"A Financial Analytics tool across many industries that's helpful"
What do you like best about Reveal?

Forecasting of sales, revenue opportunities, and visibility into high level metrics and dashboards is communicated well. It is also helpful for a wider array of industries.

"Helps me run my Business!"
What do you like best about Reveal?

Easy to use. I can connect my Google Sheets to the application and create easily consumable dashboards for my manager. I run a martial arts school so it's important we have up to date billing, attendance and registrations available to the teachers at all times. Getting started it was easy to experiment with how a visual should look, and I can change colors to match what made sense to me. The first thing I did was watch video tutorials on YouTube and I was on my way. I know there are many features I do not use, for the most part, having an easy way to communicate complex numbers in beautiful charts is what I needed, and Reveal does this for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Reveal?

I've used tools like this in the past, Reveal is the easiest one to use, and it's much better than the built-in screens from our Student Management app. Plus, I can share the dashboards I have created with everyone in like 2 clicks. I have used Excel Spreadsheets and Google Sheets from my DropBox, since I can set an export rule on our Student Management app. This means my charts are always up to date. There are many data connections available in Reveal, however I do not use all of them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Simple and Easy BI-Tool !"
What do you like best about Reveal?

We are currently implementing Reveal into are ERP package and find the In-Memory support for Data Grids wonderful and easy to use. Because of this In-Memory support, we are able to implement various graphs and chart to all of our functions.

The system was easy to understand and was simple to implement into our existing framework.

The interface was also easy to navigate through, so there was no need to create a manual for our clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Reveal?

Overall we are satisfied with Reveal, but there are many icons and buttons we wish were not visible our clients.

We hope for settings that will be able to change this int the near future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reveal: Simple, Powerful, Intuitive & Insightful"
What do you like best about Reveal?

What I like the very best about Reveal is that it truly does what it states. All too often, especially in the world of data visualization and analytics, you find that the product is UI deep (meaning sexy UI - not deep on the features). Reveal does not only have a sexy UI, but the feature set is robust and truly does enable business decision making. Data visualization is all too often the emphasis of business intelligence, but with Reveal you do have the ability to get into your data and understand what is occurring. Furthermore, it doesn't take a lot of effort or specialized training to not only get productive, but realize results. Reveal is easy to use and allows you to become intimate with your data in just a couple of hours. Ultimately, as I said, it does what it says and now that I think about it, I guess it earns it's name - Reveal actually does reveal insights into your data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Reveal?

I am not sure if there is anything I truly dislike. Reveal was easy enough to get up and running and allowed us to use a variety of data formats as well as employ various visualizations and share that information. I guess if there was anything that I would wish for is some type of advanced user training or virtual Reveal Training Camp to see if there are things we could be doing that we aren't doing. We like to push the boundaries of the tools we employ, so maybe there are things we could be doing better. That said, we have been able to create some rather powerful dashboards and no one is complaining. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Reveal is simple to install and configure. Dashboards are produced in minutes and it is easy to consult them from any platform and device. Dashboards fit well on both Android and Apple smartphones and are always available. Consultation takes place quickly wherever you are and with very good response times.

What do you dislike about Reveal?

in the various versions, desktop, iOs and Android presents several bugs, but the support, once reported, does its duty to correct them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
