What truly stands out for me with Looker Studio is its user-friendly interface and the seamless integration with Google connectors. This pre-built connection to link your data from Google Sheets to the platform simplifies the process significantly. Once the data is linked, creating customized dashboards featuring a variety of graphs is a breeze, allowing you to tailor them to your company's color scheme and preferences

Looker Studio makes this process remarkably straightforward, empowering users to build complex models with ease. This flexibility ensures that you can derive insights that are truly relevant to your organization.

Nachteile

The flexibility and customization options in Looker Studio can be both a strength and a weakness. While it allows for tailored analytics solutions, it can also be complex to set up intricate data models and dashboards, requiring a higher level of technical expertise.

Vorteile

Very powerful tool on the backend side with a great semantic layer which allows you you easily navigate through data and make explores.

Nachteile

Lack of dashboard customization options makes the look stiff and takes away from a user experience that could have been.

Vorteile

I love how quickly you can set up advanced charts with it without using code. Being able to create dashboards from scratch in a short amount of time is a huge plus for us as we usually deal with unique instances that require new bits of data.

Nachteile

It takes forever to load when you're running larger queries. We had to split some views two or three times to be able to have it work properly

You dont need technical expertise to use Looker studio. Only a little background information and a little hands on make you easily use the analytics. Really great for KPI measurement as well.

Nachteile

The changes in the interfaces and modeling are rapid and it is revamped ocassionaly.

Vorteile

The ability to really deep dive into data and match multiple data sets together to find trend lines.Also the platform being compatible with so many datasets!

Nachteile

It's not the easiest tool to grasp when you first start using it. The ability to view and filter reports from the highest level down to deep niche data should be simplified.

Vorteile

Looker is your tool if you're looking for a tool that allows you to create detailed dashboards while being user-friendly, visually attractive, and easy to use. Everything you need when it comes to data, Looker has a solution that will allow you to build great databases and dashboards that will help all business units plan, strategize, and operationalize. There's no better tool in the market.

Nachteile

Looker is still growing and that means he still doesn’t have the capacity to sync with every tool on the market. So, my only least-liked topic about it will be that.

Vorteile

Looker allows marketers to create and track custom metrics and specific KPIs, which is extremely useful for evaluating and measuring the success of our initiatives. I can get a detailed view of the performance of our strategies in real-time thanks to its advanced analytical capabilities.Looker's capabilities extend beyond general analysis to include specific functionality for digital marketing. I can analyze SEO and keyword data, identify relevant trends, and evaluate the performance of specific keywords. This data enables me to fine-tune our optimization strategies and increase our visibility in search engines.

Nachteile

When technical issues, such as reporting issues or data visualization issues, arise, our ability to make informed decisions and respond quickly is jeopardized. Instead of addressing problems and finding solutions directly, we must pause our activities and wait for IT or technical support to intervene and resolve the issues.These delays can have a significant impact on our daily operations' agility. Decisions based on quick, up-to-date analysis are critical in digital marketing, where trends change quickly, and adaptability is critical to success. Delays in resolving technical issues may impair our ability to capitalize on opportunities, adjust strategies, or fix bugs in real-time.

Vorteile

This product has been the primary data analytics and business planning base in the enterprise. It provides real-time insights that gives each department power to plan and manage risks that may arise. It is easy to use and integrate with other data management models.

Nachteile

The set features have been working effectively based on company targets in data governance.

Vorteile

Reports and dashboards are extremely simple to set up with Looker. It removed our need to ask for data all the time because it doesn't require much technical knowledge to be able to learn how to use it and we can all quickly fetch and chart most data with it on our own.

Nachteile

The support team is close to nonexistent and there aren't many support resources that explain how to do complex tasks with it.

Vorteile

Ottima piattaforma per la creazione di dashboard e visualizzazione dei dati da reportare.

Nachteile

Poco diffusa e poco raccomandata per presentazione dei report dati.

Vorteile

Es muy fácil de usar y su organización por semántica resulta muy útil para leer datos complejos, sobre todo a la hora de trabajar en desarrollo web o de apps

Nachteile

Requiere cierto conocimientos de TI para su uso

Vorteile

Nachteile

Looker Studio is a great business inteeligence tool however, it still have room for improvement, especially for complex visualizations.

Vorteile

It is a free which enable to share reports quickly

Nachteile

I recommend it ,it is the best for sharing reports

Vorteile

Ottimo per banche dati molto complesse. E' l'anello di congiunzione - da fruitore finale - tra sistemi di dashboard più complessi e la facilità di creare una pivot table. E' possibile customizzare inserendo diversi campi e diversi filtri, da parte del cliente finale, in maniera molto autonoma. E' quindi possibile utilizzare e incrociare dati anche da diverse fonti, tra varie organizzazioni aziendali, senza il coinvolgimento di un BI per ogni operazione.

Nachteile

Spesso è molto lento a caricare, immagino dipenda dal set dei dati inseriti - certo, se la velocità non segue le possibilità di customizzazione, il tool perde un asset fondamentale. La curva di apprendimento iniziale è molto ripida, proprio per le funzionalità e la capacità di incrociare diversi input - la documentazione spesso non è all'altezza del tool, in riferimento a queso.

