Data Discovery and Visualization
Comparison of Data Discovery and Visualization features of Product A and Product B
It is suitable for companies without a proper data warehouse. He does very well in sales analysis and KPI management. It builds mini data warehouses, is good at data fusion, and interfaces well with other systems. Also, the export function and filter can greatly help you to get only the information you want in the format you want.
When you need to create a centralised dashboard for multiple stakeholders that blends cross-channel reporting. As an SEO agency reporting for clients - Looker is a great solution. It's less appropriate depending on the intended users. For instance, in my experience Looker reports have been under-utilised because they're not accessed regularly, provide too much noise or often simple PDF reports are preferred
We are very haooy with Looker, it provides us with all the funciomalities we need for both the day to day oerformance tracking and longer periods reporting. It is easy to use for account managers, configurable and customizable for soecialists and what is most imoortant, our clinets generally really love it
The forecasts thrown allowed to formulate problems as solutions, it allows the distributed processing of the data as a whole, the real power of the Software is that it handles large amounts of data.
Looker is relatively easy to use, even as it is set up. The customers for the front-end only have issues with the initial setup for looker ml creations. Other "looks" are relatively easy to set up, depending on the ETL and the data which is coming into Looker on a regular basis.
Somehow resources heavy, both on server and client. I recommned at least 50Mbs data rate and high performance desktop comouter to be abke to run comolex tasks and configure larger amount of data. On the other hand, the client does not need to worry when viewing, the performance is usually ok
Security rules can be very frustrating, and limited online resources make it a difficult job. Download the report data only in Excel. Unable to download report formats such as colors, fonts, etc. This data analysis tool is a bit complex but complete for any industry that wants to follow its data.
Never had to work with support for issues. Any questions we had, they would respond promptly and clearly. The one-time setup was easy, by reading documentation. If the feature is not supported, they will add a feature request. In this case, LDAP support was requested over OKTA. They are looking into it.
You can have a good reading of the data, you undoubtedly have cost savings and eliminate unnecessary and repetitive processes, we have unstructured data that, when structured, are elements of information that have become a competitive advantage for our organization, it is undoubtedly a strategic ally for the organization in the decision-making process
In my opinion, Looker is no Power BI. It is good, but I think Power BI is amazing. That said, in my experience, Power BI is nowhere near as easy to setup and report on Google services as Looker is. We plan to continue using Power BI for c-suite and corporate reporting, especially for internal databases, but will gladly use Looker for our marketing information for AdWords, Analytics, Search Console, and YouTube.
Other than some people not liking the numbers, I don't see any negative impacts; we haven't experienced that.
The reports help us unravel the story of our users and how they are sifting through our pages.
Our clients enjoy seeing the numbers to understand better what stands out on their sites.
The reports have helped us see what campaigns are working and where we need to tweak things.
The reports have enabled us to have better conversations with stakeholders about how their web pages should be modified, edited, etc., to reflect the data.
