Google Data Studio
- rabboRubble 10y agoAnybody have decent test data connections that can be used to play with this? Unfortunately my personal Google account is sparse and doesn't provide much meat on the bone.
- chipperyman573 10y agoFor anyone wondering what this is: "Google Data Studio (beta) turns your data into informative dashboards and reports that are easy to read, easy to share, and fully customizable. Start telling great stories with your data and make better business decisions. Create up to five free custom reports with unlimited editing and sharing with Data Studio." (From https://www.google.com/analytics/data-studio/ https://www.google.com/analytics/data-studio/) This also isn't anything new, it was released a few months ago: https://analytics.googleblog.com/2016/05/announcing-data-studio-our-free-new.html https://analytics.googleblog.com/2016/05/announcing-data-stu...
- myowncrapulence 10y agoSo.. it's google analytics? Or a client for analytics? I still don't understand. Why wouldn't this just be integrated into their existing platform?
- BucketSort 10y agoMy guess is that they are trying to make a data analytics platform for data in general, but the system integrates easily with their other data driven products.
- minimaxir 10y agoThe Data Studio appears to be explicitly a dashboard service, but for any kind of data (which puts it in competition with services like Tableau). There is some overlap with Google Analytics and its native dashboards, but that's not a bad thing.
- soared 10y agoOh god the dashboards in GA are so awful, I cringe whenever someone requests one.
- Something1234 10y agoWhy are they terrible? Do they misrepresent the information?
- golfer 10y agoSomewhat like Tableau, but in the cloud. (Tableau may have a cloud version too, I'm actually not sure)
- tajen 10y ago...in the cloud, hence it aims more at being a glue for the web. Merge datasources from anywhere, create joint reports, an incentive for everyone to open-up their data and make it accessible to Google. Sounds like a smart idea to place Google in the middle of the web.
- shawnzvinis 10y agoYes there is a Tableau Cloud – costs extra though! ;)
- tixocloud 10y agoYep, Tableau does have a cloud version too - both private and hosted.
- djd20 10y agoAlso worth checking out is http://redash.io http://redash.io for this kind of stuff - fairly new but developing quickly and very easy to hack on/add stuff. Good docs, easy to deploy and has some nice auto-update reports bits. We use that quite heavily. Its open source/free to use but also comes with paid cloudy plans.
- arikfr 10y agoThanks for mentioning Redash! (I'm the author) It's actually not that new -- I've been working on it for 3 years now :-)
- soared 10y agoThis just lets you make pretty dashboards/reports for google analytics and a bunch of other data.
- IMcD23 10y agoI find it similar to PowerBI from Microsoft.
- blahi 10y agoExcept much, much, much less capable.
- dfmooreqqq 10y agoAgreed. PowerBI has so much more functionality - and more adding every month. And with the ability to use R to make charts, it has a lot more customizability.
- pritambarhate 10y agoHopefully this the start of something very powerful.
- tibu 10y agoI think this is their visualization platform for BigQuery
- crb 10y agoThe Google Analytics team built a dashboard tool, as part of their "Google Analytics 360" release. Other teams, including Cloud, then worked with them to make it available for other data sources, including Google BigQuery and MySQL.
- arsenico 10y agoThis is a fully-fledged basic business intelligence tool, which can chart data from Google Analytics, Google Sheets and MySQL an series of other sources. It is a perfect free alternative to QlikView/Tableau for some simple data projects.
- flukus 10y agoSo it's a reporting tool? All the link does is take me to the google sign in page.
- chipperyman573 10y agoHere's a non account-locked page: https://archive.fo/vkplk https://archive.fo/vkplk
- flukus 10y agoThanks. First big issue for me, it's US only. Why on earth does something like this need to be region locked? Second is that it's hosted. That makes it a non-starter for enterprise reporting.
- aeijdenberg 10y agoProbably no reason other than that it takes time and resources to go through all the steps necessary to launch in a region (e.g. localization, legal etc), and it's more effective to get feedback on a beta product early in one region than to delay for many.
- dogma1138 10y agoEU data protection can be in play ATM since they might not have this thing complaint, same goes for other regulations. So the easy thing is to limit it to the US.
- dmoy 10y agoCompliant, as in complying with regulations?
- sdoering 10y agoExactly. Because we in the EU do not want our customer data (be it personal identifiable information or not) to be transferred to the US without consent of our customers. And rightly so. I am abbreviating massively here, but since the "Safe Harbor" things are actually a little bit more rough around data transfers. Non the less Data Studio is available in Germany, as I have already used it. I might be limited on the data sources though.
