In my organization we use ThoughtSpot to create management dashboards and reports. They include financial- and non financial KPI's.
This product improved the quality of our reports and dashboards. It's flexible and easy to use.
The main problem that we had with other software was the fact that we have multiple sources/databases. ThoughtSpot is able to link them al together but is still easy to use. Great product and easy to use.
  • Combine multiple sources / databases
  • Click and play / drag and drop -> ease to use
  • Cloud based so always available
  • Possible to work at the same time with multiple users
  • Quick and easy learning
  • More training video's for beginners
  • Example or standard reports to show what's possible
[ThoughtSpot is] easy to use. Lot's of possible thing you can do.
No problems combining multiple sources and/or databases.
Great performance.
Nice way to create dashboard and reports. Can handle both financial- and non financial KPI's.
This makes it possible to great the best reports for management and own use.
Cloud based product so always available.

  • Saved lots of money bacause we now have 1 product for all reports.
  • Saves time because easy to use.
  • You need to spend some time on training and building things.
Depending on the user but I would say it takes a few weeks/month to get up to speed.
It's easy to use and very user friendly.
With some help you are able to adjust and do things yourself in about an hour.
The lay-out is great and buttons make sense.
ThoughtSpot is able to combine multiple sources/databases. Next to that you are able to make the report or lay-out the way you want.
That makes it flexible and easy the create the overview you want. This way it's easy to answer the data questions as they promise. Great product.
There are a few things that can be improved.
For now you still need some support to get started. Would be nice to see a product that's so easy to use, that you can get started without any help. Maybe also include a tutorial to get people started even quicker.
It has improved it and enabled the possibility to combine sources/databases.
ThoughtSpot has more possibilities, is easier to use and can combine much more info to get the report you want.
Also, because you can replace other software, it's cheaper.
Marketing, sales, finance, strategy, etc.
Mainly our I&I department
  • Visualization of data
  • combining data from different sources
  • Easy dashboarding
  • Tracking targets and performance with dashboards
  • Easier access to dashboards

room for improvement on the user experience. you wouldnt need support if this was better.
i can't remember exceptional but the support is good in general
  • searching
  • the main overview
  • navigation
  • analyzing
  • developing own dashboard without training
  • getting the logic behind the system is a bit hard at the beginning
you can add more databases and keep adding systems etc.
also, you can scale users, dashboards etc
it's available unless there is a server or system update etc.
sometimes the timing of this is bad (for example during a month end close)
happy with the performance, no bugs that are giving me problems.

  • n.a.
no.
  • File import/export