Vorteile

O Looker (antigo datastudio) permite integramos as nossas bases de dados e visualizar o melhor direcionamento da equipe

Nachteile

They can ad some more personalizations for the dashboards

Vorteile

Its a really powerful reporting software for free

Nachteile

It doesn't work well will large amounts of data

Vorteile

La flexibilité de Looker et sa capacité à se connecter à plusieurs sources de données en font un choix idéal pour centraliser et harmoniser nos informations marketing. Son interface conviviale et ses fonctionnalités de collaboration facilitent le partage des données et la communication entre nos différentes équipes

Nachteile

Une vitesse de traitement des données ralentie par des ensembles de données qui peuvent être volumineux

Vorteile

Data visualization, analytical tool and data collection methods are effective tools which this platform provides.

Nachteile

As far as my user experiences' concerned, I have not faced any difficulty or using disability with regard to my use case.

Vorteile

Es fácil de usar y la interacción con el usuario permite el diseño de elementos visuales que son atractivos y fáciles de leer e interpretar, de forma clara y oportuna

Nachteile

En un inicio la comprensión para el desarrollo de los elementos que han de mostrarse en los tableros resulta un poco revoltoso, por lo que debes tener preferentemente un mapeo previo para ubicar las variables que se requieren utilizar y las fuentes de donde se obtendrá la información

Vorteile

Easy to use, Creates stunning graphs on complex data, fully customizable, low-price product, can't beat it.

Nachteile

No cons whatsoever. Easily integrated and we learned how to use this product quickly.

Vorteile

First and foremost, the most important feature of Looker is, it is cloud based BI tool which can be accessed remotely and easy to work unless like other tools where it requires to be installed in the PC.It has clean and simple UI which is very to build dashboards and reports.Lookml option provides benefit of flexibility in code which in turn help to create own metrics and create calculations. This helps for the marketer or developer to have the control of the metrics Data modelling is very easy to create and Looker has the capacity to sync with various connectors to access the data from other sources, which solves the use case of having 3rd party connectors.

Nachteile

The new interface of swapping between read-only and developer is not that great. The older version was better as compared to the new one. Customer support is gone from good to bad. When I had queries , customer support team could not help as they themselves were not aware of the tool and also they share articles which are available with google search to diagnose.The codes should have an option to export to PDF.

Vorteile

It is a great delight to strengthen my data analysis system. Scheduling reports is another great way to avoid acting as a middleman between various clients in my opinion. Flexibility, durability, the LookML Semantic layer, dependability, scalability, and the set of tools for modifying data experiences. Very versatile when it comes to writing code and showing tiles; the greatest aspect is the dynamic nature of the results presentation, which makes it easier to examine results while on the go.

Nachteile

There are fewer things that can be done at the tile level, which limits functionality. Such dynamicness is required for a more thorough dashboarding experience. Less restrictions on things, in my opinion, would allow me to dream a little greater. Additionally, the forecasting function may be improved. Just a bit more conviction in this amazing product would do.

Vorteile

It allows several users to use and perform actions on the same amount of data available without affecting each others work. Enables us in creating compelling dashboards, meaningful reports with its set of internal tools, flexibility with its customization of the platform as per user's liking, keeping the data safe that is sensitive to the business with advanced encryption, user access control.

Nachteile

A little complex on the integration part with other system softwares is what I noticed as a struggle in my work environment. Also some issues with the buffer, when the command is run again and again after creating the reports. When a report's format changes, my scheduled reports disappear and filters aren't operating correctly.

Vorteile

It's a great data exploration tool for users who normally would get anxious when given a large dataset in something like Excel. It's generally simple to use and there can be unlimited Viewers (users at the lowest permissions level) through the enterprise product. Data Visualization is essentially done for you and Exploers (users at the second level of permissions) can build new visualizations & turn them into interactive dashboards.

On the Looker platform, Explorers can locate a view (called an Explore) and then are given a list of dimensions and measures they can pull into a table. Users can create new dimensions using calculated fields and then save their views so any users with Viewer permissions (and up) can see what was put together.

Nachteile

With simplicity comes lack of flexibility. More skilled data analysts will want more flexibility than Looker can provide but at the same time you need to have highly skilled Data Analysts to be the Developers (high level of permissions) to set up the data so that less skilled analysts (the users who benefit from Looker most) who are Explorers don't build views that grossly misrepresent the data.

My biggest pet peeve with this software as an Explorer is that you cannot make calculations on the base data...only the data that you pull into your table (called table calculations). That is a major feature that Tableau has that Looker does not have at the Explorer permission level. Of course developers can use LookML (Lookers data language) to create a new column...but a Developer license is more expensive and creating the fields take time and it's something you constantly will need.

Vorteile

Un outil robuste pour supporter de nombreux dashboards

Nachteile

Nécessite des compétences particulières comme tout standard marché

Vorteile

I had the occasion to work with this tool to visualize some data and it was easy, my reports were interactive !!