- hammock 10y agoI'm sure this is awesome. However if I were a f500 company using this (or in competition with one), I would be careful with what data I put into Google's cloud.
- kyrra 10y agoWhy? Has Google ever done anything with their cloud services that cause you to distrust them?
- prplhaz4 10y agoGenerally, the products Google offers for free involve them using the data you put into it to tailor their products and services to you. Not having examined the EULA, I don't know if this product is similar, but in general, that is the reason my legal department does not react nicely when projects try to bring google products into our ecosystem.
- webmaven 10y agoNot the PP, but though I have never come across anything substantive, there have been persistent rumors that Google M&A (and other) folks trawl through GMail to gain competitive advantages and negotiating leverage, particularly vs. startups. OTOH, the rumors are most often of the "my 2nd cousin's mother-in-law's half-brother's secretary's boyfriend's ex-husband" variety, ie. not even anonymous 1st hand claims. Anecdotally, these rumors seem to most often be spread by Enterprise SaaS salespeople.
- huangwei_chang 10y agoI feel those rumors are just incorrect from my previous experience working in Google.
- cromwellian 10y agoNot just wrong but practically impossible.
- mikeflynn 10y agoI've been staring at the MySQL connection settings deciding if I want to actually want to connect this with or not for about five minutes.
- david90 10y agoI used to sync Google analytics and other external data source to Google Spreadsheet with addons(https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-analytics/fefimfimnhjjkomigakinmjileehfopp https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-analytics/f...) and visualize the data Just played around datastudio, customization seems easier.
- lpasselin 10y agoWe use this for a client with Google adwords data. User can go to a url and see data and plots we selected for him. Decent tool, easy to use but a bit slow when I used it last month.
- gabrielrdz 10y agoWhy waste any time using it if a few years down the line they will discontinue it?
- pgodzin 10y agoFeels old seeing this on every single thread about a Google product. This isn't something you need to retool your company around and end up screwed if it's canceled. It's a nice analytics dashboard that either provides value for you for however long you decide to use it, or if it has no value to you then you just won't use it.
- blahi 10y agough, BI has one of the strongest lock-ins known to man.
- bduerst 10y agoI'd say this was true a while back because of database lock-in, but most new BI tools have a variety of connectors. I'm working with a non profit right now to migrate dashboards off of Salesforce, for example.
- ocdtrekkie 10y agoPerhaps Google should work on their poor reputation then.
- pgodzin 10y agoIt's less about their reputation and has just become a meme nowadays, particularly among techies who were the few adopters of things like Wave. I don't think Google misses on and shuts down a larger percentage of things than any other company, just seems like with everything they have going on, they try more things and inherently fail on more things. It obviously sucks for the users of those things, but I'd rather the time is spent innovating and trying many different things than spending valuable engineering time supporting projects that aren't going anywhere.
- sandGorgon 10y agoMySQL support exists,but no postgres? I notice that Google has consistently built support for MySQL in all its products...but never postgres. I don't understand why - is there a massive amount of engineering involved ?
- mrmondo 10y agoWhy you'd use MySQL rather than PostgreSQL in 2016 baffles me unless you're supporting a legacy application, I feel your pain.
- greyskull 10y agoOne interesting case with Uber: https://eng.uber.com/mysql-migration/ https://eng.uber.com/mysql-migration/
- ch4s3 10y agoMost of us aren't doing millions of writes per second though.
- minimaxir 10y agoAn extreme edge case is not a counterargument.
- debaserab2 10y agoThat's not that interesting to most of us. That's a huge edge case that I've seen used as fodder in every MySQL vs Postgres argument on HN since it's come up since that blog article was published.
- glogla 10y agoThat shows MySQL can be used as a base for building your own key-value store on. It doesn't say anything about it being reasonable (or even good) relational database.
- soared 10y agoI'd argue that the majority of people are supporting legacy rather than building something new, or something that has been built in the past couple years.
- BucketSort 10y agoSomeone please spoil my optimism about this. This seems like a game changer in reporting. What do you guys use that make this obsolete?
- abofh 10y agoSoftware and API's that will exist in 2 years :(
- soared 10y agoRequires google analytics premium which is effectively enterprise only ($100k+/yr), which I'm sad about.
