Looker brings the data and business teams together by making it easy for everyone to explore and understand the data that drives business.
Better Reports is targeted at small and medium businesses that need to analyze the data locked in their apps (Shopify, Stripe, QuickBooks Online, etc...).
I love the ability to visualize all of the data in one space. Dashboard creation is easy and so useful.
Can get a bit confusing and confining with more complex queries/analysis. Machine written sql can be annoying.
We use ours with Redshift and Aurora and they take most advantage of both systems. Their super awesome customer support - always available chat who are really good at what they are doing.
To be fair, if you have a terrible underlying data warehouse, then all Looker will do is expose that.
It’s a good option if you want to do dashboards connected to google sheets. Also a good alternative to PowerBi.
Unfortunately, their documentation could use some improving as often I find myself confused and unsure what to do with their docs.
Looker has been a great and useful tool for out business. Where we've found challenges is in the specific data dictionary and set-up, which internally was not well prepared prior to implementation.
I dislike how long it can take certain reports in Looker to load.
Love it! if you have questions, you have a great customer service to help support this feature (shout out to [SENSITIVE CONTENT]!).
It is fairly limited in functionality; so expect to do some data manipulation.
But I really want to highlight how fantastic the team have been with each and every email I have sent and the many questions I have asked. Every response is speedy and helpful.
The only negative I can think of is that if you're not already familiar with PivotTables, Tableau, and other similar tools, it might not be as intuitive to use.
The customer service is amazing for customizing my reports - i need super custom reports and they always help so fast! especially [sensitive content hidden] keeps helping alot.
Missing features, but they were added later so its also a pro.
It was fantastic working with their customized reports team. They were very thorough and pleasant to work with.
As I use the platform, I'll start creating more reports.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
