We performed a comparison between Domo and MicroStrategy based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The dashboarding itself was pretty easy. So both the front and the back end were positive in this case."
"Domo is not a difficult tool to learn. All you need to know is the SQL for the ETL part. You don't need to write much code. That's the great part. It uses legacy languages, like SQL, which is very common among developers who then don't have to go and learn Domo's own syntax. Therefore, you don't have to learn another hard language to use Domo."
"We have found securing data valuable because it allows us to provide information without identifying individuals."
"This solution allows us to change our performance metrics and tracks our goals in real-time."
"The fact that you can add any data source is valuable. The entire data handling suite they have, all the apps, etc., is pretty amazing. One of the key things, not being a techie or a data-warehouse guy, is that you can connect data sources, and do all kinds of pretty amazing things."
"The solution is highly stable."
"The ability to create custom connectors was useful because you never know, with customers, what platform they want to utilize or what data they have. It gave us a lot of flexibility in being able to bring data in from different places."
"With ETL transformations in SQL lists, you often write a lot of queries. You have to build a bunch of code for the data. With Domo, one of the pieces we have is Magic ETL. In Magic ETL, you don't need to write code. You don't need to be a specialist in SQL or any database query language."
"It is easy to use and visually very appealing. One thing that sets it apart is that it has got a great ETL tool. As compared to some of the other solutions, it is much easier to process data from other applications in MicroStrategy. That's why we prefer using it."
"Scalability is the best thing. You can really scale."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to build reports, then customize for different groups instead of having to build multiple reports. Therefore, the ability to build customization in the reports for different groups."
"The data governance leads people to trust the data that they have, and they know where to get it."
"Cube performance and easy integration with third-party tools/products, are valuable features."
"The solution's platform analytics gives us real-time analysis of how a particular user uses the report and how the systems behave."
"It keeps BI in the hands of everyone, rather than a developer or an analyst."
"It has the potential to become a great evangelist for AI and other embedded analytics."
"They could use more charts. They have had a very limited number of charts we can use. I believe, now, there are somewhere around 30 of them, but they could definitely use some more options."
"It is expensive."
"It's too early for me to say that something needs improvement, but there are times when there have been some flexibility issues with Domo... Tableau has a window function which can be integrated into a calculated field. That is missing in Domo so you have to make changes to the data set using ETL or SQL."
"I would like to see more dashboard creation options."
"There were very few cases on some of the tables, the data tables, where I wish there was an additional feature or two."
"I would like to publish a dashboard for the employees so that they can also see the performance of our organization. But that is not a feature in Domo, although it's something that Zoho provided."
"The ETL way of storing is not up to mark. You have to rely on the naming convention that you're using in Domo because there are no folder systems where you can collate all your workflows and put them into separate folders. A folder system should be there so you can easily identify how you are working. Once you want to make some changes to your ETL, then you can see the whole lineage, identifying what is there and not there."
"Their organization or client service didn't always keep up... They took on more and more clients and the processes slowed down a little bit."
"There is room for improvement on the graphs."
"I know we are not competing against Tableau, but MicroStrategy needs to step up its game on the GUI side."
"Sometimes you can do something in reports, but you cannot do the same thing in documents."
"They need to improve on distribution services. There are lack of features which were there earlier with Narrowcast, but they are not there in the distribution services."
"When we come to them with a problem, they might know more of a generalized solution, but not one targeted to our industry."
"The solution's licensing could be improved because its cost is heavy on the pockets."
"They should give proper industry-based tutorials so that one can learn it easily and implement it based on the requirements. They should give more MMP files so that we can import a whole project altogether and learn from that project."
"Consolidate the functional offering to be more concise in the front-end for web reports, dashboards, and self-service."
