Overall Satisfaction with Looker Studio

Looker Studio helps us to organize and visualize our data. We have some user profiles with their demographics, specific situation descriptions, behavior, etc. Looker works well to gather and make charts from this data. It is very useful for presentations, meetings or any research. The charts created in Looker can be downloaded in PDF, it is very convenient to use them.

Pros

  • Data visualisation
  • Data extraction
  • Data sharing

Cons

  • Requires learning curve
  • Data must be structured to download
  • Loading time is long
  • Speed up report creation
  • Helps during the meetings
  • Speed up the business desicions
It is not ideal and requires time and dedication to understand how to work with it. Also, it has a lot of limitations around data it can accept. But in most cases, this tool is sufficient for everyday tasks of product and marketing departments. I wouldn't say that the interface is very user-friendly, but for people who regularly work with analytical tools, it must be ok.
I liked Tableau, but it is a bit pricey, also there is no option to share the report online unless you add the team members. If your research is not really big and difficult, using Looker Studio is more practical and easy. I think it is very important to estimate how big and difficult your data is, and then decide on the tool.

Yes

If you already have some structured data and want to visualize it and use it in Miro for an additional illustration or insert it into a presentation - Looker Studio will be the right tool. If your data is unstructured, and if you have a lot of qualitative research, Looker wouldn't be helping.
