## About Avenue
Avenue is a data observability platform that helps companies monitor and analyze their data in real-time. Our platform allows users to create monitors that track specific events or conditions in their data warehouse using SQL or other database types (like Airtable or Google Sheets). Monitors generate signals, which are like tickets or individual units of work, representing a single row of data from our customers&#39; databases. These signals can be used to trigger notifications, create incidents for tracking progress and state, and can be sent to various subscriber destinations such as Slack, SMS, Email, etc. Avenue integrates with popular tools like Slack, Zendesk, and Customer.io to help users receive alerts and execute workflows seamlessly. With Avenue, operations teams can easily monitor important business events and take proactive actions based on the insights gained from the monitored data.




## Avenue Reviews
  ### 1. The Linear/Jira for Ops Teams

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Harris S. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

Avenue’s Ops Queue tool has saved us hours of digging and gives our exec team peace of mind know that tasks get closed out (according to the prescribed playbook). We’d thought about building a tool like this internally but decided against because it would require too much engineering time — with Avenue we could set up the alerts we needed around operations and account management in minutes using simple sql queries. Day 1 we were able to connect our Snowflake, Airtable, and Intercom to Avenue. Each day our ops team knows exactly what they need to work on at the exact time it happens and they have an accompanying playbook to figure out how to resolve.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Would like to get recommendations on how we can improve operations — I imagine Avenue collects so much data on how ops teams work, it would be nice to get curated recs.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Before Avenue we used an internal chat system within our platform to manage workflows and communications. This would get chaotic and hard to monitor. We also used slack for some communications which was problematic because it meant endless threads and no place to see all “live” issues. We also had some basic internal task triggers set up but they were limited. And, we relied on tribal knowledge to catch issues. With Avenue’s alerting + play booking we get an easy way to monitor/resolve ops issues and we no longer rely on tribal knowledge. Avenue also gives us a source of truth for our ops queue but lets operators stay in the tools they already know due to integrations // comment syncing // workflows.

  ### 2. Heads of Ops: don’t build (a hacky internal ticketing system), buy Avenue

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anthony E. | Cofounder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

As a hands-on operator at a consumer company, Avenue has simplified and legitimized our QA system - it’s truly been a game-changer. Before Avenue I built these internal systems which ended up being janky. We considered hiring an engineer or using part of our existing engineering team to build out an internal ops alerting + smart-queueing system but Avenue was wayyy cheaper (and faster to implement). It’s so easy to set up monitors (which basically means what’s the issue you want to monitor for, where do you find it, and who needs to solve it, and what can be automated in the process). The data enrichment (which lets us build an alert based off 2 data sources like Snowflake + Zendesk, is helpful for streamlining our communication and allowing us to automate vendor communications effortlessly.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Would be nice to have more customizable reporting in the tool. We currently use the data warehouse export and signal view to get a read on performance but I’d like to see progress over time IN the app.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue has significantly improved our alerting system between Snowflake and Slack. This has been crucial in enabling our non-technical team to receive notifications and resolve issues without unnecessary escalations. Before Avenue, we invested considerable time building internal tools for QA systems. Now we have a gold standard QA system with Avenue’s automated engine, which saves ops teams headaches and engineering teams hours.

  ### 3. Never miss an SLA again

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jared H. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 23, 2024

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

Avenue has been great for alerting. We hooked it up to Zendesk and Slack, and now, whenever a customer has an issue, Avenue automatically kicks a Zendesk ticket. It even fills in all the details about the customer, so our support team knows what’s up right away and can communicate with the rest of the team in Slack (since only the CX team uses Zendesk)

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Would be helpful to have templates for our industry so we know what customers like us should be monitoring for.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Before Avenue, keeping up with customer service SLAs was a bit of a scramble. Now, Avenue’s like our watchdog. It provides a single source of truth for SLA’s at risk of breach across various tools and lets the teammate who owns that SLA know when they need to take action and escalate if they don’t. We’ve seen a big improvement in meeting our service commitments since adopting Avenue. This automation and centralization of incident management have allowed us to focus more on strategic initiatives, rather than being bogged down by acute ops issues. We also have a view of how efficient and accurate each CX teammate is.

