User Testimonials
	Klipfolio Klips	Oracle Discoverer (discontinued)
Likelihood to Recommend	It's a piece of software that's capable of almost anything. Dynamic variables can be changed in real-time via the interface's UI/UX and UI/UX customizations. As a result, it can always keep its database up-to-date and obtain the most current information from a variety of sources. The Klip customer service team is extremely friendly and helpful. Every time a problem with the Klip setup arises, they're there to help. As a result of their activities, they try to work with the group's experience. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	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. Incentivized Joseph R. Sweeney Senior Analyst Read full review
Pros	Dashboard design. Super simple and easy to set up, move and size components, and display. Klip creation. This is report/chart creation. Klipfolio straddles the line well between ease-of-use and robust capability for data crunching and visualization. Data sync. I have had very few data sync issues. The sync just works and it is very light-weight on API calls. Multiple data source formats. You can make data sources in JSON, Summarized View, and Detailed View. Modeled data sources. You can create modeled versions of any data source, which allows you to lock in data formats, add columns (including formula columns), and more. Team permissions. I have been able to set team permission sets and use that to display the given dashboards around the office. With this, I can control who has access to which data. Chart options. There is a great selection of chart types to choose from. Great support. Their support staff has always been very responsive—almost always immediate. I have always been able to resolve my issues with them. Incentivized Parker O'Very Manager of Marketing Operations Read full review	Business Intelligence Discoverer helps with our Reporting team. We are able to run reports needed immediately using this tool. Business Intelligence Discoverer helps with getting analysis of monthly and yearly medical data from across the state. Business Intelligence Discoverer helps with web publishing and sending information to the trading partners. Incentivized Jatel Desai Programmer Analyst Read full review
Cons	Onboarding. The process of setting up a new client for a dashboard can be a little tedious. File size upload and third-party integrations. I have been limited to the size of the .csv file we were uploading but we were able to find a workaround. Lisa Wester Email Marketing Strategist, Chief Engagement Officer & Founder Read full review	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.

Usability	My initial impressions of the software have been extremely positive. There are YouTube tutorials that explain how to make klips. The intuitive design of the UI It appears that everything in this software has been thoroughly tested to create all the visualizations that can be imagined as well as the user input controls that allow users to have exactly the data they want to be displayed in seconds, considering the various functions and formulas available in the Excel integrations and the extensive list of other services that can be integrated.

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	Klipfolio not only delivers great-looking dashboards, but it makes our agency look awesome to our clients! Klipfolio is one of the few platforms that we have implemented where the minimal investment has consistently provided maximum results in the return on our investment. Not only had Klipfolio proven to be a fiscally smart - money-saving - move, but has also proven to be a great time saver as well.