- andrea_s 10y agoI have tried it ~1 month ago and was quite a bit underwhelmed - direct connectivity with Google products is nice, but the data manipulation capabilities themselves lag behind Tableau a big deal (especially when it comes to clicking around in charts and tables to slice your dataset, which is admittedly something in which Tableau excels). I do believe it is a valuable addition to the GA enterprise tier (especially for customers savvy enough to use BigQuery too), but at the moment I don't quite see it as a serious competitor to other off-the-shelf BI tools - would be very happy to be proved wrong in a few months, though.
- jebolle 10y agoHave a look at Power BI: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/ https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/
- 1_listerine_pls 10y agoI think tools like this are going to enable more government accountability. Facilitating visualization and sharing of what otherwise would be a bunch of numbers is key. In Mexico there is only one electric utility company. The price per kWh is supposed to be a function of the median monthly temperature. However, many cities are misclassified on purpose. A map showing which cities are misclassified would be really easy to do and share if it supported maps.
- pabloarteel 10y agoHey, this sounds interesting. Are you up to do this? I'd like to help. Shoot me an email to pablo (at) rocketjourney.com to discuss it further!
- 1_listerine_pls 10y agoI'm gathering the data from the official sites, so I'll probably send it tomorrow.
- smegel 10y agoGoogle Analytics 2.0
- whitegenocide 10y agoDoes this make Chart.io obsolete?
- iTunzUout 10y agoDoes this make chart.io obsolete?
- cyberferret 10y agoI think what will make chart.io obsolete more that this announcement is their (chart.io's) reluctance to put any sort of pricing plans or free tier capabilities (or even if they actually have a free tier) anywhere on their site. I get that this is the enterprise-y thing to do, but it would be a massive turn off for the sort of audience who would be evaluating it against DataStudio or PowerBI etc.
- blahi 10y agoChartio seems to be targeting OEMs.
- user5994461 10y agoChartIO (cloud) used to be $99/month for startup, then $499 later (after they increased the pricing). Not sure what it is now. By comparison. Last I talked to Looker (self hosted). They asked for $65k/year.
- gegtik 10y agoWonder how related this is to Fusion Tables https://fusiontables.google.com/ https://fusiontables.google.com/
- BucketSort 10y agoData Studio is much more focused on creating data analytics dashboards. It looks like a very visual centric tool. Thanks for the link to fusion though. I haven't heard of it. Kinda out of the googlsphere.
- ben_jones 10y agoI wonder if this will be able to extend the Google cloud console / analytics. And it's nit-picky but some of the dashboards aren't responsive in chrome, which I would normally let go but if you're gonna force us into the cult of material design you might as well get that right.
- andrewvijay 10y agoLooks pretty complex. I wonder how long it took them to pull it off.
- fuck_google 10y agoI wonder how long it will take them to pull the plug.
- thomaspryor 10y agoWe're using this a lot at Khan Academy already. Nothing that other products can't do, but the ease of use, familiar interface, and google account integration have made use of it spread through the company very quickly
- BucketSort 10y agoThat's awesome. May I ask what tool Data Studio replaced for you?
- nevi-me 10y agoTried using it yesterday, but says it's not available in my country (South Africa). I'm tired of silly restrictions like this, it immediately turned me off Data Studio. I have a Tableau licence at work, which we feel are expensive and restrictive in terms of transferring licenses around when no longer needed. Seems like a no disappointment option these days is to just invest in the d3 ecosystem as much as possible.
- brazzledazzle 10y agoIt could be as simple as them testing the waters or as complex as data storage and analysis having different requirements per country. It is annoying but may be the best they can do.
- nevi-me 10y agoI could access it from US VPN, so I don't know what the real trouble is. I can't think of anything in my country that would prevent Google from offering this service. From a billing perspective, Google already makes some money from me, and many companies, so I can't imagine that being a stumbling block.
- Klathmon 10y agoBut a company the size of Google can't just assume that there won't be anything wrong with operating in another country. They need to spend time and money on lawyers which specialize in that country's laws to look over everything and make sure. And that takes time and money, and you don't want to spend either of those when testing the waters on a new product.
- tajen 10y agoGoogle could have spread the Beta using an invitation-only scheme (Remember Gmail? That's how they controlled the load). Exclusive invitations are more inclusive than a US-centric approach. Customers get fed-up with US-centric approaches, which give us: - Different content on Netflix (Many movies in US, less than 1/4 in Poland), - Different treatment as civilians (See: NSA spying, Predators) - Movies coming 6 months later in Europe. I get it that US customers have more money, but if companies could use a specific criteria like "high-return customers" rather than a prejudice like "Only Silicon Valley customers will understand", that would be nice.
