Report Writing Software

One thing I dislike is that some useful templates and design elements are locked behind the paid plan, which can feel limiting when working on more creative projects. Also, when editing more detailed designs, the editor can occasionally slow down, especially on mobile devices. These issues are not major, but improving performance and offering a few more free features would make the experience better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Canva solves the problem of creating clean and professional designs without needing advanced design software or technical skills. It saves me time by providing ready-made templates and easy editing tools, so I don’t have to build layouts from scratch. This helps me produce content more consistently and focus more on ideas instead of struggling with design setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The licensing cost adds up quickly as more users need access, and it requires a good amount of system resources, so performance slows with large datasets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Tableau to turn raw data into clear, interactive dashboards, making it easier to spot patterns, track performance, and make smart decisions. It brings multiple data sources together and streamlines reporting, facilitating team communication by sharing real-time dashboards without needing original files. Its integrations are very useful; I use Google Sheets with it to track usage of products and what my users (customers) like more, and its native connector for databases like AWS Redshift is being used for data visualization and streamline data analysis Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It gets slower sometimes when I'm working in the integration of multiple datasets. Connecting multiple data sources is difficult if the formats of both have a lot of discrepancies, and it also slows down the reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Microsoft Power BI for interactive dashboards and automating reporting, which improves my financial decision-making. DAX simplifies calculations, and automatic sync updates my files effortlessly, enhancing accuracy and efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is not very efficient for non-Google products and sometimes it's paid for certain platforms. Setup is easy though it takes time especially when I need to blend the reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The experience has been fantastic thus far. Kyvos has been stable, simple to navigate, and has completely met my performance expectations to date without any discrepancies at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Prior to implementation of Kyvos we experienced poor analytical performance and delays in our data insight during average to high-volume usage operational periods. Kyvos has improved our performance by removing performance bottlenecks and providing us with much faster data insights and capability to make timely data-based business decisions.

I used to have issues with adding dates for historical Google reviews but that seems to have gone. Now (and again, super tiny issue), it's just a user experience thing. when pop-up windows open within a page, often the 'close window option' is not visible on screen (it's super pale on my monitor and you just can't see it) so it's a bit frustrating 'cause you can't move on from this until you finally find the close window X Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My most recent query was regarding the renewal process. I sent my query, the response was incredibly speedy, very thorough and, most importantly, in plain English and really easy to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The initial setup process proved somewhat complex and required substantial IT support to implement correctly across all departments. The advanced features have a steep learning curve that necessitated multiple training sessions for team members who aren't technically inclined. I've noticed occasional synchronization delays when handling very large files, which sometimes creates version control issues during critical project phases. The reporting module, while comprehensive, lacks some flexibility in exporting data to specific formats our finance department requires. The pricing structure becomes significantly more expensive as you add more users, which makes scaling challenging for growing teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This platform fundamentally solved our communication gap problems between remote team members across different time zones. Before implementation, we struggled with version control issues where team members would work on outdated documents, leading to rework and missed deadlines. The automated workflow features reduced our project deployment time by approximately 30% by eliminating manual handoff processes. The centralized documentation repository eliminated the problem of duplicate files and conflicting versions that previously caused confusion and errors in our deliverables. The permission settings allowed us to maintain security while enabling appropriate access levels across different team roles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I know that my team always has a hard time on launch day when new products come out. It significantly slows down the rest of Domo. But all things considered, like, that's a you know, once a month max problem. And it usually bounces back pretty quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Domo lets our sales teams easily access data and contacts in real-time on their phones. It's user-friendly for nontechnical folks, making it easy to create visualizations without coding and train our team on filtering and date ranges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If I had to nitpick, the initial UI for the truly deep engineering stuff can be a little much for new users, but once you get past the initial setup (which is covered well by Customer Support and training), the daily use is very intuitive. The Interactive Sessions feature is also amazing for cutting down on Spark job startup time, making my day-to-day work way more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ILUM solves a few major headaches that were common in the big data world. The main problem is fragmentation—trying to stitch together separate, expensive data lakes and data warehouses, which leads to messy data silos, inconsistent results, and a lot of unnecessary work. Older proprietary systems like Cloudera or Databricks are costly and lock you in. ILUM gets rid of those problems. It's an open-source based Data Lakehouse platform that unifies everything.

