Looker vs. Panorama Necto

When you need to create a centralised dashboard for multiple stakeholders that blends cross-channel reporting. As an SEO agency reporting for clients - Looker is a great solution. It's less appropriate depending on the intended users. For instance, in my experience Looker reports have been under-utilised because they're not accessed regularly, provide too much noise or often simple PDF reports are preferred

How efficient is the tool for error handling capabilities? - In this case Panorama Necto has a unique feature of exceptional error handling capability and conditional error alerts that can be sent to stakeholders via email. An important question to ask while selecting any BI tool is, how good is the support? Panorama Necto has a group of highly knowledgeable and responsible support team members. The online video tutorials are very helpful and it's easy to learn this tool. This tool is very cost effective.

• I wish I could get more granular in the Google ad data, such as down to the campaign type, instead of having to see only all campaigns.
• The setup can be time-consuming if you're not using the product regularly.
• Editing the dashboard requires a few logins; I wish it was more seamless.

• Panorama Necto does not have support for Linux or commodity hardware.
• The big data technology support is very limited.

We are very haooy with Looker, it provides us with all the funciomalities we need for both the day to day oerformance tracking and longer periods reporting. It is easy to use for account managers, configurable and customizable for soecialists and what is most imoortant, our clinets generally really love it

Some features are very basic and sometimes you can't add your own SQL query for custom reports. For Macs and Blackberry users this application is not helpful. Non-languages are not supported in info-graphics. They need to improve their forecast analysis. Report sharing is limited among the portal users only

Looker is relatively easy to use, even as it is set up. The customers for the front-end only have issues with the initial setup for looker ml creations. Other "looks" are relatively easy to set up, depending on the ETL and the data which is coming into Looker on a regular basis.

Somehow resources heavy, both on server and client. I recommned at least 50Mbs data rate and high performance desktop comouter to be abke to run comolex tasks and configure larger amount of data. On the other hand, the client does not need to worry when viewing, the performance is usually ok

Never had to work with support for issues. Any questions we had, they would respond promptly and clearly. The one-time setup was easy, by reading documentation. If the feature is not supported, they will add a feature request. In this case, LDAP support was requested over OKTA. They are looking into it.

In my opinion, Looker is no Power BI. It is good, but I think Power BI is amazing. That said, in my experience, Power BI is nowhere near as easy to setup and report on Google services as Looker is. We plan to continue using Power BI for c-suite and corporate reporting, especially for internal databases, but will gladly use Looker for our marketing information for AdWords, Analytics, Search Console, and YouTube.

• The reports have helped us see what campaigns are working and where we need to tweak things.
