Considered Both Products
DataHero
Chose DataHero
Both DataHero and Excel4apps are great business intelligence tools, but the latter don't offer room for growth due to unavailability of large and global enterprises BI tools.
Reveal
Chose Reveal
No much difference compared to major competitors regarding the cost. However, I find Reveal better equipped with lots of features. It also offers better data collaboration features which is a plus.
Chose Reveal
While understanding and using Reveal takes time to learn, it offers leading industry features. It is also a little bit expensive. However, the benefits are worth the trouble.
Chose Reveal
One reason why I would still consider Reveal despite being expensive is because it is more versatile. There are tons of features and there is so much a business can achieve with Reveal.
Chose Reveal
Reveal is more detailed and offers multiple features. However, it does not come cheap but I still consider it the best in BI.
Chose Reveal
Reveal is more affordable compared to most competitors. Most importantly, there are no compromises on capabilities and therefore a better choice for business.
Chose Reveal
I tested these other platforms, but for what we are needing, they didn't have all the features that Reveal does. Reveal allows for more personalization and modifications. The other platforms also didn't have the plethora of templates that Reveal does.
Chose Reveal
Lacks ability to generate analytics as complex as Tableau and not as easy to embed and interface with other software and databases as Looker. But a very good option for those not needing the complexities found in other products.
Chose Reveal
Reveal promised a less steep learning curve and delivers on that promise, but that is partly because it does not provide the same depth of functionality which is available from Power BI. With Power BI, there is deeper drilling available and a wider range of tasks which can be …
Chose Reveal
The only alternative I have ever used have been internally built portals that are obviously flexible but don't have the portability and cross-platform support that Reveal has. We used ReportPlus, but it didn't have an Android alternative for my other handheld. In looking for …
Chose Reveal
The infrastructure and licensing costs are much smaller when compared to others.
Chose Reveal
Tableau was extremely difficult for our team to try and use--a lot of us aren't data experts. It was more expensive too.
Chose Reveal
Reveal's integrated .NET component approach is interesting. Many solutions have an iFrame only option, which limits your applications ability to interact with dashboards.
Chose Reveal
Reveal, compared to its competitors, has a much lower cost if we consider an audience of 100-130 end users. Not only is the initial/annual cost the advantage of Reveal, but also the simplicity of configuration, use and production of the reports. The other competitors have wider …

As a company responsible for people money we have to deal with following challenges every day: Clients who want to track the status of their transfers. Licensing agencies who need to ensure professional standards are met. Internal team managers who need to track client and staff progress to ensure company progression and success. Reveal does a good job as self-service tool enabling the accountable parties to have full access to important insights 24/7. The prebuilt dashboard themes save time and investment as we don’t need to hire a dedicated data analyst. The interactive dashboards give full transparency. The ability to easily create, analyze and report keeps clients, partners and stuff on the same page.

  • Ease of Use - Reveal is super intuitive when it comes to creating dashboards. You don't need to be a data expert, which is key for me.
  • Sharing - The ability to share across our teams, locations, and with clients is great. We create teams for our different clients and share dashboards there that also are connected to our company dashboards.
  • Support and Roadmap - Reveal support has been great. They care about the needs of their customers. They have released 3 updates in the last few months, and they are adding a lot of value.

Cons
  • Collecting data from on-premise tools like Concur Invoice was overwhelming, but we were able to partner with external service providers.

  • There are a limited number of templates, but this is something they say they are working on.
  • Cost is reasonable for individual personal use, but prohibitive to small companies looking to embed their services in their own App.
  • Responses to emails for support can be delayed, but what else is new?

As a developer of the project, I feel comfortable with this tool for its peculiarities: acceptable costs, simple configuration, creation and maintenance of simple reports, fairly complete account management, also, not least, I appreciate the work done by their technical support always timely intervention and, above all, resolutive.
Furthermore, as far as end users are concerned, I found a good appreciation of the proposed reports

Usability

There's a little setup initially, but it's very simple. I would only ask for a few more options in font size. My iOS app screenshots perfectly, while the Android version is hard to get all the data to show in the field. I typically show total sales and percentage to LY as my primary team reports...as well as seeing how I'm doing versus the other Area Managers.

Reliability and Availability

This assessment is due to the fact that I have not yet found Reveal not available for use. Apart from some problems of development crash, then fixed by the product assistance service, I have not found any particular problems or loss of time caused by the instrument.

Performance

The pages load rather quickly even in the presence of several elevations in the same dashboard that insist on different data sources and with visualizations that insist on different types of graph. I can only be satisfied with these performances.

None in particular, however, would be welcome if improvements were made in the personalization of the prospects and in the connection between them (perhaps being able to transfer the selections present in one prospect to another recalled by the first).

This evaluation is the result of the fact that I have not had the opportunity to deepen the Reveal interface with other tools and / or other software, so the evaluation that I am giving follows what I have been able to read regarding the characteristics of the product online.
