BIME Analytics (discontinued) vs. Klipfolio Klips

Well suited if you need to create multiple reports and send them out easily to multiple clients. It is not well suited if you need a lot of data sources. It slows the product way down and makes reports take forever to load.

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.

• 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.

• It was SLOW!
• Some of the graphs can be confusing
• Not really set up for a single vertical company.

• 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.

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.

None at all; just be sure of what information you will need for working.

BIME was more accurate with sending out reports than RavenTools, and had a lot more customizable options. GDS has suited us well though, because it integrates with a lot of different platforms and allows us to deliver our reporting for no additional cost.

It was clear that Klipfolio had the edge in terms of the number of third-party connectors and templates available, allowing us to quickly be up and running with various API integrations and visually stunning designs in only an hour. It was a no-brainer for us, and we're glad we went with them instead of the other options.
