Overall Satisfaction with Looker
We are using Looker throughout the whole company. We decided to use it after careful consideration and even considering building the tool internally but realized it was going to be too expensive and time-consuming. We use it for building all sorts of reports and tracking and to do data validation.
- Great place to combine all your data and make sources talk to each other.
- The dashboard building is very easy and gives you a chance to create and judge any data you need.
- With the reports, you can set up a save and then have them emailed to you automatically. It is a fantastic way of not having to recreate things all the time.
- It takes quite a bit of time to set up initially and the onboarding process is long.
- You need to have an internal team that is dedicated to just setting it up and getting the rest of the people on board.
- The reports take some time to build initially and it's not overly intuitive.
It was cheaper and less complicated. We were not ready to just into something as big as Sisense and quite frankly didn't need that level of product at the time. We also considered building our own tool but eventually realized that would be way more time and effort consuming so we went with Looker.
