    Intellicus makes complex data analysis easy through the use
    of Powerful Business Intelligence tools.
    Their dashboard capabilities provide a flexible and efficient way to
    deliver information and analytic tools to users without the need for highly
    technical skills.



    Non-technical users are not exposed to simplified ways to
    build data query logic. This is a tricky
    requirement to satisfy though, because of the level of complexity that is
    inherent within data mining and analysis.

    Looker Studio is well-suited for those wanting to analyze web/site data and performance quickly. It is simple enough to learn/use for quick report-building or drilling into data. Looker Studio is easier to use/understand than the GA4 console and thus has a better UI/UX. It is an efficient tool for fast, simple data needs—especially for team members with limited analytical capabilities and knowledge.

    Cons
    Intellicus Technologies
    • Building complex query objects and cubes could be more user-friendly.
    • User interface loads of complex OLAP of large data cubes could always use improved performance :)

    • Few functionalities are very exclusive only for data studio.
    • It's time taking to load data and at the same time only single Data source can be connected.
    • When editing the reports you have to switch between Edit and View mode to see how does the change looks like.

    It is the simplest and least expensive way for us to automate our reporting at this time. I like the ability to customize literally everything about each report, and the ability to send out reports automatically in emails. The only issue we have been having recently is a technical glitch in the automatic email report. Sadly, there is almost no support for this tool from Google, but is also free, so that is important to take into consideration

    It is not ideal and requires time and dedication to understand how to work with it. Also, it has a lot of limitations around data it can accept. But in most cases, this tool is sufficient for everyday tasks of product and marketing departments. I wouldn't say that the interface is very user-friendly, but for people who regularly work with analytical tools, it must be ok.

    I give it a lower support rating because it seems like our Dev team hasn't gotten the support they need to set up our database to connect. Seems like we hit a roadblock and the project got put on pause for dev. That sucks for me because it is harder to get the dev team to focus on it if they don't get the help they need to set it up.

    The free version of Looker Studio is still better than the leading enterprise-embedded BI tools, despite its weaknesses. The leading embedded BI platforms have terrible visualizations that can be spotted a mile away. They are also primarily locked to a grid, making it very hard to fully customize. The price point is also a major deterrent, since users end up paying for lots of features they might never use. Looker Studio has weaknesses on the blending and modeling side, but we've been able to get by via connection to GBQ and transformation done in dbt.

    Return on Investment
    Intellicus Technologies
    • Intellicus provides the necessary Business Intelligence capability that is required by our customers.
    • The business value is almost impossible to quantify because it is a critical part of nearly every customer account we have!

    • Free, so the only investment is time
    • Because it doesn't have native support of non-Google sources, it can cost more money than Tableau
    • The time spent formatting the templates or building connectors can have a negative impact on ROI
    • As a agency, charging for the reporting service is profitable after the first month or two after building the dashboard.
