What differentiates Looker from other similar products?

The main feature that differentiates Looker from other Business Intelligence tools is its LookML modeling layer. It assists in analyzing the reporting and makes it consistent to unify the data-metrics link. It further aids all the workers to work through a single source. Moreover, it keeps its focus on database analysis without extracting data.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My favorite aspect about this Looker is its centralized data modeling layer LookML. This aspect ensures the functioning of every worker from a single source to keep the consistency in the data. This helps sort out the issues that are normally generated due to the formation of reports from the data handled by different teams in different ways. Its ability to learn easily and deal with live data makes it preferable for me.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It is very user-friendly software and easy to learn. Although it is filled with all the latest features it comes with complete guidance regarding their working. Its customer service is very efficient in assisting its users in real time. So for me, there is nothing to dislike about it.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It is a good to go for all those having issues with business intelligence. To utilize its features fully, one should learn some basic technical skills. By getting an initial understanding, data analysts can fully leverage Looker. All the given policies and tutorials help in insight into its functioning.
