Logi Info (Logi Analytics Platform) is a mixed bag, so go in with eyes open about what type of product it actually is

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our company uses Logi Info (Logi Analytics Platform) to provide dashboards, reports, embedded visualisations, and help customers make their own self-service reporting. We primarily use two products in the Logi Analytics suite, Logi Info and Logi Composer. Logi Info is a web-app builder with XML-based config files and a series of visualisation widgets. We embed these Logi Info items into our core application, primarily with iframes. Logi Composer is a more traditional BI style app where you make dashboards, reports, schedule reports, etc. - in this case, it is a separate portal/site for our customers to use.

Pros

Fast visualisation
Scheduled reporting
Putting user-specific custom variables into connection strings or queries to have individual reports tailor to many specific circumstances

Cons

Logi Info (Logi Analytics Platform) is NOT a BI tool, and there's a big misapprehension in many places that it is. Instead, it is a tool for making IIS-based web applications that happens to provide a series of BI-related widgets. It's not user-friendly, not intuitive, not awesome, and still needs a web developer to make CSS, JavaScript, and all kinds of things.
Logi Composer offers multiple 'accounts' to partition customer accounts and customer-created reports, BUT all the reports, visuals, data sources, and other items we make are account-bound too. So if we have a standard library of reports we have to either duplicate them for every account (and keep them updated), or we have to have all customers in one account and maintain permissions to hide their reports from each other.
Logi Analytics recently acquired another company / BI tool but don't package it as part of Logi Symphony - instead they want an extra fee if you're interested in checking it out.
While Logi Composer allows you to create custom visualisations, the tutorials online are out of date and still refer to ZoomData, the company Logi acquired which became Logi Composer.

Likelihood to Recommend

Logi Composer is the best of the product range that Logi Analytics offers; Logi Info is, in my mind, a terrible experience and should be discontinued. Logi Info is not a BI tool and many CEOs and product managers believe it is. Instead, it is a tool for web developers to create IIS apps with a library of BI-type components, and with everything else having to be hand-coded in JavaScript and CSS. Maybe this was cool back in the early 2000s when Logi Info came about, but today I'd recommend using Visual Studio, C#, .NET, and finding a NuGet package for your visualisations if you wanted to go the route of making your own web app. This said, where it is suited is if you have a burning desire to make a stand-alone IIS-based web application and you don't need or want to leverage any existing skills in .NET or PHP or other frameworks/languages. Instead, you want to use the Logi Info XML-based BI widgets and you're happy to make something quick without needing it to look really awesome.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The possibility of this application of low code and low-cost deployment truly allows us to construct an embedded kind of analytics tool. BI and analytics with Logi Info analytics is one of the greatest choices we've made. One of the finest aspects of this program is data preparation and advanced analytics.

Pros

Schedule and distribute large scale dynamic reporting.
Adaptive security framework.
Customisation with actionable insights.

Cons

Improvement needed in NLQ.
Improvement in natural language generation section.

Likelihood to Recommend

This was an excellent platform for predictive analytics since it assessed a certain pattern in previous data for larger payments in specific locations in order to detect fraud and waste for confidential customers. With prebuilt data models, the insights generated by this technology were simple to integrate and interpret.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Logi Info with our product and the specialty of the Logi Info is, it was embedded with our product and it was easy to manage the data from our application. We did not require any development effort to implement it with our product. It's very cool as well as cost effective. Also, it supports all the graphs and analytics offered by tableau. It's helping us to view our product insights like how many users interacted with our application, converted leads, revenue generated and expenses at one destination.

Pros

Easy to read colorful graphs and analytics dashboard
Easy to embed with any database
Operational Analytics
Support with multiple technologies

Cons

Tutorials should be improved as initially it looks complex to use.
Performance of the platform as sometimes it takes a lot of time to load the data.
Add feature to capture short term events and sessions analytics

Likelihood to Recommend

Logi Info is very efficient when we need to make the customized reports. It is very easy to drag and drop the data elements and generate report. We have a multiple data sources and Logi Info makes it easier to bring the data from different sources and show it on the dashboard.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We currently use Logi Analytics across multiple departments, as simple reports or as full scale web apps. These reports solve a number of formerly manual processes, as well as allowing for scalability.

Pros

Ease of development
Connection to virtually any data source
Embedding
HTML 5
Scalability
Flexibility toward user requirements

Cons

Analysis Grid could be more use- friendly
Parameter passing from report to process can be difficult
CSS enhancements can be counter intuitive

Likelihood to Recommend

It is flexible enough for any solution, and can retrieve data from any data source. Given its incredible flexibility, caution should be exercised to ensure that it is always the appropriate solution, especially in the case of enterprise application development.

Good Tool For Embedded Analytics

Rating: 7 out of 10

Incentivized

October 22, 2019

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It was used by the product teams. The tool easily could do analytics on top of the EZLynx portal and was vastly used to put metrics and baselines together.

Pros

Logi Analytics has a good embedded analytics platform that helps the user do analysis faster.
Logi provides a very good scalability option.
It does analytics on top of a web-based platform, which is good for quick insights into performance.

Cons

The online community is lacking. It is difficult to find solutions to problems while developing analysis.
For complex analytics, it doesn't have enough documentation.
Has deployment issues.

Likelihood to Recommend

From a development perspective, embedding Logi into our existing user interface was found to be quick and easy. Logi is highly customizable so it gives a seamless experience as we move from the original UI screens to the Logi based reporting and BI screens. Logi is transitioning to an API based approach which is being rolled out gradually. I like the direction the product is taking but would prefer to do our development once this transition is complete.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Logi to manage the time logging for our manufacturing processes. We have also created many dashboards and process improvements with this tool.

Pros

Logi is very agile- you can use it for anything.
Logi can be set up to be accessed from anywhere since it is web-based.
Logi gives you a platform so each project and report already has a head start.

Cons

I would love to have access to better training for my new users and developers.
An updated interface is probably due.
I haven’t talked to the company since we purchase it, would love to have them reach out to me.

Likelihood to Recommend

If you have a developer that needs a reporting platform, Logi works fine.

Logi Analytics driving our Business Intelligence suite to success.

Rating: 9 out of 10

Incentivized

January 31, 2019

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

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.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.

Likelihood to Recommend

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 Analytics: good, but going down because of poor support model

Rating: 2 out of 10

January 30, 2019

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I 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.

Pros

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

Cons

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.

Likelihood to Recommend

Logi is an excellent tool, but you need support to be able to use it. Based on their new support model, the product would not be usable by a new organization starting from scratch.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Logi within our SAAS product to provide analytics to our customers pertaining to the data they have collected in our system.

Pros

Very configurable for integrating as embedded analytics within an application.
Good training and support to get ramped as a user.
Convenient pricing model for a SAAS based business us.

Cons

More customer-facing self-service analysis for our customers
More native JS embedded analytics

Likelihood to Recommend

Logi was created as an embedded analytics tool within an application. It is less well suited as a standalone data analysis tool.

Logi Analytic Review

Rating: 10 out of 10

January 30, 2019

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

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

Pros

Support is top notch
Allows us to bring disparate data sources and systems together into one application. Our users only need to login into one system to obtain information about all 7 Distribution Centers
Logi Analytics makes all technical information available to everyone which makes it easy for everyone to research and learn about their product

Cons

I really haven't found any cons or showstoppers with Logi. I've been able to accomplish everything I've needed to do.

Likelihood to Recommend

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.
