Overall Satisfaction with GoodData

Our organization is using GoodData to provide business insight into e-commerce performance. We check the dashboards on a daily basis which gives us almost a real-time overview of the revenue, best-selling products, and warehouse status. We connected data directly from the Magento database which allows us to directly analyze all the data without zero code or a need from the IT departments. It helps us to track performance, adjust ad campaigns and monitor our purchase ROAS.
It gives an in-depth analytical view of our raw data directly from the database. Before using GoodData, we had to implement our inhouse analytical solutions which took time and were slow to react to the business needs. With GoodData we are able to deliver fine-grained dashboards in days not months.

Pros

  • Simple way of connecting any database
  • An easy way how to model data
  • An appealing look of the dashboards

Cons

  • I would appreciate a more examples how to build a "standard" dashboards.
  • I would appreciate a more control over the data loading, for example to load some tables based on the queries instead of full loads (similar to the views on a database level)
  • I would appreciate to somehow adjust the data being analyzed with SQL-like queries as in the BigQuery for example.
  • We are able to perfectly monitor our revenue and expenses from several sources and act based on that
GoodData is pretty good when it's in the hand of the engineer, but it could be challenging in a hands of non-engineering people.
I was able to create a simple dashboard with 5-10 charts and metrics within 48 hours of creating an account.
I don't have an experience with that yet
We integrated GoodData with Magento database and other in-house e-commerce solutions.

Yes

Did implementation of GoodData go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy GoodData again?

GoodData is solving in a very good way "read-only" or immutable dashboards. If I would need to have more controls e.g a custom filtering on the dashboard sometimes it's really hard to achieve what you need.
