I really like the flexibility to come up with reports and dashboards linking multiple sources where other tools like Salesforce Report Builder struggles with. In addition their integration with Notion is great for me to easily share live-boards with peers and leaders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Count is great for building clear, consistent metric trees, which makes it so much easier to keep everyone aligned on the numbers and help us as data scientists debug any drops in our key metrics. It’s also super quick to create visual reports for stakeholders, which is great when you need to move fast without sacrificing clarity. It really helps streamline our reporting and keeps things moving quickly in our fast paced business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Count is a game-changing tool in the data analytics space, offering a fresh, collaborative approach that many users find both innovative and practical. It’s a new way to explore, understand, and work with data. The canvas-style layout makes it easy to visualize metrics, build dashboards, and collaborate with teams in real time.

One of Count’s standout features is its seamless blend of SQL, Python, and visualization capabilities within a single environment. This not only simplifies data exploration but also streamlines the entire workflow. The integration of DuckDB enhances performance, allowing users to cache and reuse queries without incurring extra costs, a feature praised by both engineers and data analysts alike.

Ultimately, Count empowers teams to break free from traditional dashboards, fostering a more interactive and intuitive data analysis experience. As the platform continues to mature, it’s clear that Count is well on its way to becoming a leader in the BI space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the tool’s flexibility is one of its strengths, some users note that the canvas can become cluttered if not managed properly. Additionally, a few minor UI issues and the learning curve of the visualization library are areas for improvement. However, Count’s responsive development team is quick to address feedback, making users feel like they’re part of the product’s evolution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Count has been a key tool for daily exploration and investigation tasks. The canvas-style layout is super intuitive as it keeps everything in one place, from exploring datasets to building out reports with visuals. It makes working with stakeholders way smoother and I like how I can lay out multiple queries on a single canvas. It's also a great way to show my thinking and make it easier for others in the team to follow along. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having lots of long queries on a single canvas tend to slow things down a bit and since the tool's still fairly new, there are a few features I'd love to see added. That said, the team at Count is open to feedback and super helpful whenever anyone in the team runs into issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the canvas approach to data analysis very intuitive, and it facilitates deep-dives into of insights questions while presenting a clear picture of the steps to my work. Count's ability to quickly import and match static csv data alongside data warehouse queries makes it particularly valuable when working with a range of inputs.

I have also found Count to be an effective way to collaborate and share insights with stakeholders, both in a classic report format and in a canvas that allows for them to explore further themselves. The speed at which I can build and edit visuals in the canvas is incredibly useful when I need to give clear answers to ad-hoc queries.

The Count team are also very responsive to requests for support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a couple of limitations - Count can only import packages that are either in pyodide or a pure python package.

Formatting can sometimes be an issue - in the past, I've built a canvas to be shared, then found certain visual elements have changed slightly with an update.

The main problem I had previously was that Count slowed down a lot for very large canvases, but I think they now have a fix for this in which DuckDB runs on the server instead. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
