Considered Both Products
Domo
Chose Domo
Because Domo has high mobile and responsive features, we prefer Domo over the others. Because other products still lack features in terms of features, it slows us down. We hope that Domo continues to innovate continuously to become even better. Thank you Domo for providing many …
Chose Domo
Much better than the previous system Tag which was Corvu which ended up being just a shell for Rocket Software. It also brings modern capabilities such as roles and security to the systems that we have, It is also a lot easier than the old one in which we needed to hire a …
Chose Domo
Microsoft Excel has the ability to create spreadsheets and charts however it requires very complicated formulas and macros.
Domo is a little more user friendly as far learning how to use the program without needing to understand complex formulations. Excel is also very touchy, …
Chose Domo
Domo is on the higher side when it comes to price against the competition but it warrants it. It has all the features and capabilities you will need to execute an exceptional BI program across your organization. I'm not sure I'd recommend this if this is your first BI tool just …
Chose Domo
Domo customer service is what sets it apart. This is something that we focus on because setup time for tools and downtime often causes issues. Having the support team being so responsive and able to help is a huge bonus.
Chose Domo
We have used grow.com and zoho analytics but Domo is one of the best softwares overall for these purposes.
Chose Domo
Domo is a complete end-to-end platform that provides warehouse, ETL, and visualization features as against these other platforms which are mostly visualization platforms. Though other platforms have started providing data cleaning features, they do not provide connectivity to …
Chose Domo
Domo is one of the best software out there simply because of the functionality and capability that it has over other software. The only downside with this is that it is a bit more expensive compared to other solutions out there, but this is because of the added functionality.
Chose Domo
Domo has a slightly steeper learning curve than tableau, but once you learn it, it is MUCH better than tableau.

You will need someone on the team dedicated to running the platform
Chose Domo
I wasn't personally involved with the selection of Domo as compared to other solutions. I am aware that the close proximity of the company to us gave them opportunities to be more personal in their presentation. Tableau was probably our second choice. But the customer service …
Chose Domo
I have used Tableau, Hyperion, Micro-strategy, Crystal, and SSRS, nothing was as easy to use as Domo. It is also not one-off. I can create a new report based off of an existing dataset in a few minutes, and so can anyone else.
Chose Domo
Domo is by far the industry leader. Other tools/platforms have unique strengths, but from an overall perspective, Domo is the most versatile and does an exceptional job in all areas. This is critical when it comes to "scale". A BI project may start with a siloed scope, but as …
Chose Domo
Used PowerBI, and have seen Tableau, Sisense, and Qlik used.
Chose Domo
I have never used Tableau, but I've spoken with colleagues who have used it. Tableau is good and probably a better experience for the report builder, but I know my executive team is satisfied with it and it does make it easy for them see how the company is performing as a whole.
Chose Domo
We switched from Tableau to Domo because we believe Domo is a better tool for self-service business intelligence. After switching to Domo, we saw much stronger adoption from business users compared to Tableau.
Chose Domo
We looked into Tableau before Domo but decided Domo was more suitable for our business.
Chose Domo
Domo blows Foresee out of the water. In the future, I would like to see the two integrated further so I do not need to skip between apps.
Chose Domo
It's been a few years since we evaluated BI options - Domo was the winner in perceived ease of use and cost, it's held true to that.
Mode
Chose Mode
  • Tableau is a huge pain to edit or create dashboards, by comparison. It can make better looking visualizations, but in practice, letting users drill down and change dimensions slows the end user experience so much that it's often not worth it.
  • Looker is amazing for data modeling, …
Chose Mode
We used both Qlik and Mode at our organization. The mode was used a quick analysis SQL tool while Qlik was our enterprise BI solution.
Chose Mode
I've used other BI tools such as Spotfire and Mode is by far the better solution. It is far more stable, less susceptible to errors/needs to reload/re-format reports, and overall more user-friendly. Spotfire might have some deeper functionality for absolute power users, but for …
Chose Mode
Mode Analytics is better for us than most -- because of its white-label feature, its security-first posture, and the fact that you can go directly to SQL.
Chose Mode
In my opinion Mode Analytics has an edge on much of the competition due to the intuitive and powerful custom dashboard creation interface. I can create dashboards for stakeholders that are self explanatory and easy to make conclusions from. In other respects, it's very much at …
Chose Mode
Mode [Analytics] has a shorter learning curve and is better for starter analysts who are not yet Python fluent. They also require very little setup for report viewers to consume data, making it a more optimal solution for team members on the ground.
Chose Mode
Mode is the best for the advanced user with advanced use cases. Even creating a simple report will require an SQL query. No drag-and-drop interface for querying data. But it is best for the advanced user already familiar with Python or R and SQL. The other products are more …

Likelihood to Recommend
Domo is great when you want to see lots of values historically or see data you can see natively in a platform. As I mentioned earlier, Domo is the only way our Marketing and Sales teams can see when their emails were opened and compare the send time - this is an example of data I can't see natively.

