Considered Both Products

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.

BI Discoverer is simpler and lighter. It offers a much lighter option for data access when compared to most other business intelligence tools. However, the features on BI Discoverer are limited and cannot solve deeper analytics requirements. For such use cases, it might be …

Oracle BID was a better alternative than AER for our department. Since we are an Oracle-heavy department, using Oracle software for all tasks, from data storage to reporting was the way to go. BID has proven to be a cheaper, more efficient alternative to AER. It has served its …

Microsoft Power BI and Tableau Desktop
Chose Oracle Discoverer (discontinued)
We selected this tool because it is easy to create an end-user layer which is the repository in the database. The data that is being used is from the datamart which we have built on a daily basis. This tool was selected because it is a web-based and available 24/7.
Chose Oracle Discoverer (discontinued)
They offer completely different functions. OBIEE is better for detailed data and Tableau is for visualization and summary of data.
Chose Oracle Discoverer (discontinued)
We have used several products over the years, including Sisense and Tableau. They both stack up well against Business Intelligence Discoverer, however, the costs for us are what split them apart. Feature-wise, there isn't much to separate the products.
Chose Oracle Discoverer (discontinued)
Discoverer is more of a departmental BI tool. OBIEE is much more expensive compared to Discoverer. OBIEE needs an ETL and Reporting team to develop reports. OBIEE involves complex modelling of RPD whereas it is much simpler with Discoverer. With Discoverer, it is as simple as …

Tibco Spotfire or SaaS BI are much more flexible and comprehensive, being compared with Business Intelligence Discoverer, they support many ways of scripting and has rich data visualization options, and furthermore, they can be linked with recent popular ML/DL frameworks.

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.

Discoverer is definitely well suited for a company that is working with a lot of data but does not have a large database knowledgeable team. It allows for basic database management while permitting users to access the data in a simple and efficient way. Reporting is easy to do and, again, does not require a lot of database know-how. If you are looking for more in-depth customization and multiple data sources from various vendors, though, you may want to look into a more robust platform.

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.

  • It would be useful if users could be allowed to write subqueries.
  • It would be helpful if there was a way for users to download the reports on their PC.
  • Most of the functionality is awesome and I would like to see more graphics in the reports.

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.

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

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.

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

Discoverer is more of a departmental BI tool. OBIEE is much more expensive compared to Discoverer. OBIEE needs an ETL and Reporting team to develop reports. OBIEE involves complex modelling of RPD whereas it is much simpler with Discoverer. With Discoverer, it is as simple as importing database tables, defining joins and running the queries. Discoverer stacks very well on top of ERP systems directly. Users can run reports on ERP tables using Discoverer. To perform similar jobs through OBIEE, one has to either use Noetix or another transactional model.

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.