  ### 4. helpdesk/jira for ops team

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Maayan A. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

Avenue’s broad data source support and SQL query capabilities make it an easy choice for monitoring critical business events. The plug-and-play integrations with Slack and Zendesk enable real-time alerts and collaboration within our existing workflows. Our team can stay in the tools they already live in because of cross-platform syncing. Also like that we can manage escalations / reminders in Slack to ensure team closes the loop (in tools like Zendesk/Intercom)

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Would be helpful to have more out-of-the-box templates so our team can build out more alerting in Avenue.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue has streamlined our data observability by allowing us to monitor diverse data sources simultaneously. The incident management workflows have been instrumental in resolving issues swiftly — issues either get assigned/escalated to the proper person or auto-resolved.

  ### 5. Real-Time Monitoring and Automation with Avenue

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Swapnil B. | Senior Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 04, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

The versatility of Avenue is impressive. It’s not just an alerting tool, but a comprehensive platform for data observability and incident management. The platform’s ability to integrate with various data sources like Postgres, Snowflake, BigQuery, and others is great. I also appreciate the ease of setting up monitors using SQL queries or other database types. The integration with Slack for real-time alerts is another highlight. I also really appreciate the support we get from the Avenue team — whenever I need help I reach out in Slack and get a quick reply. The team has also reached out proactively to help me configure monitors more efficiently. They were also very open to coming up with a pricing plan that worked for both parties.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

There was initially a lack of tutorials or documentation on how to use specific fields when creating alerts or monitors. However, I’ve been informed that they have been working on updating their documentation, which should make the user experience even better.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As an e-commerce business we have hundreds of products to manage so keeping an eye on inventory was a challenge that Avenue helped us overcome. Now, we have real-time alerts for inventory levels which helps us avoid stock-outs and ensure seamless customer experience. We also leverage Avenue for order monitoring - keeping an eye on large orders and orders that have not been fulfilled in the targeted time. Lastly, the ability to automate incident response through playbooks has significantly improved our efficiency in resolving issues.

  ### 6. Fueling Operational Efficiency in Food-Tech with Avenue

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aditya N. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 03, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

What makes Avenue unique is its capacity to combine data from several platforms, offering a single picture that fosters useful ideas. The proactive alerting mechanism is actually a game-changer because it enables us to spot problems early and take action to prevent further damage. Additionally, operational effectiveness is increased by the easy interaction with programs like Twilio and Zendesk.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Since Avenue doesn't offer self-serve sign-up, we had to go through sales to get started. The sales team is excellent, but we couldn't simply sign up and start using the service without first meeting with someone.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our issue with operational visibility was greatly helped by Avenue. We may proactively handle operational difficulties by combining data from numerous sources and generating alerts based on predetermined rules. Our cancellation rates have decreased significantly as a result, going from 6% to 0.8%. Additionally, the tool's integration capabilities have greatly shortened our response times to customers, which has increased customer satisfaction and increased sales.

  ### 7. Huge time saver

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dimitri B. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

The previous manner in which we helped our Ops team was to have a member ping an engineer to get the data they needed. This wasn't always that easy since not all engineers had Prod access and there often wasn't an exact request (you need to dig around a bit to figure out what you really need). With Avenue, we've completely removed this step and our Ops team simply creates the Alerts it needs and then can just wait for any signals that pop up afterwards. This helps free up time for both teams.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Because it's not always totally clear what the Ops team needs to look up to find the problem, having AI suggestions that are based on the context of the database would be helpful.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The primary issue Avenue has helped us solve is to ensure we're pushing our customers throughout our sales pipeline in a timely manner. We've set up alerts to get notified when they've taken certain actions that we consider "wow" moments for the user, and that helps us reach out to them with the right context. We also have monitors for any issues so that we can provide them support before they even ask for it.

  ### 8. Incredible operations tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lucas H. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 20, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

I was the first employee at CommandBar so I wear many hats and needed a tool that would help me with stakeholder comms + transparency. As an early user of Avenue, I'm amazed by how much the tool has evolved and the responsiveness of the engineering team to feature requests. My favorite feature is the Slack integration and comment syncing across tools. Our team lives in Slack so we needed a tool that would augment our communications without forcing the team out of Slack. Being able to have real-time user data and event alerts come directly into our Slack channels has made a world of difference in how we manage workflows.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

While it doesn't take much time to set up a monitor, if you want an effective operations "control center" as Avenue pitches then you need to be intentional from the start how you are going to manage and organize Avenue (as you would any other tool). Before diving into building out monitors, you should make sure to plan what you want your workspace to look like. Avenue helps with this by having teams and working hours and things like that.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue has become a key tool for us in transitioning from a reactive to proactive approach to managing operations. It's allowed me to give executive leadership visibility into operations while streamlining my workflow across various teams. Being able to detect potential churn risks or customer confusion early and proactively has significantly improved our customer support volume and customer happiness metrics. Moreover, the time saved on not having to engage engineering resources is awesome.
In my experience, it's rare for a software solution to take into account everything that an end user needs and wants as effectively as Avenue does. It's been a game-changer in how we track critical business events and manage incidents efficiently.

