Considered Both Products	Databox Dustin Brackett CEO Chose Databox In comparison, Databox has been a more robust solution and one that works really well with HubSpot (our preferred marketing automation platform). It's a bit pricier than Cyfe was (not sure now), but the features are worth it. Incentivized Helpful? Michael Glover Content Marketer Chose Databox Much cheaper and seems to do at least as good of a job while having a similar integration stack. I also appreciate the efforts Databox go to on their blog and podcast to help educate people on all things data and metrics. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Databox Databox automatically integrates with tons of different data sources without you needing to arrange the backend information on how everything should connect. Tableau, Power BI, and Sisense require a lot of manual setup unless you have all of your fields perfectly matched up … Incentivized Helpful? Heather Robinette, MBA Marketing Manger Chose Databox While HubSpot is where we store our information and utilize the systems, the reporting wasn't deep enough and it didn't include the entire website since it is hosted elsewhere. So I started looking at options, and Databox came as a recommendation so I checked it out and haven't … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Databox Databox and Grow are similar tools, and truthfully, Grow is a more powerful platform with more sophisticated reporting, integrations, and a larger feature set. However, Grow is significantly more expensive and Databox has the features you need most for less of an investment. I … Incentivized Helpful? Stephanie Tran Sales System Architect Chose Databox HubSpot's reporting tool simply isn't enough. It also doesn't help that the reporting add-on for HubSpot is an additional $200/month, and it only reports on HubSpot stuff. That's why we selected Databox--to report on other platforms like FB ads, Google Analytics, etc. However, … Incentivized Helpful? Eric Pratt Managing Partner Chose Databox Databox is easier to set up and is much less costly. Incentivized Helpful? Daniel Berry SEO Strategy Specialist Chose Databox Databox is unique in its ability to report from multiple data sources. Google Analytics is the standard when it comes to web metrics, but it's just one of the tools that integrates with Databox. Tableau is fantastic for data visualizations and reporting, but it's much more … Incentivized Helpful?	Epicor Grow Haleigh Doherty Demand Gen Ops Manager Chose Epicor Grow Grow is above and beyond using google sheets for data analysis. There really is no comparison to the ability to access, analyze and report on data in Grow versus in Google sheets. The metrics are also great, the graphs are easily created and understandable. They are also easily … Incentivized Helpful? JP Johnny Pelter Client Relations Manager Chose Epicor Grow Grow.com is a great product because it is usable and has tons of functionality and customization, but it is definitely very expensive compared to other options out there. Incentivized Helpful? GA Greg Alder Account Executive Chose Epicor Grow Grow.com is a software that we picked because of the great positive reviews and because of the great customer service. Often times we need assistance within the software and the customer service reps are able to help. Incentivized Helpful? VP Victor Pret Sales Manager Chose Epicor Grow Grow.com is one of the best options because of the amount of functionality and customization is much better than other platforms. Incentivized Helpful? YI Yosef Ing Director of Social Media Chose Epicor Grow We like Grow.com and chose this platform because the customer support team was great and super helpful. We make this a priority so that when we run into issues, someone can assist. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Epicor Grow Grow.com is one of the best software out there simply because of how intuitive it is to use. It does not take much effort to get a team up and running using the software, but there are also a lot of other functions that can be expanded on as well. Incentivized Helpful? Thomas (TC) Riley Director, Analytics Chose Epicor Grow Grow doesn't have as many advanced analytics features and other capabilities as some other 'dashboard' platforms on the market. Simply, if you want a tool for internal use only that has high-level analytics capabilities (regressions, completely custom visualizations, modeling), … Incentivized Helpful? MH Mike Hilverda Director of Customer Success Chose Epicor Grow Tableau and Klipfolio are both great options and we considered others but ultimately Grow had the best combination of pricing, report customization, and support that we were looking for. At one point, when we were only using Grow with our Sales Team, we thought about moving … Incentivized Helpful? Ian Nate Digital Marketing Operations Manager Chose Epicor Grow I've used all three products listed, and Salesforce really lacks even with their own reports. We started using Grow almost exclusively for displaying and visualizing Salesforce data. At a previous company, we used Geckoboard, which I would consider more of a direct competitor. … Incentivized Helpful? Thomas Soerenes Marketing Communication Specialist Chose Epicor Grow Google Analytics only shows one side of the story. With Grow.com we are able to look at data from many angles. Incentivized Helpful? Kyle Garrett Marketing and Sales Operations Chose Epicor Grow Grow.com has the easiest to use UI/UX out of the other business intelligence tools that I have used. It is a little more intuitive and takes less knowledge of SQL to really get what you want. The pre-built metrics really help to get up and going right out of the box, where … Incentivized Helpful? Grant Rust President / CEO Chose Epicor Grow Grow was a much better fit for our organization: Simple deployment Feature rich Incentivized Helpful? Dave Moll Digital Marketing Manager Chose Epicor Grow We needed a tool that had more connections than Don King. And that tool is Grow. Incentivized Helpful? Gregory Phillips Chief Technology Officer Chose Epicor Grow I initially selected Grow because it was integrated with our CRM (ProsperWorks) and allowed me to use SQL to query that data. I've stuck with it because it supports many of the other data sources we are interested in pulling data from and gives us a lot of flexibility in doing … Incentivized Helpful? Matthew Racz Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer \| Crowdfunding Advisor Chose Epicor Grow I think Grow stacks up really well, and to be honest, we have not done a deep dive into competitors. Incentivized Helpful? Nathan McClellan Vice President International Operations Chose Epicor Grow When I looked at other solutions I found that the setup costs would have been tens of thousands of dollars. With Grow I can do it myself. Incentivized Helpful? Jolijt Tamanaha CMO & CFO Chose Epicor Grow Geckoboard and hacking it together with Google Sheets. Neither let's you do as much and neither is as pretty. Incentivized Helpful? Rod Austin Director of Marketing Chose Epicor Grow Blew the doors off in terms of simplicity and support when getting started. Incentivized Helpful? Nate Shaw COO Chose Epicor Grow Grow is the first product of this type which I have utilized at any significant level. Incentivized Helpful? Michael T. Collard Portfolio Accountant Chose Epicor Grow We've used several Google Docs as our own dashboarding platform. Integration was ok but not nearly as clean as grow. Implementation was slightly easier if you were familiar with Excel though. Incentivized Helpful? Logan Leaming Controller Chose Epicor Grow We chose Grow because of how economical it was in comparison. It was a great decision because we got what we needed and didn't have to pay even close to what we would have with other companies. Incentivized Helpful? Jeffery Arnold President Chose Epicor Grow We looked at quite a few different providers (I honestly cannot recall the names) but ended up utilizing Grow based upon initial conversations. Incentivized Helpful? Srini Kanchinatham NetSuite Solution Architect Chose Epicor Grow Before Grow we chose iCharts and developed all charts in iCharts. But it is very difficult to develop charts in iCharts and also we cannot display those charts on TV monitors continuously. That is when we looked into Grow and we have been using Grow since then.

