"Decent Tool, Needs Simplification"
What do you like best about GoodData?

I like GoodData's responsive support team; they react promptly and usually solve my problems. For example, once they recreated my data model from a backup when I accidentally deleted an important table. I also appreciate the unified reports in GoodData, which are well organized into dashtabs. I like how every dashboard has the same structure, making it easy for users to navigate any GoodData dashboard after seeing one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoodData?

The most important one: every metric from the dataset has to be redefined as a metric in GoodData, meaning if I have clicks in my dataset, I cannot just use it right away, I have to define that clicks = select sum(clicks) and that adds complexity to the report creating process. My preferred solution would be being able to add metrics to report and only if I'm not happy with sum I could choose another aggregation. Learning GoodData was quite cumbersome for me.

Response from Natalia Nanistova of GoodData

Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear GoodData’s design and support have been valuable for your team. Regarding your suggestions, we’d like to clarify that the platform does support flexible dashboard layouts and a range of filter configurations, including per-tab management. Metric creation is highly customizable through MAQL, and predefined templates can also be leveraged depending on your setup. We’re happy to connect and walk through these options if that would be helpful. You can also join our community to stay updated on new features and enhancements.

"Empowered Our Data Team with Seamless Integration"
What do you like best about GoodData?

I like GoodData's flexibility. We can create metrics that reference other metrics, and it handles all the SQL for us. Creating reports is easy in the UI, but we can also make changes via code when needed, so we're not forced into one way of doing things. The metrics language MAQL, although it has a bit of a learning curve, is quite powerful once you get the hang of it. It allows us to build metrics upon metrics without writing SQL, as it is all handled by the data model. Switching to GoodData has allowed the Data team to create or update reports in hours or minutes instead of weeks or months, which was the case with our in-house platform. Plus, the initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoodData?

While the data model is generally good, I think it can be inflexible when you have a complicated data model. You can't add a custom field to a table without changing the entire table to a SQL definition, for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It's a reliable platform for business data projects"
What do you like best about GoodData?

The factor that I like best about GoodData is its flexibility once it has been established. I am using it on a daily basis to create dashboards that integrate with our CRM and SQL database and it fits well in our existing stack. The features count also allows me to make sales and ops views without changing tools throughout the day. It spares time in projects that require much implementation and integrating with other software is not imposed, but rather practical. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoodData?

The biggest negative aspect to me is that certain features are too complicated to use with smaller requests. It may be more work than I expected when I am in a hurry and require changing clothes, and this influences my working process. The implementation adjustments are at times demanding of additional effort, which slows down the process during the busy weeks. Their usage is frequent, and thus these minor problems contribute to the cumulative effect and may affect productivity in case of deadlines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable Analytics Platform with Powerful Dashboards"
What do you like best about GoodData?

What I like best about GoodData is how clean and customizable the dashboards are. It makes it really easy to present complex data in a way that’s simple for both technical and non-technical users to understand. The ability to connect with multiple data sources and create interactive reports is a big plus too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoodData?

I’d say the main downside is that the initial setup and learning curve can feel a bit overwhelming if you’re new to BI tools. Some advanced features also require technical knowledge, so non-technical users might need extra support at the beginning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
