Overall Satisfaction with Chartio

We use Chartio as our business dashboard for the leadership team. All critical aspects of the company performance are dashboarded by department for all leadership to coordinate on KPIs. Previously, we would have ad hoc reports from different line of business software applications that may or may not have been inclusive of all the metrics and only the metrics we cared about. Chartio gives us one place to go to measure the company.

Pros

  • Drag and drop interface
  • Comprehensive options for data sources
  • Excellent support response
  • Beautiful chart designs make At-A-Glance measurement possible

Cons

  • Minor interface issues on building and arranging dashboards. The Z-index of charts can re-sort without warning, making visual layering of independent charts difficult
  • Sisense,Tableau Desktop
Simple interface, simple dashboarding (very little ETL or Analysis requirement for our purposes) and ease of self-service and quick support response. The price was right for all of these things.
We continue to get more out of the product as they release new features. We also have a very happy user base here with Chartio as our dashboarding tool.
If you have a very specific data visualization in mind, ensure their chart types achieve what you're looking for. If you have external constituents and you don't want to share the entire dashboard, or you want to white label the charts/dashboards you'll have to wait for these features to develop more.
