Great Way to Get Additional Insights!
- I think we're too early in the process of integrating ThoughtSpot to really answer this question; although I can already see this having a very important, positive impact.
- ThoughtSpot has enabled us to marry cost data with member data to drill down into what is truly driving costs that can be lowered.
- ThoughtSpot has also enabled us to look at social determinants of health and help inform marketing decisions through collateral development.
- Time to market ROI is massive vs hiring the full-time dedicated team to build and maintain a frontend multi-tenant SaaS data viz product.
- It will be interesting to see over time how the advanced features play out in terms of usability and end value, such as Natural Search, which we are very excited about, and the machine learning tools.
In My Opinion: A Work in Progress
- In my opinion, it can be harmful to client trust due to downtime and bugs that never get fixed.
- It can be helpful to get quick insights.
- I believe the ROI impact is still unclear.
The New Generation BI Tool
- ThoughtSpot has reduced the overall cost of my clients for their visualization requirements.
- Since it charges on basis of storage, it pushes the developers to optimize the data as much as they can.
- Sometimes, the buggy nature of ThoughtSpot results in failure of pinboards.

ThoughtSpot
- I think ThoughtSpot helped save a lot of time of people (mostly in IT and Finance), so there's a tangible return of investment.
