There is nothing that I dislike about Knowi. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bunch of new features every week/2 week. They are very committed to listening to the customer and implementing recommended changes. You can use it as a reporting tool and as an ETL tool. The 9QL language provides a new way to handle nested data or transform data pretty simply. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Rarely the interface does not work properly i.e., if you try to save a widget, you can't; if you save a widget and re-open it, you do not see your previous changes; if your try to open a widget it takes to much time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very intuitive for users with not so much of a technical knowledge. The customer support is great and helpful also, they are open to suggestions and requests for new features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the auto share doesn't work well, therefore the user has to logout/login to be able to view an asset.

It doesn't work that well with multiple tabs opened; it doesn't matter if you're viewing a dashboard in one and working on a widget on another tab. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software is pretty comprehensive for our needs and support is quick to respond to any concerns or requests we may have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some UI bugs, and sometimes the specific use case we need isn't covered. There are workarounds, however. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how flexible the product is and how it does everything I need. If I have any questions, the staff are quick to response & highly knowledgeable about every aspect of the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Knowi is lovely - don't have a bad thing to say. It does it all Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our behavioral health organization has siloed data in over six different systems. There was NO easy way to make sense of our data without my team engaging in a TON of manual labor (insert sighs from my staff as they spent hours hunched over their computer screens trying to export CSV files and make pivot tables).

And then we discovered Knowi, and everything changed.

Knowi provides us with a unified view of ALL our siloed data. We have leadership and departmental dashboards automatically delivered to our team so they can manage their key metrics efficiently and transparently (no more CSV exports and pivot tables). Most importantly, using Knowi has given back precious time to our team that they can use to focus on supporting our staff and patients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's nothing to dislike about Knowi. My team can easily access any data they need or create automatic alerts to ensure we don't miss crucial information (like weekly contract utilization or staff productivity by department). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Knowi has a top-notch data engineering layer that eliminates the need for ETL and ETL resources. It allows you to connect to any data source, regardless of technology, and then simply start querying and joining across these disparate sources. Couple this with it's NLP abilities and it's really quite amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Knowi has so many features that it can take a little while to fully grasp everything it has to offer. The UI is not as slick as some other solutions, but the focus is more on allowing you to quickly tap into your data than spend time on superficial elements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Knowi is a good tool to glue together different data sources and be able to query them in a more intuitive way.

I'd recommend them slightly earlier than scaling stage where you plan on having much more data to analyze over the course of the following months.

Their mongodb integration is powerful and I like the fact that they normalize querying across different data sources.

It does take effort/time to integrate into their ecosystem, but their support and account management team is very flexible in providing you with resourcing to get integrated and started. They have a slack community that you can join to get answers and learn from others.

TLDR;

They are one of the only tools that intuitively support MongoDb.

Their support and account management is really amazing - they do care and show it by dedicating their resourcing when you need it most regardless of whether you're a startup or a big client. This by far makes it easier to leverage and get the most out of their ecosystem.

Once you pick up their query language, it saves time in getting insights across many different data sources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can take some time to get fully integrated into their ecosystem to receive the full benefits.

I'd take advantage of their support engineers and account management team and be proactive in getting questions answered.

They are really top notch compared to others in being able to provide true 1-1 support if you need it.

After signing up, I'd recommend dedicating a week or two to really fully get integrated into the system so you can take full advanage of their flows.

Once you get set up, it opens up a lot of capabilities to maintain reporting, alerts, and queries that are otherwise very manual and time consuming to do.

They have their own query language which you'll want to familiarize yourself with, but their support is really great if you need any assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In 2022-Q1, I conducted a series of data-viz trials between Grow, PowerBI, Mode, trevor.io, GoodData, Klipfolio, Domo, Sisense, Knowi et al. The trials included my team members, but we were outnumbered (by design) by non-tech business users. The biggest surprise was how quickly Mode ("too inflexible & slow") was eliminated – I thought for sure they would be a finalist.

We built the highest number of useful dashboards the fastest using Knowi – a clear win. After the trials, we migrated everything we made to Knowi, as we didn't try out any canned use cases, only real-world "need" cases.

While we selected Knowi as a viz tool, I'm also happy we did so from a data engineering perspective. Knowi's architecture models data thoughtfully, which I'd credit for enabling a collection of elegant features. Like the ability to live-update the contents of a dataset incrementally via API. Or Knowi's ability to query a source, returning a dataset that you can immediately re-query where it becomes a transformed/derived data-set... which it can hold on to for you, or persist in a different destination, or Knowi can even rewrite that derived dataset back to the original source.

Thinking about this now, I have two feature suggestions I'll submit to Knowi. They've been receptive in the past and fast to implement. One is after you edit a query, you are then shown a thoughtful link that (optionally) takes you to your "last dashboard." It could be handy to have in a couple of more places. Finally, in the drag & drop query explorer, I wouldn't mind if the column of fields were resizeable via a handlebar on the side. This might save me some horizontal scrolling, as I tend to make my field names relatively long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how flexible Knowi is in catering to our company's needs, from configuring complex datasets and sending alerts to creating charts and dashboards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You may sometimes run into some minor issues, but their support team will address them swiftly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
