Opiniones de Looker

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

Requiere cierto conocimientos de TI para su uso

Es un producto que inmediatamente te permite ver los resultados de lo que estás aprendiendo. Intuitivo en las construcción y personalización de los gráficos y filtros. Son muchas las tipologías de fuentes de datos que pueden alimentar tus gráficos. Es una herramienta que empodera.

Objetivamente no he detectado ningún punto negativo. Si tengo que evidenciar un deseo, me gustaría tener un más amplio catalogo de gráficos.

Es una de las mejores herramientas para obtener informes con múltiples datos. Ofrece reportes de todo tipo y es completa.

Cuando haces combinaciones entre fuentes (como por ejemplo google ads - analytics) a veces se bloquea un poco.

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.

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

Looker has significant power with enterprise capabilities enabling us to garner insights and analytics throughout a very complex business. Looker has great capabilities around triggers which is essential for a business like ours handling volume that can vary.

It is not the most user friendly tool and can have performance issues around loading. There are definitely other BI tools that have prioritised UX which helps drive data literacy across our business. With Looker, we've struggled to get non-data people into the tool to really use it as they find it hard to use without significant training.

It’s a good option if you want to do dashboards connected to google sheets. Also a good alternative to PowerBi

They can ad some more personalizations for the dashboards

My company uses Looker as a BI tool internally and externally. The interface allows us to easily train customers and colleagues on how to use and manipulate the data, even if a user does not have any SQL experience. Finalized dashboards and looks provide us with visually appealing metrics.

There are some limitations to custom calculations/ dimensions that can trip our users up when trying to manipulate data on their own. The support forums do not always offer solutions or workarounds for these limitations, so it must ultimately go upstream to the point where development changes need to be made.

I like that the tool is easy to use even for non-technical members and does a great job analyzing complex data. The onboarding process is easy.

The only downside is that at times the performance is slow and the loading time is sometimes long

It’s super easy to maintain and update reports - particularly if using some of the direct integrations for Google products (eg Google ads). Also great to be able to pull in data from attribution tools like Ruler Analytics too.

Not necessarily a ‘con’ as such, but your dashboards look as good as you are a designer; I’ve seen some incredible dashboards built by colleagues and peers and also seen some truly terrible ones; the flexibility of the tool means you do need to have a basic grasp of data analysis and visualisation.

I love the simple easy to use interface thanks to the drag and drop feature which makes it easy to analyze data

The cost is pricy compared to other alternatives doing the same task

Connecting different sources or importing data is very easy and you are sure that data is always up to date. Another important feature for me is that you can share these reports with other or you can export them.

Creating a dashboard with all you need can be a little complicated for the first time.

I like that the tool is easy to use even for non technical members which help visualize our organization data.

Compared to other alternatives it lacks flexibility

Looker has an impressive data modeling capabilities which enable the user to create and manage data models effortlessly, empowering its users to derive valuable insights from even the most complex datasets.

While Looker's interface may be user-friendly, unlocking its complete potential may require some learning for new users, particularly to those who are not well-versed in data modeling and analytics principles.

The most I like that you can import data from different sources. Making charts and graphs from all data you have allows you to do very accurate prediction on the business. Sharing the reports with different colleagues from other departments is easy and important.

Is a little complicated until you come to the final dashboard design, too many options (might be only me).

It has phenomenal data exploration features that enable us to maximize our data potential through indepth insights. I appreciate its flexible customization options that help us to visualize data in line with our company requirements.

Running complex queries on this tool affects system performance occasionally which is not ideal.

Google Looker is one of the best data-visualizing tools, it is easy to use, cheap, and flexible. I like the ready-to-use templates that Looker provides. Also, Looker can deal with complex reports and can show KPIs on multiple dimensions.

Google Looker is a great tool and beneficial for any business type, it is all about its advantages, and in my opinion it does not have any single problem or a disadvantage.

Easier to start with than other visualization tools.

Some charts take long to load. The learning curve, even if shorter than with other tools, is still not insignificant.

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.

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.

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.

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

Looker Studio can connect a wide variety of data sources and create highly interactive dashboards and reports.

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

Its a really powerful reporting software for free

It doesn't work well will large amounts of data
