It's all web-based, so instead of trading dashboard files around, you know you're looking at the most recent version of the dashboard
It's easy to view queries and query history, including the resulting dataset
The dropdown Parameters and built-in Python notebook are nice bonuses I haven't seen elsewhere
Support team is great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I still consider Mode a not-super-mature company, so some visualizations can't be done, or customizing labels on visualizations.
Organizing dashboards can only be done at one level, in a Collection. You can't have a collection within a collection. The search bar for looking for dashboards doesn't seem to work, and I can't find all dashboards by one person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the strengths of Mode software is its user-friendly interface, which makes it easy for users to import data and create reports without extensive technical knowledge. The platform also offers various chart types and customization options, allowing users to create visually appealing and informative information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
performance issues when working with large datasets on Mode, which can slow down the data analysis process. Additionally, the data visualization capabilities of the platform are not as advanced as those of other BI tools, which can limit the types of charts and visualizations that can be created.

For the most part, the system is well organized and easy to use. It helps me stay on top of my quarterly KPIs for clients, track productivity and utilization, and I love how the data can generate easy to read charts and diagrams for presentations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's easy to use for those technically inclined. However, I can see how some might struggle when creating more sophisticated reports. Sometimes the reports fail to run and I can't always figure out why, but this may still be part of my learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the UI/UX of Mode. The "Collections" and the "Favoriting" functionality make it easy to find dashboards and reports easily. I also like to use Explorations to dig deeper into specific reports or charts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish there were a way to add a description for each chart or report. Sometimes my analytics team will build dashboards to support various projects, but at times, it's unclear what I'm looking at. It would be nice to have a description field to showcase what each chart displays and how to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Mode makes it possible for ordinary people to generate data reports without sophisticated knowledge of database queries (though someone knowlegeable must create the original reports). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's not the most user friendly software, either for creating reports or viewing the results. However, it's far better than direct queries for most users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to run python scripts on the output from the SQL interface. I also really like the tab capability so we can run many different SQL queries all within the same window. Then interact with every dataset from they python interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes when I have too many data tabs with too much data, the product runs slow and acts buggy. I'd prefer the platform to give me some sort of memory error, but instead it will appear that the query is running, but the query will never finish until I refresh the pages and realize that the query never started.

Mode has a lot of very helpful tools that are excellent for new learners and those who have questions. Mode provides resources for those who have difficult queries and is very user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I can't think of anything with mode that is difficult. Maybe the only thing is that if you are using a shared query under specific parameters (say date for example), if you pull up the report it will default to a very old date from a previous run or the most recent date run by another user instead of you.

I like being able to create definitions with base queries to keep the queries in my reports cleaner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish I could duplicate a query and its charts into a separate report (vs cloning the entire dashboard or copy and pasting the query). I wish I could more easily organize charts in the report - the drag and drop isn't great. I wish things were more automated (e.g., if I rename a field in a query, it automatically updates in my charts so I don't have to adjust the variable in all the charts). I also wish the charts were a little easier to use or had more options (e.g., two bars + line, two lines + bar) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Mode has a very user friendly and smooth interface, you can easily navigate through reports and move between reports simultaneously. You also have the option to download your reports and work on them offilne/share with team members which is vey helpful for those who don't have access as well.

It sometimes is not updated and you have to refresh the version before trusting the data you are working with, need to make sure to check the upper part that tells you when was this report run last time. Sometimes confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
