Create right strategies and make data driven decisions with ThoughtSpot
What do you like best about the product?
ThoughtSpot helped us to analyze the performance of our different campaigns, create reports and make better decisions on calculated data points. The creation of interactive reports is super easy which comes in handy while going to a meeting. It is used by certain sets of departments of our organization such as technical, consultants, or marketing.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you are using it for the first time, then it can be a little complicated to use.
Structuring of the database can be difficult sometimes, therefore better documentation for that is needed
Assigning user access and roles can be a little tricky.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ThoughtSpot is well suited in scenarios where you want to make decisions based on the collected data, create reports, and plan future budgets and forecasts. It is a perfect fit for the finance and sales departments. It is not well-suited for front office departments where they are not directly involved with these kinds of scenarios and decisions.

Lofty marketing messages that product can't deliver
What do you like best about the product?
The marketing messages and the promise of being able to search for insights than have to use dashboards or clicks.
What do you dislike about the product?
- Horrible sales process. Cookie-cutter demos, they were just lazy not to spend any effort to create a demo for what was relevant for us i.e. how would a sales funnel look like, or product usage trends.
- Sales team reminded us of car-salesmen constantly trying to tell how great their product was without any empathy for customer needs or goals
- Incompetent customer success team - doesn't have basic understanding of datawarehouses, data models, only focuses on showing features in the tool.
- We are more than 6 months into our one-year contract, and have created zero pinboards, zero adoption in the company
- Cloud edition is a joke, half the features don't work and are half baked. Basic features like editing/formatting fields seem too hard to use.
- Buy this tool at your own peril, if you have an army of BI developers that can baby sit this retarded product.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The basic problem is getting to use Thoughtspot. We haven't been able to use the damn product in 6 months.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't fall for their marketing messages. Run a rigorous POC where you have them show exactly what you want done. Don't settle for their cookie-cutter demo (who knows if all of it is hard-coded)
My experience of Using Thoughtspot, great software and easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Thoughtspot helps to show the business insights in seconds. it allows quick and simple visualization of data. it is easy to use and has a good user interface and the search experience is very good. In my organization, we use ThoughtSpot to create management dashboards and reports. Fast - never have to wait a long time for data to load. ThoughtSpot also helps us to closely track project hours on a weekly basis.
What do you dislike about the product?
it still requires some more docs on how to filter data appropriately
Debugging data loading scripts before using them (Simulation)
Visualization options and graphic colors can be improved

Thoughtspot offers a simple yet robust toolset for searching your data
What do you like best about the product?
NLS is easily the best part of the system as it allows non-technical personnel to mine their data without knowledge of SQL or other querying language.
What do you dislike about the product?
Often Thoughtspot will suggest charts and visualizations that are not what I want, and even after modifying from the default after making a slight tweak to the search terms, the visualization will revert to the originally suggested chart (even if the change didn't invalidate the previous chart i.e., removing measures or attributes required for the chart)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to offer our customers a simple way to generate reports and derive insights from their data. This goal has been realized through full integration of the Thoughtspot offering and has given our customers precisely this.
A system that really helps!
What do you like best about the product?
ThoughtSpot allows quick and simple visualization of complex data in a way that would have previously taken significant time to do in excel. This has saved me significant amounts of time in my day-to-day role, allowing me to focus on taking that information and making informed decisions.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't much to dislike about the system, but as with all new technology, there is a bit of a learning curve, and it can take some time to ensure that the data you put into the system is set up in a way to get the best results.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ad-hoc analysis of complex data in excel used to take significant amounts of time; ThoughtSpot has allowed this analysis to be done in a significantly quicker and more efficient way - saving time and money.
Great way to get additional insights!
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of creating reports based on the metrics you're looking for. Not only that, but once you have a report template, you can easily add new columns to your report based on your KPI's.
I like how you can share your pinboard with other members of the company, so you're not having to re-create the wheel every time a different user wants the same report.
I like how you can add visual graphs to the pinboard and it's not just the data, but I also like that you can export the data into excel so you or your customer can manipulate the data to achieve the look and feel you're looking for.

What do you dislike about the product?
There's not really anything that I don't like. In fact, I wish I had more access to the backend features (and not just our engineering team), so I could create even more reports.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're able to solve a lot. We can pull a full list of our content, customer content consumption, insights on individual courses, etc.

They have great support, and overall, it's a great tool.
Good software experience, good customer service

Business User of ThoughtSpot for Data Analysis

The speed of data queries and visuals updating on the fly

Although they sell themselves as the Google of data analysis, it still requires some learning on how to filter data appropriately
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Claims analysis to identify any trends overtime
NLP BASED BI TOOL AT ITS EARLIER STAGE
What do you like best about the product?
Plethora of key words available to search slice and dice data for business analysis and decision making on the spot for normal users, it is able to understand the layman language easily and eliminates the adhoc bi analysis
What do you dislike about the product?
Keywords can still be improved sometimes we need to use the keywords that are already available in the tool or it may struggle to understand the input keywords used by business users, concentrated on sales-related data, still in its earlier stage need improvement, advanced charts and analysis cannot be accomplished.
Struggles to accomplish Custom Calculations specific to business requirements.
Struggles to accomplish Custom Calculations specific to business requirements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we are trying to make use of ad-hoc analysis and provide flexibility for the users to choose the level of analysis to be performed (without going through the hassle of change required for base reports). This tool will be used as a secondary Report analysis module.
Simple Search and AI analytics
What do you like best about the product?
A self-service, user-friendly platform that doesn't need an analyst to get answers from business data, and the AI aspect answers questions I would not have thought to ask. There are managed service options where I could start small and grow rather than having to go for the enterprise option from the start.
What do you dislike about the product?
As it's still new to the market compared to other analytics solutions, some functions need further development; however, that's part of evolving.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Instant search enables users to answer question after question without delay
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Keep an open mind when considering ThoughtSpot as Assimil8 offer a tiered approach starting at a lower entry point than enterprise so that you can start small and grow as your use case increases