  ### 9. Avenue: A Proactive Solution for Operations Efficiency

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gus G. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 17, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

As an engineer, I appreciate Avenue’s webhook monitors. The ability to trigger alerts based on a webhook is super useful. I also find the customization feature beneficial, especially being able to send communications to our customers through our email marketing tool, customer.io.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Avenue solves our current ops needs right now but it would be great if it had prompts for how you could improve operations. I imagine a “monitor suggestions” feature where Avenue tells you what companies like you monitor for.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue makes it a 2-minute task to set up a new monitor or alert vs. requiring engineering. It’s saved us valuable engineering time and resources by allowing us to catch issues early and address them proactively. The platform has helped us improve customer retention and happiness while reducing customer support volume and bug reports.

  ### 10. Avenue + Product Operations = Peace of Mind

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Joe S. | Head of Sales, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 18, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

The integrations Zendesk and Slack are my favorite parts of Avenue. It allows for comment syncing across different platforms, so each team can stay aware of all issues but also remain in their native tools. The internal notes feature in Avenue tickets also adds a layer of clarity, which is particularly beneficial during complex issue resolution (and good for referencing my own notes when we get to our monthly business reviews and I need to pull specific examples)

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

AI monitor suggestions!!! Write sql for me!

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue streamlines our product analytics reporting process. It helps us track new product launch issues in real time and automates our weekly reporting to the executive team. This has saved us approximately 3 hours each week, allowing us to focus more on strategic initiatives rather than manual report generation.

  ### 11. The tool for scaling brick&mortar operations

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ilona M. | Majority Shareholder, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 13, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

What impresses me most about Avenue is the way it seamlessly addresses the intricacies and challenges of managing operations for a rapidly expanding, brick-and-mortar franchise like Blank Street. Ability to structure communication, streamline issue reporting, and enhance operational oversight - all from a unified platform, has been very beneficial. Especially noteworthy is the mobile-device friendly interface that empowers our general managers to file tickets on-the-go, catering to the fast-paced nature of our business.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

While Avenue has been transformational in shaping our operational efficiency, it would be helpful to see a wider variety of customizable playbook templates. With each store having slight nuances in their operations and issues, more playbook customization would help us turbocharge our incident resolution process further.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue has resolved multiple challenges related to unstructured communication, elongated issue resolution periods, and inconsistent overview of operations. We're able to monitor critical metrics like revenue records and store operating times in real-time, leading to more informed decisions. In terms of benefits, Avenue has upheld our mission for scalable expansion - we've successfully opened new stores without operational hiccups thanks to proactive incident management empowered by Avenue's cutting-edge alerting and automation capabilities.

  ### 12. The best way to monitor your data

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Joshua H. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 12, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

Speaking as a CEO, there's so much to love about Avenue. Its accessibility and seamless integrations are game-changers! The fact that I can set rules on top of SQL data and fire off messages to customers through platforms like customer.io or WhatsApp is incredible. The signals tab is amazing - it serves as a one-stop hub where I can check in on all things operationally. It lets me keep my fingers on the pulse of everything happening at once.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Perhaps one slight hiccup initially was the vastness of functionality Avenue comes bundled with. It felt a little overwhelming initially, but getting hands-on quickly helped us understand its ins and outs. Honestly, that's a small price to pay for such an empowering tool!

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue has been instrumental in helping us overcome the operational challenges we used to face. The independence it gives us in managing our alerts and notifications has been fabulous - we no longer have to rely solely on our engineering team for every little adjustment, saving us significant time and resources. More importantly, it has taken automation to a different level altogether! With a simple click, we can now proactively engage customers based on data-driven insights (ahead of our weekly business reviews)

  ### 13. Scaling In-Home Care Operations with Avenue

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Adam S. | COO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 11, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

Avenue is a tool that simplifies complex operations at Axle Health. With its automation tools, we have never missed an important moment and have seen a reduction in administrative tasks, which results in more time for patient-focused care. Monitors are easy to create and has helped us act quickly when issues arise. The playbooking feature enables us to communicate effectively within our team and ensure accountability and traceability, which is important for a company providing healthcare services. Also, the system's ability to scale along with our growth gives me a lot of confidence.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

While it's helpful Avenue offers a ton of depth, new users can find the interface fairly complex at first glance. They were great in onboarding, but feel like more in-depth guidance or tutorials for first-time users may help them navigate better.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Before using Avenue, coordinating schedules was a time-consuming task. Thanks to Avenue's automation features, we now spend less time on scheduling and more time on patient care. With fewer scheduling errors and improved timeliness of visits, we've noticed increased patient satisfaction which directly contributes to our success as an in-home care provider.