User Testimonials
	Databox	Epicor Grow
Likelihood to Recommend	Databox is fantastic for companies or agencies that regularly report on a variety of metrics from multiple data sources. It's ideal for any company that uses a variety of different tools (as long as Databox integrates with them). It's particularly good for HubSpot agencies and companies that use HubSpot. It's maybe not necessary for companies that only use one tool or don't do reporting. Incentivized Daniel Berry SEO Strategy Specialist Read full review	Grow.com is well suited if you have a lot of data or client data to manage. If you do not have tons of data, there are other options out there that are a bit more simple and easy to use and a better price. Incentivized JP Johnny Pelter Client Relations Manager Read full review
Pros	Create dashboards from a variety of data sources. Set & track goals based on the data and metrics provided. Send alerts and scorecard updates to Slack and email automatically. Incentivized Michael Glover Content Marketer Read full review	I love the fact that you have a team of developers who can help me build metrics or fix metrics that I do not create properly. I had to learn SQL in order to really build the metrics that mattered, which was a lot of fun, but resulted in many broken metrics. The vendor's team was great in responding to me requests for help! Really, really appreciate the fact that Grow has SQL formulas to reference when building metrics. Again, as a novice, this accelerated my ability to learn and not have to leave your site and resources and stay within the Grow web properties. Great account managers who check in regularly and are willing to help out whenever needed. Incentivized Matthew Racz Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer \| Crowdfunding Advisor Read full review
Cons	Some types of data can only be reported on for 1-2 months back. Unless I'm misunderstanding the function of the software this seems really weird. I can't figure out how to report on Activities more than 2 months ago Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	There are basic labeling issues with some of the graph types. Wish there was more customizability here, especially on complex graphs. Could help more with analysis of data and trends, but that's going into full-fledged BI territory. The functionality of being able to snapshot data isn't quite there. Incentivized Ian Nate Digital Marketing Operations Manager Read full review
Usability	Databox is an intuitive, well-designed platform that can be used by non-technical marketers. It is easy to learn, and while set up takes time, usability is high and the team has enjoyed creating custom dashboards and clients have also given us great feedback regarding its usability and value. While other BI tools are much more complex to navigate, Databox is a breeze. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	This tool is definitely a little bit difficult to be able to figure out at first, but after some time of learning you can definitely pick it up. I do wish there were more resources online that would be able to help speed up the learning process Incentivized GA Greg Alder Account Executive Read full review
Support Rating	I have really enjoyed using Databox and have seen the value of it in many ways. They also continue to improve the functions of it and grow their integrations and templates. I look forward to continuing to use Databox in the future, potentially even finding ways to incorporate it into other departments to help them with reporting as well. Incentivized Heather Robinette, MBA Marketing Manger Read full review	The support team is very helpful and in every situation we have needed help in, they have been able to assist. So I have had a good experience with them Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	While HubSpot is where we store our information and utilize the systems, the reporting wasn't deep enough and it didn't include the entire website since it is hosted elsewhere. So I started looking at options, and Databox came as a recommendation so I checked it out and haven't turned back. I didn't evaluate any other products because Databox met our need and we were able to get started right away. Incentivized Heather Robinette, MBA Marketing Manger Read full review	Grow doesn't have as many advanced analytics features and other capabilities as some other 'dashboard' platforms on the market. Simply, if you want a tool for internal use only that has high-level analytics capabilities (regressions, completely custom visualizations, modeling), Grow probably isn't the platform for you. To put it another way, if you have a team of data engineers and scientists doing complex analysis, Grow might not make the most sense. However, if you understand the value of data/visualization/dashboards, but lack some of those skillsets in your company, Grow might be the perfect fit. Not only is it incredibly scalable and reasonably priced compared to other market solutions, but their transform capabilities really stand out. They have many native data transformations that mimic SQL coding of a dataset, without requiring any knowledge of SQL. They've converted these transformations to easy-to-use tools in the platform, which are perfect for the less-technical user. Incentivized Thomas (TC) Riley Director, Analytics Read full review
Return on Investment	It has helped us to show our value to clients Easily digestible dashboards make it easy to understand what you're looking at Incentivized Dustin Brackett CEO Read full review	Made it so much easier and faster to access data across tools Lessened the time exporting and uploading data to excel/sheets for analysis Made data and metrics more easily accessible to others in our orgs Incentivized Haleigh Doherty Demand Gen Ops Manager Read full review
