Overall Satisfaction with Grow

We use Grow to aggregate report information from a couple of different resources (VersionOne and Zoho). VersionOne has some reports built into the product, but it didn't allow me to see the information I really wanted to look into. I used the Custom API integration from Grow and have it pulling the data I care about and presented in a simple way, allowing me to see what is needed.

The charts are used across the organization to get a pulse on productivity and if there are any areas which may need additional attention or guidance.
  • Creating a new metric is simple and easy to learn.
  • Grow does a good job of abstracting the user away from needing to know SQL to see what they want.
  • Grow also allows me to dive in deep by writing my own SQL to manipulate the data when I need to.
  • Some more advanced options would be very interesting. The API I use allows me to pull information based on an 'asof' modifier. Thus setting the date for which I care about the data. It would be super awesome if I could make that variable and not a fixed date. So that I could pull information 'asof' 2 weeks ago, 1 week ago, and today and compare.
Grow is the first product of this type which I have utilized at any significant level.
If you are in an organization which is data-driven, pays attention to KPIs and is seeking to stay on top of the information you care about - but don't want the overhead of building a report daily, weekly, or monthly - then Grow might be the right solution for you. Build it once and then pay attention to the report on the frequency which matters.