After launching a new contact pathway in a help experience, Mode Analytics can help provide insight into the sentiments from users as well as the engagement with any written content. Numeric outputs are easier to manage, whereas more nuanced/emotional feedback is sometimes hard to quantify (though not impossible if you get creative).

Pros
  • Provides data acquisition, transformation and visualization all administered from one cloud-based tool. No switching between tools or cobbling different products together.
  • Provides GUI and MySQL interfaces for data manipulation for both entry-level and advanced users.
  • Huge amount of data connectors out of the box, plus you can easily create your own custom connectors.

  • Easy to use (click a button and get right to SQL).
  • Security First (everything is locked down by default).
  • The White Label feature is super easy to skin -- our embedded reports look just like our app!

Cons
  • When changing cards from one dataset to another any beast modes are not carried over, it would often make life easier if there was an easier way to copy beast mode calculations from one dataset to another.
  • Domo documentation, university and Dojo are extremely helpful when we run into problems. However, when support beyond that is needed their help desk seems to have a hefty backlog - the amount of time to resolve tickets is frustrating sometimes.

  • Date ranges aren't always the most intuitive to set, strangely
  • Faster refresh rates would be ideal
  • Would love more dynamic mobile device integration (alerts, etc)

Domo is a great up-and-coming product. There are many fantastic features that are extremely compelling to our end users, which makes Domo a great fit for our organization. As with many BI tools, there are items on the wish list that could make implementation, administration and usage easier, but I believe these will be addressed over time as the product matures and evolves. The overall concept and approach of this solution has definitely raised the bar in this area of expertise and I would like to see things advance in giving the enterprise tools that will make decision making easier and more robust in the future.

Usability
A business management platform has to be flexible to provide solutions for customers from any business environment, but that flexibility has to be delivered without requiring complex business process re-engineering and massive data conversion efforts. Domo’s web-based architecture and wealth of connectivity options allow rapid setup for any business. If your marketing company is wrestling with channel return on investment or your educational organization is drowning in data, Domo has the tools and capability to use your data and turn it into something useful for you

For the advanced user already familiar with Python. It is just the same tool, already managed and connected to the data.

Support Rating
Pretty responsive. It took a while to get a response in selecting data points for our particular cards. Might have taken about a month? I am not sure if this was something on our end or Domo's end. But haven't had any other issues yet that required additional support from Domo.

Mode has dedicated agents who are online in a chatroom, ready to take on any questions and provide helpful feedback.

Implementation Rating
It is a true web-based application so implementation is much easier and smoother compared to other non-web based BI solutions. Also, they offered consulting services during the implementation process, which was helpful. Also, they provided lots of on-demand training courses and videos, which I liked.

Domo is by far the industry leader. Other tools/platforms have unique strengths, but from an overall perspective, Domo is the most versatile and does an exceptional job in all areas. This is critical when it comes to "scale". A BI project may start with a siloed scope, but as the project bares fruit, others begin to ask how they can participate/leverage the tool/platform for their own projects - because of this, Domo's versatility is incredibly important

  • Tableau is a huge pain to edit or create dashboards, by comparison. It can make better looking visualizations, but in practice, letting users drill down and change dimensions slows the end user experience so much that it's often not worth it.
  • Looker is amazing for data modeling, but you have to get your whole business all in on it to take advantage. Viz capabilities are similar.
  • Databricks has a lot of functionality overlap, but the visualizations are terrible. Databricks' great strength is that you can use notebooks to do anything with code.

Return on Investment
  • Domo has allowed us to see much more clearly what is working for students on our programs, and what is not. This enables us to consolidate success and further develop where there are areas of concern.
  • The verbatim comments in Domo makes the reports especially attractive to staff, since they are able to engage directly with students' personal opinions and not just with rating scales.

  • It has allowed us to monitor ongoing financial transactions written to our SQL data tables in real-time and that helps us to monitor user transaction activities in real-time
  • Using Mode we have been able to also track users who undertake fraudulent financial transactions; preventing financial losses to our users
  • Mode's collaborative abilities have been very helpful in sharing transaction monitoring workload across our compliance and cybersecurity team
