We were able to acccomplish the following; 1. It's easy to analyse our datasets. 2. We can create any variation of dashboards and implement it for our client usage in seconds.

Holistics aim to make it easy for semi-tech users to be able to make an analysis on their own without the need for technical assistance. It's really easy to set up and you can get running within minutes after connecting your databases.

As your databases get more complex and you require some processing before merging the relationships, Holistics might not be the best software. That said, they are probably not designed for this function.

Holistics has successfully become part of the fabric of our business, underpinning our efforts to become data driven while offering good value for money for the number of users and representing a low TCO due to low admin overhead.Coming from a Looker background, I was very familiar with its concepts of analytics-as-code, and generally we have been able to achieve everything we needed in terms of reporting. The experience can lack the polish of Looker but this is definitely fuller featured than Looker in its early days.

Good value for money, excellent scaling from small number of usersAnalytics as codeExcellent scheduled export options - email/slack/ftp/Google sheetsShare dashboards with external usersRuns native SQL on top of cloud datawarehouseDecent out of the box visualisation and dashboardingAd-hoc query building and sharingSupport for custom visualisations (via Vega-Lite, maps via geojson)Customer support is pretty responsive (within limits of timezones)Low admin overheadGithub integrationDBT integration

Custom business calcs currently pretty limited compared to Looker (they are working on this in their roadmap)Adding new widgets to busy dashboards can be time consuming due to lack of auto-scrollingGenerated SQL more difficult to follow due to obfuscated naming conventionsNo many-to-many joins or looker-like fanout management via symmetric aggregates (warnings given instead).Model relationships have to be on a single business key, sql join logic not supported (no > < range joins)No capability to separate front-end presentation BI model from underlying data modelNo dynamic variables (currently in roadmap)Company and engineers' office location means PII cannot be exposed via the tool

Unusable and unresponsive

When it works, it can work like a charm.

The web UI. Oh my its one of the least usable UI / Web I have yet encountered. Buttons are unresponsive. Things needed done are nested deep and imagine having to traverse unresponsive elements. I have always complain to my boss on why some reports are not being tended to, Ill simply say its unusable how are you to expect me to work

We started working with Holistics as an alternative to powerBI and with the support of the Holistics crew we managed to get an extensive set of reports and dashboard up in no time. The option to email reports to multiple users is very handy.

It's really easy to setup and within minutes you have reports and dashboards that you can easily distribute. The support from the Holistics team is great, if you have questions or feature requests they respond quickly.

It is not as extensive as some other products but for most users this wont be an issue. What you do have to keep in mind is that the queries are ran on your server so it can give some pressure on your DB.

Great experience overall. Has helped our business a lot. We thought their customer support would be a problem since they are ona different time zone in Asia, but they have pleasantly surprised us with very in depth and responsive answers.

Features/functionality. We've tested about a dozen or so BI softwares until we finally ended up on Holistics. One of the major pros of Holistics is the features/functionality that some of the other companies do not support or they just have it implemented entirely different (in ways that just don't make as much sense). Also, their new data modeling functionality seems far better than the overly complicated data modeling layer at Looker (another company we considered).

Not a lot of bad things to say, otherwise we wouldn't be subscribed to them.

- Enabled stakeholder access to data via self-serve, reduced data team BAU burden and allowed us to focus on higher value task- Works well with the Modern Data Stack paradigm- Great in our requirement discovery phase, when we weren't sure what kind of regular dashboards would be needed. Allowed stakeholders/users to do the first level of requirement discovery via their own self-serve, and iterated on that afterwards.

- Reasonable pricing per-user, good for data democratisation initiatives- Self-serve tooling and data set are more flexible than most competitors, while remaining quite reliable- Very easy to set up and connect to data warehouse, with dbt and git integrations- Team regularly releases new features

- Access control are less granular than the big enterprise products- Covers the majority of basic data visualisations, but highly customised visualisations are more difficult (via custom Vega viz)

I've been a customer of Holistics for around 2 years now, since 2018. We love Holistics and find it an invaluable tool to run our business.

- Very easy to use. Unlike other tools, I got the hang of Holistics pretty fast. I'm the one in charge of creating reports for people in my company, so Holistics saved me quite a bit of time on this and I managed to spend my time doing other important stuff. - I like how Holistics have helped me to automate some of the repetitive tasks. We sent out email schedules automatically for everyone on our team to stay updated. - Good customer service - Fast support team

- Issues in data imports does not always have enough context. - Some minor bugs, not a big issue as they fixed the bugs quite fast. If they can't fix it, they would get back to us with a workaround. The people in their support know the product well.

We can build custom report easily without having to think how we translate it into visualization.

The products is easy to use. Basically it has a standard query builder, and from the result we can build the visualizatio as we like. And the interesting part, we can build one query and reuse based on filter templates

I can say the access time, sometimes its depend on the internet access but also when all user access dashboard at the same time we need to wait a bit longer to show the report

Overall Holsitics has been a big help in allowing us to sureface our data to the business.

The software simply works as advertised. The price to value ratio for us is also quite high. The speed at which they're able to resolve bugs for us has also been quite impressive.

We use Bigquery and found that there are some Bigquery specific features which would help us quite a bit which they don't support (Like the preview feature or the query validator)

We used Holistics for mostly for adhoc queries to scheduled reports. Compared to competitors, the value is unbeatable.

The team behind Holistics was very responsive to our requests for features. Linking to and ingesting from various data sources was easy. Reports could be scheduled and delivered via email.

