I love how ThoughtSpot has the ability to set automatic system updates at set intervals to ensure I always have access to the most recent data unlike other BI tools I have used in the past. ThoughtSpots user interface is simple and straightforward. Even at first glance the system is clean and organized and only requires a brief tutorial on how to create reports, generate data visualizations, and customize user pin-boards. Pinboards, in lay-mans terms, are essentially the equivalent of web browser bookmarks, but for your frequently ran reports. Another great feature of pin-boards is that I can share them with my colleagues as needed so I don't have to run or create and pull reports for them. I must admit that the pinnacle of their software is the analytical abilities it offer, there are so many different ways to present data. I love the default reports they included with our system after integration into our internal homegrown tracking software; they understood what we needed and how we need to see it with very little explanation during implementation. I think it goes without saying that they took the time to ensure their reports would export into other programs such as Excel for additional manipulation and analyzation, which makes life so easy for our leadership team when generating and reporting on productivity to upper management.
