Overall Satisfaction with GoodData

We use GoodData for a business reporting dashboards which allows us to keep up to date on the performance of the business across many key metrics. We are also able to dive deep into this performance to understand how these metrics are affected by various attributes. These are available anywhere anytime to the whole business helping develop a data driven culture.
The main problem GoodData addresses is having a single point for understanding business performance without the need to go into lots of different system dashboards.

Pros

  • Scheduled data loads
  • Simple layout
  • Self service analytics
  • Simple to use and powerful data modelling

Cons

  • The new dashboard layouts are very restrictive compared to the old pixel perfect layouts
  • SSO integration on platform could be easier
  • Positive impact to data driven culture
  • Greater awareness among business of performance
GoodData is quite useable for power users but it takes a lot of work to get it to that point, it is not just an out of the box dashboard, which is not really possible. You need to, as with all tools, take the time to build out your dashboard projects properly so that less frequent users will be able to understand how to use the various tabs and filters to get what they are after.
The hosted GoodData platform is simple to set up and provides a clean dashboarding experience that can be shared with users easily. Other products can often try to fill the self-service and dashboard roles in one interface which can be a bit full on.

Do you think GoodData delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with GoodData's feature set?

Yes

Did GoodData live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of GoodData go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy GoodData again?

Yes

For automated daily dashboards it is great and simple to set up allowing it to be shared widely in a business and be up to date as per your requirements. For more ad hoc analysis involving custom querying of underlying tables it has limited in platform capability through the analyze functionality.
