Looker Reviews

Looker is used in my organization for cloud data analysis and visualization, allowing us to explore, visualize, and understand our data more efficiently. One thing I like about this platform is the ability it has to integrate with a wide variety of data sources, including relational databases, data warehouses, and other cloud data warehouses; it has allowed us to unify data and perform analysis in one place, this has helped improve efficiency and business decision making time. Looker is flexible and customizable; it is possible to adapt it to the organization's specific needs, allowing us to create our data models and ways to visualize data, such as dynamic tables, graphs and custom dashboards.

We like that Looker is a platform that has high potential tools when you want to achieve the correct management and analysis of your data in a comfortable, dynamic and strategic way; this platform gives you a high level of robustness, reliability and scalability in all projects that are proposed to implement. It has pretty solid data analysis reports that should always be considered when making decisions. Therefore there are a large number of internal management of the organization that the Looker platform ends up automating in a certain way, maybe not 100 percent. Still, one thing is sure; Looker will always make your work life more harmonious and straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Looker allows me to use different data sources, and I don't need to know each specific SQL syntax. I don't need to know DAX. I am using git and I also don't need to know git CLI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Do not get into the business of enabling everyone in your company to have the ability to create their own ad-hoc visuals and set of dimensions and measures; you will truly regret the chaos that comes with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This software RARELY works, it's completely glitchy. I use it, well, I attempt to use it, daily. But I continuously receive the No Date to Report message. It completely hinders my job as I need the data from the reporting. Seriously, it is glitchy every single day.

It's very slow, it takes too long to run any query, and the support is non-existing.

We're currently using Looker to peer into our own organization's internal data which is contained in our data warehouse. Looker is now used by everyone within our company in order to have operational insights across operations, finance, sales... all the way to the C-suite. We've been very impressed.
It's on-demand and in the cloud, we don't have to mess with AMIs or scaling issues Looker's data domain creating tool is better than anything we've seen LookML, Looker's specialized language is incredibly extensible and allows us to connect and visualize almost any data type

Looker was being used by the entire organization. We also wanted to use Looker externally for our merchant dashboards, but that option turned out to be too expensive. We focused more on using it internally by our sales, finance, marketing, and engineering teams to build dashboards that we could use for internal analytics.
Very simple tasks are very complicated in Looker. It is complicated for users to be able to create their own calculation, as these measures have to be added to the data model. Very simple calculations are complicated to add to the data model.

We started using Looker about two years ago. The marketing department brought it on as a better way of analyzing data that was housed in disparate systems. Sales data in NetSuite. Call data in Cisco. Website traffic data in Google Analytics. Looker was brought on to consolidate the data under one roof and allow us to analyze and report on the data in a more centralized way.
Difficult to display data in custom formats. Data needs to join on a single key instead of just showing what you want. Overly complex with difficult learning curve.

Looker is used as our main data warehouse and analytics system within our business. It is used across the entire organization and by every department. The business has a lot of data in a lot of different places so we feed a lot of that data into Looker to do segmentation, analysis and reporting throughout the entire business.

Looker is a game changing tool insofar as it provides a 21st century approach to data tooling that massively amplifies how organisations can get access to, explore and power applications through data without making sacrifices from an accuracy perspective. Looker's company culture is fantastic and the focus on customer support really helps to extent the impact of the product itself.

Looker allows you to get up and running quickly with it's prototyping capability and LookML functionality. It makes it easy for our enterprise data team to get data in front of the customer quickly while then going behind the scenes and adding it to our data warehouse. It's ease of use and value for the money allows it to meet our needs as our corporate BI/analytics tool!

Since its introduction, Looker has proven to be a crucial tool for our business. By enabling us to organise and construct dashboards to handle data from several sources in one location, it has significantly reduced the amount of time and effort we have to expend. It now has a considerable impact on decision-making that is BI driven, so far.

We recently started using Looker and realized that our life would have been much better if we had come to know about this tool earlier. It helps you save time since you can get all the data in a single place. Although, it is not so easy to create reports. You will need to learn using the tool.

The most cutting-edge method for creating data experiences and products is called Looker. From a user perspective, Looker is incredibly simple to use. Clear filters let you access data that I need to execute my job on a daily basis, especially when I'm retrieving client health scores.