- soared 10y agoThis is almost my favorite tool, barring a couple problems. Its very easy to use, and makes very readable, pretty reports/dashboards. Sharing via a URL is nice, but I really like just exporting as a PDF and emailing them. Here is an example report that took <10 minutes to make [1]. The big problems though: 1. Beta version. You can't use this in production, send reports to clients, etc. when this tool is in beta. A client gets this report and expects all future reports to be this pretty, but Google might just kill it off or it could break. 2. Limited to 5 reports. The majority of agencies/brands can't afford the $100k+ a year for premium G suite. 5 reports per account kind of sucks, and I've had to use old google accounts to get past that limit. 3. Design. Most people simple aren't good at design, so you need a designer to create a good number of templates. Users cannot stray away from templates unless they know what they are doing. While its easy to use, its easy to make things look bad too. 4. You can pull from a Google Sheets, but updating that sheets doesn't play nicely with data studio. Side ux notes.. changing pages resets the date range which is annoying. Choosing custom colors for some charts doesn't always work. [1] http://i.imgur.com/1SCUNu1.jpg http://i.imgur.com/1SCUNu1.jpg
- JungleGymSam 10y agoHave you seen Power BI?
- bduerst 10y agoRe: #2, I don't think Data Studio is a part of GSuite, or at least it doesn't appear to be.
- dudus 10y agoIt isn't. It's part of the Analytics 360 Suite. Other products in the suite being: Google Analytics, Google Optimize, Google Surveys, Audience Center, Google Attribution and Google Tag Manager. It's a very similar set of products to the Adobe Marketing Cloud.
- rffn 10y agoHow does updating sheets used as data source not play nicely with dat studio? I would expect the report to update when the sheet changes, at least when the report is reloaded. Is this what is happening?
- JungleGymSam 10y agoAn alternate from Microsoft is Power Bi. Much more mature. https://www.powerbi.com https://www.powerbi.com
- vetinari 10y agoIt's also Windows-only.
- benbristow 10y agoNot the cloud version. To be honest though what business isn't using Windows?
- vetinari 10y agoMany SOHOs, some SMBs and Google. Enterprises do run Windows, but then, since when they were known for being bleeding edge?
- zp-j 10y agoHave you heard Office365?
- vetinari 10y agoYes, I've heard about it. And you would be surprised, how often the answer to putting your company data on other's people computers is: No.
- laurentb 10y agogood thing it's the same here for Google data studio... powerBI cloud has a free tier and does not require a subscription to try afaik: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/ https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/ in either case, you can work with spreadsheets stored on your computer, but in any case just like Google, you'd have to upload it to work with it. the pro version doesn't tie you to O365 either even though it uses the same platform
- tsumnia 10y agoHas anyone gotten YouTube Analytics to work? My authorization did nothing, and sadly that's what I'd like to generate! Edit: Nevermind, I left the page, came back and things worked(?)
- vgt 10y agoworks on top of BigQuery!
- jasonhoyt 10y agoA nicer alternative for non-US folks, or even those in the US, would be DataHero (https://datahero.com/ https://datahero.com/). Less feature rich than Tableau, but also extremely easy to use with practical graphs and data mashups out of the box. I have no connection to the app, other than I've tried dozens like it, including Google's Data Studio.
- Flemlord 10y agoWe use Klipfolio. Very nice, many chart types with many many more connectors.
- infinite8s 10y agoI always see this as a bullet point discounting other more advanced tools. How many chart types exactly do you need? As far as I can tell, most analyses that anyone needs to do on tabular data (so ignoring graph like analytics) requires maybe 6 different chart types (bar charts, line charts, scatter plots, heatmaps). Those cover basically every possible combination of numeric and categorical data axes (including color and size of elements).
- mataug 10y agoMy guess is that this was some internal tool that got cleaned up and opened to the public as a beta.
- titel 10y ago"Data Studio is not available in your country." Why is this still a thing any more? Even more this is a product of a single company so no legacy licensing scheme (like for movies for instance) can be blamed :(
- rcarmo 10y agoI'm in Portugal and can see it just fine. Where are you accessing from?
- rcarmo 10y agoBelay that, I just tried to create a report and yes, it says the same to me. No clue if it's a matter of data sovereignty, privacy, legal, technical, or billing, and the usual non-information from Google.
