Overall Satisfaction with ThoughtSpot

ThoughtSpot is available across the organization. Some functions have taken a larger leap in self-service analytics with ThoughtSpot. It helps us with reducing cost and improving efficiency.
  • Analysis comes more naturally in ThoughtSpot than in other tools through NLP.
  • It ties in very well and effortlessly with our fiscal calendar and makes time series analysis by fiscal dates very efficient.
  • Auto ML (Spot IQ) is able to uncover insights that encourage users to dive into areas that they would have not known otherwise.
  • Visualization options and graphics colors can be improved.
  • Deeper analysis with "growth of" has a lot of untapped potential.
  • Administration processes (upgrades, patches, migrations, etc.) can be better.
  • Our analysis capability now has allowed us to gain a large percentage of cost savings
  • Large productivity boost for our data-savvy users--they have more time to take action on the insights that in the past was taken up by building visuals.
Our training sessions for ThoughtSpot are much shorter. Users can build productive insights after a one-hour training. Other tools may take four to six hours of training to achieve the same productivity.
The outputs have the right level of accuracy as long as your data foundation is right. The performance of the tool is exceptional.
Great UI for users to use existing answers or build new searches. The pinboard functionality can be enhanced with better interactivity.
  • Self-service analysis using NLP and time keywords (last month, year to date) for off-calendar fiscal periods is phenomenal.
  • Gives the business users a large
    productivity boost by reducing the build time for self-service analysis.
  • Spot IQ encourages us to look in places that
    were not on our radar in the past.