Nachteile

Can be a bit hard to manage at 1st sight but in the end it is ok

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen

Vorteile

Looker is incredibly easy to use for a casual user, which most of our users are. As soon as your email is activated, you have access to the product and new users need very little direction to start getting value out of it.

Nachteile

Relative to other BI tools, the advanced charting functionality is somewhat limited, but frankly that's not the main reason we bought Looker. Data scientists can use another tool of their choice, we have Looker for people who aren't data scientists.

Vorteile

Customization is one of the best parts of looker. Having the ability to fit the data to the required details through filters is handy. You can add/remove or filter data as you wish. The platform also has multiple types of visualizing and also the option to downloading the data in various forms.

Nachteile

The platform is great, but in sometimes, during high traffic, the process is prolonged. It takes forever to load a look or dashboard. Also, the learning curve is a bit tough at the start but gets better once you get the grip.

Vorteile

I have been using Looker from quite a while and it allows you to integrate Google sheet, Google Analytics, Google Ads, Facebook and other channel and bring data to a single platform for analysis.

Nachteile

Nothing much. I only found some customization issues with creating two dimensions.

Vorteile

I love the customization of Looker, and that you can put large amounts of data into the hands of anyone -- in a way that makes sense [to them]!
While their product is great, it speaks volumes to the team. It's an amazing group of people that continue to receive feedback from their customers and iterate time and time again on their product. They truly care about data and their customers, and they want to empower them the best they can.

Nachteile

When modeling views, I wish you could define better filters for measures but it's limited. There are workarounds, meaning modeling out several additional dimensions to arrive at the measure you need to pull regularly, but it'd be much more efficient to allow for measures to be more nuanced.

Large dashboards (with 25+ tiles) can take awhile to load, which is understandable. Once their "merge results" feature is fully rolled out and we're able to save them as new tiles or looks, it should help resolve the need for so many tiles.

Neither of these two things are a big deal, and I wouldn't let this deter you from considering this software.

Vorteile

What I like most about this software is it's not really overwhelming to use. After a bit of warming up with the functions and options available, you will begin enjoying creatively visualizing your data.

Nachteile

I haven't found a flaw in this software. So far it meets my reporting needs and I'm really satisfied!

Vorteile

Looker is very user friendly and the support is very knowledgeable and helpful. It is also easy to understand and operate.

Nachteile

Is has small error and it lag sometime especially if you user a larger data sets so it usually takes time to use it properly.

Vorteile

Modeling platform which allows the me to codify data visualization using a proprietary modeling language.
The self-service visualization tools that allows end users to access the benefits of data analysis.
Looker has one of the best user interface on market very easy to use and in my organisation it very useful because it saves time and costs of training.

Nachteile

Integration with my business has not been difficult at all but the difficulty came from the product's need for a lot of processing power and its use of a lot of RAM.

Warum Looker gewählt wurde

Zuvor genutzte Software

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Looker

Vorteile

I like the most in Looker is that it allows me to visualize my data analysis and to explore and to understand my data efficiently. Also this platform has a wide variety of data sources. Aside from this it is also flexible and customizable and also allows me to make tables and graph for my data. It is also user friendly.

Nachteile

The most cons that I can say is that it is a quite expensive but the prize is worth it for it's uses and purpose.

Vorteile

Looker's user-friendly interface made it easy for us explore and use. It has good drag-and-drop features , which made it easy for us to create dashboards and reports. Looker's data modeling capabilities enabled us to create and manage data models that can be used across multiple data sources. This provided us a unified view of data and made it easy for us to analyze and explore. It has the ability to add custom visualizations and integrations. we also were able to share reports and dashboards with business users , making it easy to collaborate on data analysis and insights.

Nachteile

Looker's data source support is limited. We require significant training to fully utilize its features and functionalities. Its customization capabilities are limited compared to other BI platforms.

Vorteile

Gratuit, fonctionne avec énormément de sources de données, et très simples à utiliser (intuitif). Sans être expert en analytics, il est possible de faire des dashboards assez jolis très simplement.

Nachteile

Le connecteur GA4 dispose d'un système de quota qui empêche l'utilisation avec des sites à fort trafic.

Vorteile

Provisioning security allows us to control the user experience (and only show users things they would actually care about). This makes a dashboard or data product rollout far smoother. Additionally, the customer support (especially through the chat interface) is absolutely fantastic. Because Looker creates a custom URL for each explore you're working on, you can share with Customer Support your exact problem and work together to find a solution.

Nachteile

Looker Sales told us beforehand that it "writes the most performant SQL possible." I have not found this to be the case, as it often casts and does a few other things (I suspect to make it runnable no matter how you've set up your data). There are some limitations on the visualizations, etc., but Looker Customer Service has been super responsive when those come up.

Vorteile

Looker allows companies to create all business intelligence initiatives using comprehensive data sorting and analysis features, from ideation to visualization. The platform is professional, easy to use, and integrates with many other programs, making data entry and export a breeze. Looker enables non-technical managers to use reports and dashboards to explore, discover, and view data dynamically. It also stores all data in the cloud, allowing the members to work together at any time and get the best results.

Nachteile

Looker is a great program that efficiently produces the best analytics, and with proper training, all members will complete tasks as required.