- jhoechtl 10y agoDid you try to create a new Rport? I am in Austria and it's telling me that it is not available in my region.
- sdoering 10y agoI am in Germany, using data from a Google 360 Account (former GA Premium) and it is just doing fine.
- tyfon 10y agoIt gives the same message in Norway as well. Maybe these countries have stricter privacy laws or something like that?
- crucialfelix 10y agoNo problem from Germany. Maybe because my analytics and user account was created in the US.
- Ftuuky 10y agoI'm in Portugal too and it doesn't work, only let's you play around with the pre-existing reports. Edit: commented before seeing your second reply, my bad.
- johnmcarthur 10y agoGoogle requires me to sign-in, anyone has an alternative link/description?
- djhworld 10y agoThis is nice, from the looks of it you can query datasources in the Google Cloud ecosystem like BigQuery etc, although it doesn't appear to support joining across datasources (could be wrong) This would probably be very useful for 'ad-hoc' queries/reports. I don't believe AWS offers anything similar right now, outside of spinning up an EMR cluster and attaching a notebook or something - but that's a lot of setup
- dgudkov 10y ago>I don't believe AWS offers anything similar right now I guess Amazon QuickSight [1] is similar to Google Data Studio. [1] https://aws.amazon.com/quicksight/ https://aws.amazon.com/quicksight/
- awestroke 10y agoNo drill-down, only explore the time axis. Worthless for any real BI
- butler14 10y agoIt's not for 'drill-down', it's for dashboards and data viz.
- hd4 10y agoJust curious, are any people in this thread already using Eclipse BIRT, Jasper Reports or Pentaho? Would you mind sharing your experiences/use-cases?
- sosha 10y agoData Studio is not available in your country. Would you like to be notified when the service is available? Sigh...
- laacz 10y agoIt's getting too common for new tools from large companies (Google, Facebook, Twitter, Apple) to be unavailable in most smaller markets. For example, Data studio told me that "Data Studio is not available in your country.". Yet, I can play with pre-existing reports.
- harryf 10y agoDrives me wild also. I assume it's because i18n / l10n takes time / money so it's easier to start with English speakers only, rather than something about controlling access to intellectual property or some form of digital colonialism. Where iPhone / Android app stores are concerned, I can understand a bit with not launching an app in a country until it's really ready to go, otherwise you just attract negative reviews. But in this case I can't see a good reason for not allowing an English-only version in all countries.
- hrktb 10y ago> Where iPhone / Android app stores are concerned, I can understand a bit with not launching an app in a country until it's really ready to go, otherwise you just attract negative reviews. As a side note, as the stores are purely virtual, it becomes very easy to use a store outside of the country you live in. For instance I kept using the same store after moving country, or I know people using the US stores for various reasons while staying outside of the US. I am actually wondering how niche of case this could be, but this makes weird cases where you're bound to switch back and forth between multiple stores just to get a single app that didn't want to get published in all the countries. In particular bank apps do that a lot, when they're already checking for account numbers etc. so they could as well publish in every country and still only allow their members to use the app.
- vsl 10y agoI don’t expect them to localize for my language (the country is mostly not relevant to l10n). By all means, English only. Perfectly understandable if an advanced feature that depends on a language (Siri) is not available (this one actually is). Or if it truly is country-specific (Siri’s restaurant reservations, traffic, public transport, ...), again, understandable. But why is Data Studio not available worldwide in English? Makes no sense. Or why is freakin Wikipedia search geo-blocked in iOS and macOS and you only get Wikipedia results or suggestions in Safari in select few countries and not anywhere else, even with English version? That my phone shuts of half its locale-indendent features the moment I cross the border from Germany makes no damn sense.
- alexrbarlow 10y agoLooks really nice, often having business wide dashboard are a pain and it's nice for everyone to be able to see sign ups etc. MySQL data source is good but I'm hoping they'll include things like prometheus or others later. For now this would work with some Segment.io or similar batch jobs
- ioda 10y agoShameless plug : We have been building http://www.reportdash.com http://www.reportdash.com with a similar target market. Datastudio appeared to be our startup killer in the beginning. But I guess, we may narrowly escape owing to the usability advantage, and the deep integration we have for datasources like adwords, fb ads etc We are working hard to give a fight. We are about to release a major update in the coming months which makes slicing and dicing data a breeze.