  ### 14. Avenue: An Essential Tool for Proactive Customer Engagement and Incident Management

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Peter W. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 20, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

From a sales team POV, I appreciate Avenue’s ability to provide real-time monitoring of customer journeys. The tool’s alerting feature lets our team proactively reach out to customers who might be at risk of churning. The alerts around at-risk customers surface vital account information and give a playbook for how the AE should resolve. The integration with Salesforce is also a standout feature, ensuring that crucial alerts can auto-create Salesforce tasks makes it accessible throughout the day (and let’s our sales team stay in the tool they already live in)

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Avenue has been great thus far, it could improve its accessibility for team members who are less skilled in SQL. An automated SQL writing feature would be awesome.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue addresses the challenge of keeping track of critical customer events in real-time. Its monitoring capabilities allow us to identify customers who may not be fully utilizing our product or those who may be considering cancellation. This proactive approach saves us time, allows us to address potential issues before they escalate, and ultimately improves our customer retention rate. Additionally, Avenue’s playbooks streamline our incident response process by providing clear guidelines for handling various scenarios.
Overall, Avenue has become an important tool for ensuring our customer engagement strategies are proactive instead of reactive.

  ### 15. Prevent SLA breaches + ensure compliance with Avenue

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Daniel L. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 03, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

As an analytics manager, I appreciate Avenue's efficient and rapid setup time. Being able to set up a fully functioning monitor in just ten minutes is a major advantage. The elimination of the need for constant dashboard re-runs or troubleshooting broken zapier bots has been huge for saving time.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Based on my experience, I’ve found no downsides to using Avenue. It's a truly reliable and versatile tool for our business operations. Their customer service team always responds promptly and is quite friendly!

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue has fundamentally changed how we monitor our operations. Instead of investing precious hours creating dashboard reports or managing unreliable bots, we now have an all-in-one solution for real-time tracking and incident management. The efficient approach to SLA breach detection, data quality alerts, and seamless integrations has enhanced operational visibility and effectiveness.

  ### 16. Must-have tool for start-up founders

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Vinay A. | Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 20, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

Avenue has been a game-changer for our operations, offering real-time visibility into our processes and a centralized hub for issue tracking. Its all-inclusive pricing is an added advantage, providing great value for money. The ability to integrate with numerous tools we already use is convenient and made onboarding easy.

It's also super easy to setup.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Honestly, there's very little to dislike about Avenue. However, as with any tool, there's always room for improvement. It could probably be easier to create new monitors.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue has enabled us to proactively monitor user behaviors and catch anomalies in real-time. This has reduced the need for manual checks and allowed us to catch issues quickly before they become a bigger issue.

By using Avenue, we've managed to reduce engineering and improve customer satisfaction through timely support. The insights provided by Avenue also help us refine our product based on user behaviors.

  ### 17. Automate compliance with Avenue

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 04, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

Avenue gives our organization a more efficient, real-time alert system for our operations. The integration with Zendesk is our most used feature. The data quality alerts and SLA breach detection let us monitor for compliance and metrics around the clock instead of at the end of each month.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

As an early user of Avenue, we did encounter some minor UI bugs. However, these were small issues that did not disrupt usage and were promptly fixed by the customer experience team. The company’s commitment to continuous improvement is clear - they always respond quickly and make updates based on our requests.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue has solved several operational problems for us. It has reduced the dependence on engineering teams for building notifications and has improved our ability to track loan-level exceptions on SLAs and deadlines. With Avenue we have more visibility into our metrics and can spot trends before month-end. The ongoing support and responsiveness from the Avenue team have been really great.

  ### 18. Upleveling operational excellence, efficiency, & communication across the organization

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jack S. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 29, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

Avenue has allowed our team of operators, technicians, and in-field employees to proactively identify, communicate, and triage issues (& gamify wins) in a way we haven't been able to before. 

SQL-based monitors allow us to identify issues quickly, auto assignment & monitor routing allow us to involve the correct stakeholders consistently, and cross-channel communication sync's allow our team to work cohesively together.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

I'm answering this question like a personal interview where your weakness is "I work TOO hard", but i truly only have great things to say about Avenue.