For me as a user, this translates to tangible benefits. First, it is much faster. The interactive Spark sessions eliminate those 20-40 second job start times, and processing can be up to twice as fast overall. This means I'm not waiting on the infrastructure; I'm actually doing my job. Second, it's cheaper and more efficient. The platform is zero-license, Kubernetes-native, and runs anywhere (cloud, on-prem, hybrid), which drastically cuts infrastructure costs—we talk about 60% savings for clients. That budget can go to actual development, not just licensing fees. Third, it provides clarity and governance with features like automated Data Lineage and a central Data Catalog, so I can trust the data's quality and know exactly where it's been. In short, it lets me focus on the challenging and valuable work of data science and analytics instead of wrestling with complex, slow, and expensive tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I previously was the ability to report ROAS automatically. It was only possible to add this manually. However, I am not sure whether this is currently supported. For now, this is not a priority for my dashboards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Swydo to visualize campaign data in an appealing way, combining multiple sources into structured dashboards. It gives me an easy overview of results to use in client meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think there could be more guidance for different types of API connections for popular platforms like Shopify, Google Analytics, and Tableau. It can take time to get everything set up correctly the first time with Knowi's platform and API documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Knowi to dashboard ecommerce performance, eliminating the need for manual CSVs and handling data beyond Google Sheets limits. It ensures my data is current, saves time, provides easy consumption, and the onboarding and support help resolve issues fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, I can't find any faults with it at all; everything seems to be working perfectly without any issues. The quality and performance have exceeded my expectations, and I have thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It's rare to come across something that meets all my criteria so well. Overall, I'm genuinely impressed and satisfied with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think Hex is still figuring out the enterprise use case in general. I tried to use Hex's semantic features, but even though it was supposed to be in my plan, I was not able to access it until very recently. So I think, in terms of the admin panel or the platform itself, there might be some issues here and there. However, I think the team is very responsive whenever you do have a problem. I've noticed that it's very difficult to export from Hex. I wish there was a cleaner way to export the data files from Hex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Hex for data analysis, and it's great for starting my research. The generative AI tools help consolidate results, separate noise from signals, and explain findings simply. Its self-healing properties and natural language threads enhance productivity without much intervention. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Quite time intensive to set everything up- though the time savings will come later down the line. The AI needs to be very precise in order to get a useful summary from it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have a bunch of reports that we run each month with loads of different views from Tableau. Each month we are copying and pasting in the graphs and it's really time consuming and by default expensive. This will save us a lot of time and allow us to put resources into other areas of the business and should minimize human errors when creating the charts too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Regarding areas for improvement, I do have a few ideas.

I think the construction of frames could live in a separate canvas, similar to how Tableau approaches dashboards. This would offer the best of both worlds: plots would remain close to the queries that generate their data, while still allowing the creation of a dedicated dashboard that brings everything together.

There are also some smaller usability issues that can make the interface feel unintuitive at times. For example, when creating custom plots, individual marks cannot be named, which makes it harder to understand what each mark represents. Similarly, when multiple marks are used, it’s not always clear which variable is assigned to the secondary axis.

Some solutions also feel a bit hacky—for instance, adding vertical lines to indicate events by using bar plots, where it’s not always obvious how to control the bar width cleanly.

Overall, these are relatively minor points. They don’t slow me down in my day-to-day work, and I see them more as a wishlist than as real blockers. As with any tool, there is always room for improvement—but Count is already a superb product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Count solves the problem of fragmented analytics workflows by bringing queries, plots, text, and reviews into a single place, which makes analyses naturally self-documenting. This benefits me because I can always trace results back to their underlying logic and interpretation without losing context. It also addresses code duplication by allowing results to be referenced across tiles, in a way that feels similar to a DAG in dbt. As a result, I can break complex queries into clear, reusable components and iterate much faster.

Count also solves the rigidity of traditional dashboards by giving you control cells to define filters directly in the analysis. This gives me far more flexibility than organization-level filters and avoids the need for hacky workarounds. Another key problem it solves is reviewability: comments, interpretations, and feedback live right next to the data. That makes collaboration easier and decisions easier to justify.

Finally, Count reduces the risk of getting stuck with tool limitations thanks to a very responsive support team. Knowing that feedback is heard and often translated into product improvements makes me confident in relying on Count for my day-to-day analytical work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it’s difficult to make the Sigma panel look exactly like the application design. I find the styling options somewhat limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s an excellent tool that benefits me a lot and saves me time. Now I don’t have to spend so much time in program dashboards; instead, Sigma takes care of the heavy data work, and I can focus on the application architecture and the user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While SAS Viya is powerful, the transition from traditional SAS 9.4 can sometimes feel challenging, especially when certain procedures or workflows do not behave exactly the same way. Some advanced features require additional configuration or licensing, which can limit access depending on the setup. In addition, for new users, the interface and ecosystem can feel a bit overwhelming at first, particularly when navigating between different applications (e.g., Visual Analytics, Model Studio, programming). A smoother learning curve and clearer guidance for users migrating from earlier SAS versions would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SAS Viya helps solve the challenge of analyzing large, complex datasets efficiently while maintaining reproducibility and transparency. It provides scalable computing power, which is especially valuable when working with mixed models, high-dimensional data, or collaborative research projects. The integration of visual tools with programming also streamlines the workflow from data management to modeling and reporting. For me, this improves efficiency in both research and teaching, allowing me to demonstrate advanced methods clearly while handling real-world datasets more effectively.
