What do you like best about Geckoboard?

Great design .. It's really easy to configure the settings. Its intergrated with 3rd party applications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Geckoboard?

what I have found least helpful is that it doesn't offer any notifications. It also isn't meant to be used alone. You have to use the intergrated websites to get the most out of this Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Geckoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?

Its perfectly designed for my small business needs. I am used it through the trial period. but did not continue after the trial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Geckoboard?

Ease of use, cost, integration availability, flexibility and feature set. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Geckoboard?

Some integrations missing. Some duplication without obvious explanation as to why both exist and which one you should be using (nothing that a bit of playing around can't solve). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Geckoboard:

Trial the platform and you'll be surprised at it's capability Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Geckoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm using it as a Contact Centre Wallboard but I'm going beyond the norm by connecting the team more to the business outcomes such as total orders and revenue (shopify), web traffic and site conversion (google analytics) etc etc. We're then using some zap's with typeform and google sheets to pull out complaint information as it comes through the customer access points. I'm no techy but was able to achieve without any digital product support. Any investors coming in to see how we operate are constantly blown away by how we're using it and every single one to date has noted down the name.... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Geckoboard?

The dashbiards are extremely flexible and amazingly smooth-looking - easily the best I have seen on any reporting tool! The dashboards themselves can be extremely customized (in terms of their size, layout, etc) and provide access to all sorts of data from numerous integration platforms in the market Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Geckoboard?

Not all integration platforms offer equal flexibility - with some tools offering a lot more comprehensive data than the others. Furthermore, it would also be very helpful if it was possible to report on any personalized data from the tools as opposed to simply the few options provided by the tool. Geckoboard also offers fairly limited set of integrations considering the near infinite number of tools out in the market. Finally, it is important to note that Geckoboard can only be used to display statistics from various tools - it does not offer any analytical, prediction or forecasting options thus, severely limiting the potential of the tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Geckoboard:

Make sure Geckoboard supports the platforms that you would like to gather data from. Also, make sure the specific data fields that you would like to display from the platforms can actually be shown by Geckoboard because if Geckoboard doesn't natively support the data fields you'd like to display then it'll be very difficult to capture live data from those fields Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Geckoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a single tool that can display data from a number of tools used by our organization and showcase them based on specific criteria (such as leads generated in last month, revenue generated by individual users and so on). We would've preferred to also do some in-depth analysis of the statistics but unfortunately Geckoboard does not provide that option. Nonetheless, Geckoboard became a one stop shop to display the overall company performance (plus individual sales performance) over given time periods Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to read as it has amazing dashboard views, that one can also share with stakeholders and extend and shrink as needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Geckoboard?

Integrating is not as user-friendly as one would like, it does take slow to load and refresh, and there are a couple of times when parts of the dashboard views are a bit buggy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Geckoboard:

Great for lite data inputs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Geckoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?

Visibility into mission-critical data in an easy to consume format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