- mrkmcknz 10y agoHaving signed up for a trial the major downfall from your on-boarding process is that there is no test data for me to have a play with. I want to give you guys a chance but my initial evaluation needs to be with some dummy data tailored to your features so you can showcase these.
- ioda 10y agoYup. Truly understand that. Shall mail you a demo account. We are still work in progress, and many touch points are not the way we really wanted. A demo account is up there in our priority list.
- Rezo 10y agoDemo accounts are OK, but what you really want to do is avoid the empty account syndrome after signup altogether. The user is all excited to check out your product, but is intimidated by the blank slate state. Instead, the first thing the user should see is a fully functioning realistic example of your value prop, and it is critical that they can edit and mess with it to their hearts content before they start a new project of their own. Designing for the blank slate is a quite well known design pattern in mobile UX, but I can tell you from experience it works wonders for SaaS conversion as well (check profile if interested in an example).
- ioda 10y agoFully agree. I started working on it!
- wgx 10y agoWe (at D4) have been offering something similar - QueryTree lets users connect a data source (MySQL, MS SQL, AWS or PostgreSQL) and then build powerful reports and visualisations with no technical knowledge required. We even suggest JOINs that make sense automatically. http://querytreeapp.com/ http://querytreeapp.com/ I'd be really interested in feedback from people who like/dislike the Google Data Studio product.
- xchaotic 10y agoAnd that is less than 2 years after they abandoned Google refine.
- dudus 10y agoIt was openSourced as OpenRefine. https://github.com/OpenRefine/OpenRefine https://github.com/OpenRefine/OpenRefine
- shawnzvinis 10y agoThis could replace tools like Geckoboard and Tableau, which when I used last (a year ago) were a pain to configure and manage. If Google makes it easy to bring data in this could be a really nice solution to the existing reporting solutions that are poor in quality or convoluted to use.
- ljw1001 10y agoIs there any information on building connectors to new data sources? I can't find any on the site.
- dgelks 10y agoCan definitely see this becoming useful as a potential metabase replacement since we are using mysql - lack of postgres support is a weird choice though
- alexc05 10y agoLooks like they need some qa. The sample Adwords report looks really buggy on the iPad Pro (chrome)
- aaronhoffman 10y agoA site we've been working on for a while that does something similar, but with d3.js and dc.js to bring the charts to life: https://www.sizzleanalytics.com https://www.sizzleanalytics.com
- postscapes1 10y agoWhen are you offering a paid version? Love your tool but really want to have an embed function
- rpalsaxena 10y agoWhat do you think, Companies having terabytes of data may use these GA as a main tool for their analytics ? Upto what extent they may rely on these tools?
- johnhenry 10y agoI've been using silk.co for a while now. It seems quite similar in it's use case... I wonder if anyone might be able to comment on the differences?
- jordache 10y agoThe functionality is pretty limited... For a score card widget, it seems to only aggregate values, what about min/max/avg ??
- dudus 10y agoYou might want to change the aggregation type of a metric. You can also duplicate a metric on the data source and give it a different aggregation type. From: https://support.google.com/360suite/datastudio/answer/6402048?hl=en#change_a_metrics_aggregation https://support.google.com/360suite/datastudio/answer/640204...
- deleted 10y ago[deleted]
- bsg75 10y agoIts surprising and disappointing that as a Google product you have to contact a sales rep for pricing. For a company like Google, who is known to make contact with actual support people difficult, making pricing of all things a sales interaction is off-putting.
- nkw 10y agoFor me I continue to be somewhat excited when I see Google has an actual human interacting with a customer/user even if it is in a sales role.
- blahi 10y agoPricing is around $15/user. 200 users minimum. Yeah, your read that right.
- bsg75 10y agoDid you find that on the Data Studio site? If so, share the link?
- cpsempek 10y agoTheir colors are off in the AdWords example dashboard. The donut charts in the bottom right, yellow is mobile phones in the chart, but the mobile phone icon is blue. The other chart-icon colors are similarly off.
- ommunist 10y agoIs this beta for US-based hosts only at the moment?
- user5994461 10y agoLet's get straight to the point. How does it compare against ChartIO (SaaS)? https://vimeo.com/149352971 https://vimeo.com/149352971 And how does it compare against Looker (self hosted)? https://techcrunch.com/2016/01/14/looker-analytics-platform-scores-48-million-led-by-kleiner-perkins/ https://techcrunch.com/2016/01/14/looker-analytics-platform-... By the way. Those two are the main players if you want state of the art data visualization ;)
