GoodData

PROS & CONS

What are the best aspects of this product?

GoodData is not that complicated as what other people say. I like the platform because it is so easy to figure out how to start up your research project. I needed additional studies or analysis before making major decisions in my company that can affect revenue. As an entrepreneur, I should invest in tools that would help give me a clear insight into my future choices. I used the trial version for a few weeks to see what the platform can offer. I was happy with the accuracy of the data that they presented. Plus they gave me a detailed explanation of how they gathered all the information which I very much appreciated that is why I decided to get a higher subscription because GoodData is indeed capable of giving me intelligent business insights anytime.

We needed a platform that could be implemented quickly to provide reports for our employee recognition and survey application. We had limited resources, but the vendor’s implementation team helped us get started quickly and ensured our success.

The features I like the most are filtering capabilities, ease of printing, flexibility of permissions, and the ability to create attractive reports.
