What I enjoy the most about this tool is how the dashboard is constructed. It's put together in a logical sequence of how you would most likely use the tool. Just like someone searching the web, you start with a broad term to see what results you get....

All of the estimates and analytics. I've plugged in multiple clients to this tool and it's definitely not accurate.
