Usability
GoodData
GoodData provided us with strong overall usability and provided us a platform for various business analytics. Its user-friendly and insightful reports and also the dashboards. Me and my team really appreciate the platform's ability to streamline decision-making processes. However, there is a learning curve during initial setup as I mentioned before. Continuous improvements in the onboarding could further enhance GoodData's usability as well.

Return on Investment
GoodData
  • We have been able to quickly go to market with a feature-rich version of our application.
  • The licensing costs are manageable but make our offering more expensive than alternatives.
  • The possibility to horizontal scaling with Kubernetes is a bright outlook for our business.

Metabase
  • It is serving us whatever we're looking for, and we've recommended many organizations to implement it if they want better data analytics as it provides better functionality than we will build.
  • As a negative it gets difficult to get control over data to be fetch initially.
