Advantages 👍
- - No-nonsense interface: I logged in and reached my first answer within five minutes, without reading any manual.
- - Conversational queries work: Phrases like “show me the top three regions by revenue change” produced exactly the view I expected.
- - Speed under load: Even a 750,000-row table came back with results in under ten seconds, which saved a good slice of my morning.
- - Handy sharing: Clients accessed a live link and drilled into the numbers without needing an account, something a rival platform failed to provide.
- - Transparent formula panel: Every chart reveals the SQL or formula behind it, making sign-off with finance teams far easier.
Drawbacks 👎
- - Limited integrations right now
- - Custom branding is basic
- - Mobile view feels cramped
- - Alert rules are rigid
- - Price jump after the starter tier

What we discovered during testing
Advantages
- No-nonsense interface: I logged in and reached my first answer within five minutes, without reading any manual.
- Conversational queries work: Phrases like “show me the top three regions by revenue change” produced exactly the view I expected.
- Speed under load: Even a 750,000-row table came back with results in under ten seconds, which saved a good slice of my morning.

- Transparent formula panel: Every chart reveals the SQL or formula behind it, making sign-off with finance teams far easier.
Drawbacks
- Limited integrations right now: I could hook up Google Sheets and Postgres, yet my Snowflake instance had to stay on the sidelines.
- Custom branding is basic: Logo upload works, colours are fixed to a single palette, which left our marketing team asking for more.
- Mobile view feels cramped: On a phone screen the side panel covers half the chart, forcing sideways scrolling.
- Alert rules are rigid: Threshold notifications fire only on whole numbers; percentage-based triggers would make them far more usable.
- Price jump after the starter tier: Moving from the free plan to the next level triples the monthly cost, a sticking point for smaller clients.
