business analyst (which may be the case for some groups). Due to this factor, it has been difficult to ramp up new developers on the system.

Logi - When you need a Logical Business Intelligence Platform

We are currently preparing to roll out Logi to our hospital customer base. We are currently creating 25-50 initial panels that will give our customers an unprecedented look at the financial status of their facility. It will be provided almost instantly instead of the normal 2-4 hours of file generation, sort/filter etc. We expect that within 2 years it will also be fully integrated into our own in-house software.
  • Clear/Concise view of data. Easily intuitive, amazing drill down capability, fully user configurable panels and dashboards.
  • Self-Service is such a powerful tool for facilities that want to create/design their own reports/dashboards, it's instantly recognized as being very powerful and agile.
  • Logi software makes the designer realize that they should think outside the box and not stick with "it's how we have always done it limitation". It allows you to be very creative.
  • Online help is very helpful and very all encompassing, but it could be done more in almost a layman's perspective.
  • More detail and explanation on the Request tokens.
  • It has so many options and features that it can be overwhelming. I know, this isn't really a problem.
Well Suited - It's very easy for a non-developer to make clear/easily understood important data displays
Great options for displaying data, UI provides great assistance helping you determine what chart, graph etc., to utilize for peak output.
Saves tons of developer hours by allowing non-developers to be able to create and design things.

Less Suited - It's not a big fan of displaying 1000 page PDFs but with adequate setup and drill downs, you can turn that huge PDF into 2 pages of what you actually need.

Logi Info was purchased primarily to create an in-house, staff-facing tool for consolidating and reporting on data across our disparate systems. We have developers creating content in Logi Info across all of our departments including Marketing, Client Support, and Corporate Technology. The reports are chiefly tabular data which is aggregated from different sources and presented via an internal web server running Logi Info. We are beginning to use dashboarding features in order to present different users with content tailored to their business case/use case.
  • The ability to easily integrate data across multiple data platforms
  • The product is easy to implement and learn
  • The elemental design allows for recycling of concepts and features across various reports and output
  • The security was easy to implement into our existing environment
  • The number of options available for data manipulation and presentation, including Scheduling and Caching data, makes it easy to solve any problem or create content for any request
  • Logi's Support Portal staff are absolutely top notch. They are responsive and knowledgeable. Due to the elemental design (see above), it is easy to communicate concepts to and from Logi Support via code samples and/or sample applications. The sample applications which we have received from Logi Support have formed some of the core concepts of our Logi Developer training!
  • It is not always intuitive to incorporate JavaScript into Logi Info. The tools are all available, but the process requires multiple resource in translating between Logi and JavaScript.
  • The toolbox is too vast for Logi to provide a 'quick implementation' or 'quick start guide'. There are so many tools that Logi expects the client to determine which fit their use case. There are purchasable 'Professional Services' options for implementation, but without these, the toolset is almost too big.
The pricing of Logi (per server core) is highly attractive for internal-facing use as we can control/predict how many visits we will get to our internal Logi webserver. The fact that the only license required is on the server means that all of our staff can use Logi Info-presented content without restrictions. The option of OEM licensing is also attractive and presents many future options, but will require much more licensing as the webserver will require more cores to handle the level of traffic demanded by OEM usage.

[It's] Used to create a commercial reporting add-on service to the marketplace.
  • Flexibility in access to various types of data and user interface.
  • Built-in troubleshooting tools to diagnose defects and speed development.
  • Application is delivered in "text-only" format, which makes it easier to deploy, install and manage.
  • Built-in "obfuscation" allows you to protect your intellectual property.
  • Always looking for more capabilities for "shared code", including snippets of SQL code.
Great as a way to add "reporting capability" to an existing transactional software product.

we are a reseller of Logi Info. We use it to display graphs, analysis grids, and offer ad-hoc reporting via Logi. Logi Info allows us to visually display complex data to the end user so they can make business decisions in a meaningful way. This has been much more successful than the long, stale reports that the insurance industry has relied upon since the 1960's.
  • the graphics are surprisingly fast.
  • multiple data sources are supported, you can use stored procedures, straight SQL, views, etc.
  • Logi is fast to bring out new features, and when they have a rare bug, they are quick to fix it.
  • there's occasionally weird issues like a Boolean value being set to true, but its false value is just blank, not false. this can make writing SQL more challenging.
  • there's old generation graphics, and new. New is nice, but some of the old generation features didn't make it to the new graphics, such as tilting a pie graph on it's access.
Logi is great for visuals, but the Information Analyzer doesn't replace a true report writer. You can export to Excel from it, but that's very slow. If you are looking for a WYSIWG kind of report, Logi doesn't offer any kind of solution, but if you are ok with grid based data, then Info Analyzer is ok.

We use Logi as an OEM as a common component amongst our portfolio of corporate, server-based solutions. It is the corporate standard reporting solution we have in 2 different business lines, soon to be a 3rd.
  • Simple tool set to create new reports
  • Quick uptime for new users - minimal training
  • Clean data modeling solution which produces nice reports
  • None I can think of, it works, and is easy
Not about scenarios, the main challenge might be that there are a lot of analytics solutions out there but for my efforts and due diligence performed, it works very well and is a good price : value ratio

We use Logi Info for our dashboarding. Employees can now see exactly where they stand on their goals at all times, prior to Logi they were having to look multiple places for reports and compiling that by themselves. Now it is done for them which allows them to focus on production rather than tracking. We also use it for presentation in some of our board reports.
  • Logi Info is very, very customizable
  • Logi has done a great job of easily integrating multiple data sources
  • Logi Info presents data that is easily consumable and has flexibility of charts in multiple different forms
  • The scheduling of reports is very difficult. Definitely something that shouldn't be as close to as hard as they make it.
  • They have improved in this aspect, but their is still room for growth. Sometimes it is hard to add something after the initial wizard run. ie a summary row is a time consuming process if you add it later outside of the wizard.
  • The flexibility and automation on drill downs could use a little work.
Logi is very good if you are looking to build custom reports, and allows you to make custom designs. I feel that Logi info is a very powerful tool, but it does take a decent amount of time and skill to get everything up and running the way it should. There is definitely some training needed if you are looking to get the most out of Logi.

Logi Analytics is being used as a dashboarding tool to provide both business and IT departments with quick and effective visualizations of their data sets. This includes both business and system KPIs.
  • Wide array of ways to gather data into the tool
  • Extremely flexible components that are also easy to use for beginners
  • Great support from the company on getting the tool to adhere to your needs
  • Able to run on either Windows or Linux systems
  • Detailed and highly available documentation within the tool on how to use every piece of functionality
  • Low amount of user forums
  • Resulting application fileset is heavy
The tool is best suited for dashboarding and website plugin designs. The tool is less proficient at web reporting. Knowledge of XML, javascript, and web development is beneficial in learning the tool.

  • Overly complex
for the technical population it's fine however we needed a product that our less technical users could easily self serve
