Overall Satisfaction with GoodData

We're using GoodData to embed dashboards and data visualizations in our product.
Our users were asking for insights into their business based on the data being generated in our product.

Pros

  • Excellent onboarding and implementation experience with very helpful consultants.
  • Very good for embedding and white-labelling.
  • Very responsive support via email and slack.
  • Developer-focus with good technical documentation.

Cons

  • Data modelling is difficult and requires technical expertise.
  • The product is very geared towards technical use cases and can be difficult for non-technical business users.
  • Allows us to deliver sophisticated reporting and visualization in our product without expending much custom development time/resources.
  • Provides us with a very impactful and competitive feature area for the product offering.
I find it quite intuitive, but I have heard some less technical users having some difficulty. As mentioned, the data modeling piece is quite technical and requires expertise.
It took us about 4-6 months to define, build, and then fully embed the dashboards into our product.
We don't use this a lot, as our major use case is embedding.
GoodData is much more focused on our use case of embedding into an existing web product, and their licensing was far more suitable for this.

Yes

Did implementation of GoodData go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy GoodData again?

Yes

It's excellent for embedding in existing web applications, and licensing is also very well-aligned with this. However, implementing ad hoc internal reporting has been difficult at times due to the technical skills required to set up the data models.
