Datastripes hits a really nice sweet spot for data work for me. Standard spreadsheets usually leave me stuck in a rigid grid format that looks more like a rough internal analysis than something ready for stakeholders and managers, but jumping to heavy coding or complex BI tools is too much sometimes. Datastripes solves that by being pretty intuitive to use, but still giving me the type of analysis that other spreadsheets would require nested complex formulas (when available) to get, and clean personalized dashboards easy to share and ready to go.

While the platform does a great job of staying intuitive, you still can't entirely avoid technical terms. Less experienced users might occasionally struggle to figure out specific things, such as what changing specific parameters will actually do in the forecasts. Since info tooltips are kind of my little obsession, I would really love to see more helper tooltips added around the UI to quickly explain those concepts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
