Overall Satisfaction with ThoughtSpot
ThoughtSpot is currently being used by my department and not the whole organization. I work for an insurance client and am responsible for data analytics and visualization. Graphs and other visualizations provide a clearer understanding of what the data says and this is where ThoughtSpot comes in. My clients are trying to move completely to ThoughtSpot for any visualization requirements.
- ThoughtSpot is great at using artificial intelligence to give some automated insights from data.
- ThoughtSpot allows you to source data from multiple data stores like Redshift, Excel, etc.
- Querying on ThoughtSpot is super easy.
- It provides a wide variety of visualization.
- Since ThoughtSpot is not widely used, there are very few tutorials.
- ThoughtSpot needs to include a lot more customization in their visualizations.
- Sometimes, ThoughtSpot is buggy and clients need to contact their support to resolve issues.
- ThoughtSpot has reduced the overall cost of my clients for their visualization requirements.
- Since it charges on basis of storage, it pushes the developers to optimize the data as much as they can.
- Sometimes, the buggy nature of ThoughtSpot results in failure of pinboards.
In my opinion, a fledgling can pick up ThoughtSpot in about 3 to 4 weeks. This can be optimized by putting in more hours.
Since querying on ThoughtSpot is super easy, it does not take a lot of time for users to respond to ad-hoc tasks.
We use Redshift as a data warehouse and ThoughtSpot helps us directly connect it to Redshift clusters and get data to the frontend quickly.
