One of the Best I've Used
Starting with dispersed data we now have one place for it. We also now have a single place to create reporting where before it was happening all over. Modeling a complex multi-touch model would take months to do and this technology allowed us to be up and running in less than a month. The only challenges we faced were caused by our own data quality.
Pros
The ability to pull in so many different data sets from so many different places. As a marketer pulling in data from google analytics, AdWords, automation platform, salesforce, etc. really allowed us to fast-track our reporting and made it to where we do not have to build a custom data model but get out of the box plug-ins with Chartio. The modeling is simple and easy to follow.
Cons
I really have yet to find something I dislike

A highly configurable tool for the technical team and technical marketer
It’s a great experience. It present data that is critical to every single portion of our business and provides highly valuable insight in the health and performance of the business.
Pros
There is a ton you can do with Chartio right out of the box without much technical ability. THat said, the more you know about your data and how it is structured, the more you can do with Chartio. SQL skills make the platform easier to configure and use but is not a required skill.
Cons
It’s a little bit tough to handle huge data sets and make sure data connections are correct. I think that other than that the customization and configurability of Chartio is great.
Reasons for Switching to Chartio
We were using a custom database that was easier to connect using Chartio and their support team than Google Data Studio.

Remarkable tool for handling data so easily
Chartio is offering me its services in data exploration and transform the data segments in synchronized form so that with a glance I take in account the major queries and handles changing date groupings seamlessly. Further I can directly make changes to SQL and easily I shuffle the text-based SQL mode. I have never faced any issue with smart error highlighting, with Auto formatting and with SQL version control. Also to manage the interactive filter variables is very easy.
Pros
The main part which I like is the graphical representation of the data as it helps in easy understanding of the current trends. Also I can customize the view with great ease thus not only in data customization but also in data representation, it is offering quality services.
Cons
The limited data storage capacity is problem for me. Its dashboard needs to have more attention for proper working. Further no doubt it provides version control but still it is difficult to make certain changes.

Great, but big margin to improve
Very flexible, as long as the right data is synced, almost anything is possible. Quite a lot can be done without knowing to do queries, which is great. But the layout/design is outdated.
Pros
-Flexible -Great integrations -Relatively easy to use without SQL skills
Cons
-Layout outdated -No wizards or help for setup

Enterprise-grade BI for mid-market price and complexity
BI, visualization, SQL queries, Postgres visualization, BigQuery visualization
Pros
With Chartio, you can run from data to visualization in seconds, even if you don't know SQL. Chartio has a visual editor, clear and easy joins and table keys, a huge range of preconfigured data sources, and easy dashboard and folder management. Chartio is also one of the few, if not the only BI tool that can be embedded into your app and managed through tokens or SAML authentication. All in all, expect professional grade BI power without the cost or complexity.
Cons
Cons are limited for Chartio. I found no issues with the querying or visualization itself, but did run into issues clarifying errors or linking data correctly. We also struggled to auto-refresh schemas, which in an environment where schemas change constantly, means a refresh cycle every week.