As with most tooling, you have to be intentional with set-up. 

At a base level Avenue can give you timely, relevant insights into daily operations - but with some extra work you can tackle the entire issue lifecycle wrt communication, triaging, & overall process management.

The most difficult facet for us has been getting XFN buy in on playbooking monitors and the process on utilizing the tool internally.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue is providing proactive visibility into operational excellence + quality & allowing us to triage these issues quickly + efficiently -- reducing the dependency on tribal knowledge, elminating communication gaps, and minimizing time spent cutting tickets + triaging

  ### 19. Make engineers and operations lives easier with Avenue

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sean H. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 29, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

What I like most about Avenue is how our eng/ops teams can streamline ops alert setup. With Avenue, we can establish product ops alerts within minutes, not days, saving engineering time. The data enrichment feature is also great, it lets us combine data from two databases in minutes without relying heavily on upstream data engineering resources.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

If I had to nitpick, I would say that initial setup and integrations might require some technical expertise (specifically needing to know your DB credentials), but once up and running, it’s smooth sailing.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

By helping us set up alerts quickly and efficiently, Avenue allows us to identify issues early on, reducing the risk of larger disruptions down the line. This proactive approach to incident management has greatly benefited our operations. Engineering and ops have never gotten along better!!

  ### 20. Exceptional product, better team

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** John J. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 20, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

Using Avenue allowed me to easily stand up alerts with simple SQL to monitor and act on business performance. At Ramp, we used this to be alerted on escalations, manual processes, and customer behavior. It helped us identify broken systems and provide data and rationale to invest in scalability for our ops team. 

The team at Avenue is also exceptional - they rolled up their sleeves to work on product improvements and partnered closely on designing the product. They also were incredibly responsive to any questions and helped us stand up our first queries as part of onboarding.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

That I don't use it at my current role! 

The biggest challenge was the cold start problem: we didn't have an alerts strategy across our company. So we had to strategize on what that looked like, define the alerts, and then implement them. An onboarding solution that helps teams tackle that issue would be a great improvement.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Data visibility, alerting, operational SOPs, and case management. Avenue was helpful in doing all of that.

  ### 21. Easy to use no-code tool to help me stay on top of all critical business activity

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anuraag N. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

It's so easy to use! 

Love that I can just set up alerts on specific slack channels/my phone to monitor everything business-critical. Scaled smoothly for us as we grew and also while we pivoted our business model a few times.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Over time, we started using Avenue to get weekly/daily summaries of our business-critical metrics too (though I'm not sure if that's their intended use case). 

For that use case, the specific state value that we get from Avenue for those metrics is helpful, but it would be good to easily set up trend reports as well. This is probably also just me trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

1. Immediately get alerted to any business-critical failures on my database. 
2. Get alerts to track my growth metrics, and stay on top of all revenue-related activity.
3. Speeds up our turnaround time to various requests that we need to respond to on our marketplace

  ### 22. Operational Excellence with Avenue: A COO’s Perspective

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alejandro L. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 18, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

As COO of a healthcare e-commerce business, I value that Avenue gives me a comprehensive bird's eye view of our operations. The real-time alerts ensure that I am promptly notified of any issues, ensuring quick resolutions. The platform's seamless integration with our primary operational tools like Slack, WhatsApp and Intercom significantly enhances our team's efficiency and collaboration.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Even though the platform is generally excellent, as our team is based in Mexico it would be nice if there were language-specific support features or documentation.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue helped us transform our operations to be proactive instead of reactive. We use Avenue everywhere from payment, shippment, delivery times, inventory re-stock, problem flagging, customer succes alerts and more...

  ### 23. Real-Time Business Data Monitoring with Avenue - no more "sphaghetti code"

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dany C. | Founder, Data, Growth, Ops , Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 15, 2023

**What do you like best about Avenue?**

Avenue's real-time alerting system stands out; it keeps your team updated about crucial metrics without the need to constantly check dashboards. I also appreciate the flexibility of its alerting system, enabling adjustments to the alerts' frequency based on team requirements. Its integration capacity with frequently used tools such as Slack and Zendesk significantly streamlines the response process.

**What do you dislike about Avenue?**

Given that the review is generally positive, it's challenging to point out specific dislikes. I think the UI could be a bit cleaner.

**What problems is Avenue solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avenue efficiently solves the issue of critical metrics tracking and proactive problem solving. With its live alert system for key monetization metrics such as MRR and churn rate, teams can act immediately when a metric drops rather than reacting to month-old data from conventional dashboards.
