Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Looker is a powerful self-service business intelligence tool that is focused on solving particular problems. The first time I noticed about Looker, was when this startup was been nominated for best data analytics startup. The reason why we love the service is it has been familiar to work with navigating through a web browser and it operates on any device at any time. Looker's analytics tool brings data and business teams together to develop the business to the next level.

Pros and Cons

Teamwork.
Git for version management and collaboration.
Powerful SQL modeling ability.

Should lower the price.
A bit hard to use the service if you are a newbie.
Should give more demonstrations.

Alternatives Considered

QlikView and Zoho Reports

I think working on Looker could be hard, but in performance, it can easily overtake Wave and Zoho Reports. The flexibility of the system and it being super fast makes Looker a standalone from other similar software.

Other Software Used

Domo, Evernote, Entrinsik Informer, Dropbox

Data Integration

Looker is easy to use if you are not new to the software. Other similar software vendors seemed to trap you into their useless words, but Looker only promises what they really offer you. With Looker, you get real-time access to the data you need to grow your company and it's really easy to merge data for collaboration.

Collaboration and Sharing

Tha data analytics sharing is really easy with teams. Very deep SQL modeling ability makes your companies secret data safe and secure. The team leader can control what he is sharing with others.

Likelihood to Recommend

Th reason why I did not rate it 9 points is because of the price but I rated it 8 because if its use. Users can discover details behind the picture because all dashboards and queries can be drilled into. Looker offers a free trial but if a small business team decided to buy the software, sometimes they can't afford that.
