critical function for our daily business

excellent - the most critical app we use with our website

PROS

the ease of use and ability to display, aggregate and deploy data for our day to day use is incredible. it accesses all data captured from our website and is able to to provide preformatted reports or custom reports. it allows for scheduled reporting via email or syncing to google sheets - we have our main production workflow based off of a core report and cascading reports that is displayed real time.

CONS

learning curve for custom reports can be a little steep at first, but this is supplemented by amazing and responsive customer support

A rapid solution to our need for easily managed scale reporting across our Stripe Connect portfolio

We're gaining visibility of multi-merchant data, at scale, that would be impossible to share in Stripe (we even tried Stripe's own Sigma reporting tool). This is near real time (hourly in our case), we have so much freedom in how we use the data, and the experience has been made perfect by the high level of support from the folks at BetterReports.

PROS

We assessed multiple products but BetterReports were the only provider to really understand our use case, work with us to solve it, and provide a tool with an exceptionally flexible report building interface (some of the underlying or optional query power is fantastic) and offering a unique workflow to push data out into our Google Sheets environment where we run imports and lookups to power live summaries and graphs. Alongside this the best thing about the software is the support which is fast, experienced, and helpful.

CONS

I can't say there is much I don't like because the solutions we have figured out more than outweigh the limitations - I expected the standard of the administration portal and the lack of variety on user types to be a disappointment but in the end understanding we use the tool to push data elsewhere to be used by folks (off the back of a ridiculous amount of large-scale data consolidation from Stripe)

Reason for choosing Better Reports

It took time to query our use case with all the vendors but in the end Plecto, Putler, and Baremetrics simply don't support Stripe Connect accounts (where you're dealing with multiple merchants' data, not just one). Additionally Baremetrics only thinks about subscriptions yield. Flatly was a viable contender as they offered to solve the use case, but since they are exclusively about data transportation, whereas BetterReports gives us a tool to build and view the reports first before pushing to GoogleSheets, it is a reliable single tool. Plus BetterReports support and engagement of their team was hugely reassuring.

Reasons for switching to Better Reports

Stripe's native reporting or their Sigma product provide only very basic solutions to reporting across a Stripe Connect merchant portfolio, and certainly without the necessary clarity and control for users who only need dashboards and reporting. BetterReports has helped us curate powerful standalone views which better still our teams can incorporate into other reports and analysis directly in G-Suite.

Very helpful software & reps

PROS

Not only does it work great, but the reps are happy to help us get what we need out of it when our users aren't sure how.

CONS

I don't have any complaints. One thing that might be nice is making it easier for more types of people to build reports, without limiting the capabilities of the program. Not sure how exactly that would look as it seems fairly easy already.

Powerful Software, Incredible Support

I need custom reports delivered to me on regular cadences - some daily, some weekly, and some monthly. I often like to dig through data in new ways, and the Better Reports team is always available to help me configure things.

PROS

Better Reports comes with a handful of pre-built useful reports. Where it really shines is in its ability to customize any data and save it as a new report, then email that report to you on a regular cadence. When you have questions or need help setting up custom reports, the Better Reports team is always there to help. I've never gone more than a couple hours before receiving helpful responses and delivered solutions. They even go above and beyond and ask questions to help you get at better and more accurate data.

CONS

The reports builder is slightly confusing. It takes someone pretty seasoned and technical to really build awesome reports by yourself. The visual reports (bars, graphs, etc.) are lacking and so the vast majority of the reports we use are purely numbers based. The overall interface is super basic and could do with a face lift to improve user friendliness.

Reason for choosing Better Reports

The overall user friendliness and ability to view the reports comfortably on mobile. Scheduling of reports was also a smoother and more naturla task.

Custom Reports That Multiple Departments Use Daily

It's like having all the freedom of a SQL database but with the user-friendliness of a visual reporting system.

PROS

That it's so easy to set up and pulls data from various sources in my Shopify Store. It shows better data than Shopify itself and if there's something you want to see that isn't currently available, the Better Reports support team will likely be able to create it for you using custom SQL code.

CONS

The price - I'm not saying it's not worth it but a Shopify subscription really adds up when you pay monthly fees for each app and this one costs more than most.

Reason for choosing Better Reports

It was the only one that was able to show the reports I and the other departments at my company needed.

They are magic

PROS

I came to Better Reports because I needed an easy way for my business to track sales of an item that requires customers to submit a license if they're buying more than a certain amount per year. Better Reports was able to create that report for me easily, and within a day. That single report alone saves me hours a week, even if I barely use the standard reports (but I do use those, too). Since then, I have come up with a handful of other custom reports I have wanted, and each time they have replied quickly and with the report I needed. They are magic and every new report feels like Christmas.

CONS

The interface is a tad daunting if you want to start making custom reports, but if you sit down with it for a bit, it starts to make sense. Anyway, their customer service is spot-on.
