Mode Analytics is our main source of querying from our databases. We can pull data using PrestoSQL (Trino), visualize different metrics for trends, create quick dashboards for stakeholders, and even incorporate more sophisticated R or Python logic via their built-in notebook tool.
  • Multi-platform integration
  • Customer support
  • Clean UI for great UX
  • Scope of visualizations available
  • Advance dashboarding customizations
  • Drill-downs
Mode is great for speed and presentation. If you have a business idea, want to see a data prototype to validate your hunch, and need something to easily pull a few lines of SQL code and build a dashboard, Mode is a perfect solution. It's also a tool that allows for easy dashboard sharing. It does not have some of the nuances offered by Tableau but wins out in simplicity/intuitiveness. If you're looking for high-level modeling/forecasting, however, Mode comes up a bit short. Anything requiring a lot of processing power should be moved to a dedicated notebook/programming environment.

Mode [Analytics] has a shorter learning curve and is better for starter analysts who are not yet Python fluent. They also require very little setup for report viewers to consume data, making it a more optimal solution for team members on the ground.
Mode has dedicated agents who are online in a chatroom, ready to take on any questions and provide helpful feedback.

A few times, actually! Once I had some questions on how to implement a certain feature for my analysis. Mode's support team went above and beyond to listen to my question, find sample queries/reports from their onboarding guides that best reflect my use case, and provided additional stackoverflow etc. solutions to aid my understanding. Another time, I ran into a visualization issue where I needed a viz not in their template. The support agent was patient in explaining that what I wanted was a frequently requested feature, and the team would prioritize it as a product request. She also gave me tips on how to potentially create something similar using other Libraries beyond Mode. I was impressed by their dedication to customers and their level of knowledge about their product.