There was very little to not like about Holistics. The team was quick to respond to feature requests or bug reports.

Holistics makes it easy for data team to create and manage different dashboards and reports, with query templates to make it easier to maintain the SQL query codes across different reports. Having an ETL option makes it a big plus to have a full-stack solution. One constant surprise that Holistics always give is that the features developed by the team is always on-point, and what we really wanted. The support team is responsive even on weekends. Keep up the good work! Most BI tools have the end-users in mind and often is a nightmare for the data team to create and manage the different dashboards and reports. We were on RJMetrics and tried to look through other solutions like Lookr, Mode, and none of the alternatives were better than RJ Metrics. Decision to go ahead with Holistics was made within 10 mins. It offers

The UI of the dashboard is not as good as the other BI tools. While the metrics dashboard is a good ideal, not allowing query templates to work in metrics dashboard makes it not possible to use it as our daily dashboard.

We have built visualizations in Holistics that took it way beyond the 'out-of-the-box' tools. WE are exploring the embedding of the advanced custom charts and have been quite successful. Overall, once we formulated our framework and truly understood the requirements for preventing circular relationships, we have found it easy to work in and very effective at communicating what information really resides within our data.

We are a startup with a limited budget and, after a review of our options, Holistics became an excellent choice to get us going in BI without the typical huge annual expense. The team at Holistics immediately responded to one of my requests for an enhancement to the tool before we had signed our first contract. Incredible! I have not ever had that kind of customer service. It is a powerful tool for a reasonable price from a great company.

We need the ability to build an interface with guardrails for our less tech-savvy users and there is no way to build a custom landing page as of yet. We would also like the ability to copy a report between data sources. Export and import of the metadata would suffice.

Holistics contains many useful features that allows you to create end to end analytics solution without much coding or technical knowledge (SQL is the only thing you need). It can manage everything from data transport to transform to data visualisation and report delivery.

Lack of APIs is one drawback for more advanced organisations.

I love the filters, email schedules and the data imports. The fact that those are pretty useful and sort of painless to use to me is great. But most of what I like is the support and constant improvements made to the product! (love that new years animation in the menu bar too). Looking forward to more innovations hopefully some simple machine learning implementations that can help us clean and visualize data

People in my organization tend to export a report and do pivots and simple excel-like things to the data which I find to be very counter-productive so maybe introducing a feature to sort that out would be helpful. I wish it had a more Google Drive sharing and viewing system, right now if I give access to a report, to a particular user, that user also sees the folder in which that report lies which is not really cool, they also don't have the ability to manage their reports much. Nothing else I can think of off the top of my head.

Awesome experience and great team. Once more companies learn about Holistics, they will being taking a huge chuck of the share from the big players in the market for sure.

I love the product. Reports are simple to create. The Metrics over time are a great feature and reduces need for complex date joins. I use scheduled report emails for alerting. Slack integration. The support is phenomenal-- one of the best support teams I have encountered in dealing with countless software platforms.

Potentially could get pricey for large orgs who might require over 6000 reports?

Ease of use, has been instrumental in my understanding of our business (worked less than 5 months in it). Without this easy to use tool that is very user friendly i would still be grasping at straws.

Sometimes slow in updating, but this is most likely related to the backoffice (ours) that it extracts data from

- Holistics Support is very responsive. - Holistics always make improvements of its features and transparent about the roadmap to its customers - Holistics is the ultimate BI Tools that provides email reporting schedule feature.

- Loading query is still relatively longer than other BI tools. - Holistics UX less attractive/eye-catching

Topup and settle to driver in time

very useful for user, there are many kind of data to analytics, support reports for the job. Can check for updates to standard Gamma or not, cross-check, adjust and update.

always meet issue, for example: not full figures, cannot download data, data empty, export slowly...

The positioning of Holistics among other BI tools are very unique hence complement the needs of Holistics even though we are already equipped with other more well known BI software. Using Holistics has been made very intiuitive especially for data analyst / engineer that already has familiarity with writing sql code. We very much like the ability of Holistics in performing ETL job and its scheduling ability. Last but not least, their heartfull customer service practice and and their proactive approach in taking feedback from customers are the one true quality that set them apart from the others.

The pricing scheme can get a bit tricky which can be very costly on some use case.

Overall the software is user-friendly and easy to navigate. The members from customer support team are also helpful and friendly.

The dropdown filter in Holistics. I like how Holistics allows report creator to query the dropdown filter inside each report. With the permission feature inside the dropdown filter, it also allows us to show only certain selection of data to certain group of user in the dropdown list.

So far I have not come across any less favorite feature in this software.

1. user friendly interface 2. really help for our bussiness needs (I checked and tried all of this kind of services) 3. good price 3. CS is great and fast

Not as fast as one would like, often there is a warning "This page does not respond" and I have to wait

Gives my team and i a lot of fun. Familiarity with sql being the key requirements is a big help.

Integrated environment, seamless process and fuss-free deployment. Connects fluently with modern data infrastructure, letting the user gets to the result fast.

Of course, being new, some features are missing. But, definitely not a showstopper.

Prompt product support team Agile development Easy to integrate

Lack of localization Filtering uses text values

The product is really easy to use with nice to have features such has automatic email delivery, automated slack schedules of embedded dashboards. Also the customer support is really fast.

Entry and standard plans limits are easily reached and more customization of the graphs would be nice.

Save my clicking time to send a report.

Automation on the report to be send at particular time.

Wish to have R capability, So I could create a graph and automated it to send every day.
