Pretty Standard BI Tool
We used it a lot in the beginning, then it didn't match our salesforce, so we lost trust.
Pros
Get's the job done. Easy to pivot and deep dive. Visualizations look pretty slick, and packed with features. Relatively easy to import data from warehouse.
Cons
Not much transparency reduces trust from the team. Small errors are hard to troubleshoot and result in not using the dashboard much. No SQL CLI makes it disappointing for power users.

Pros
Looker has allowed my company to organized and dig deeper into data that we collect in our CRM. You can really get down to the specific details of things. I like that you can easily create a look whenever needed and have the option to not save it if it's not needed again. I also like LookerBot for Slack.
Cons
It definitely has a bit of a learning curve. I still struggle with creating some reports but as someone who is not data-centric I've learned how to use it pretty well
