Chat-based customer support second to none - friendly and inviting app
Reviewed on 26/01/2018
Stellar customer support, easy to use user interface, a lot of support for 3rd party analytics apps. App that keeps getting more features - app is alive development-wise and trustworthy.
Pros
I believe the best aspect of the app is the in-browser chat support. I've received so much support and suggestions and advice from them that I've never experienced such prompt and helpful customer support before with any app. I've been asked to check out new features in a demo, too, which was wonderful - after a few months, the features in the demo were added to the app itself.
I feel like there is a good reason to reach out to the customer support team and ask for features, as they seem open to them - this is not a company run by shark-like salesmen/saleswomen, but a developer-led company - where things that are difficult to do are eventually made easier to accomplish, and so on.
I've received such stellar customer support from people and all others that I'm really quite awed. You're doing very, very well.
I know Geckoboard will keep on becoming a better app, little by little, and that is a good feeling to have.
Cons
There are limitations to Geckoboard - I might not always be able to find a solution that suits me the best way - there are always some ways to improve the workflow - but the way the customer support listens to use and implements features or provides help pretty much negates any cons I might have with it.
One thing maybe is that I'm not able to "park" a dashboard so that it's settings are kept safe even though I have downgraded from two dashboards to one dashboard.
And another is that there is no way to select multiple objects and copy them to another dashboard quickly.
But my experience overall has been that if I ask for something, and it's not there, it might get implemented in the future.
Another thing is that I was getting errors from MixPanel, but was not able to see what the error was - this is another thing that can be improved from Geckoboard aspect, it's not a con it's just a missing feature that could be implemented in the future.

Great for Managing with KPIs
Reviewed on 10/05/2018
Pros
Geckoboard makes it really easy to publish your team's KPI's, and make them visible to the entire team or company. It connects to the tools we use everyday, and requires very little setup.
Cons
It is a great solution for quick deployment. However, you don't have as much control over the metrics and how they are displayed. You can write custom integrations if needed, however if you require a lot of customization it might be better to build something in-house.

Great for Tracking Weekly and Quarterly Sales
Reviewed on 25/11/2020
We have been displaying our daily and weekly sales data.
Pros
We are able to customize our salesforce reports and display the reports on our screens throughout the hospital.
Cons
Sometimes there is a bit of a lag between refreshes on the data on the board but I dont think its too sizeable.

Geckoboard is the best dashboard tool, let alone cloud base software , I've ever used!
Reviewed on 11/10/2017
Pros
No training needed. No reading manuals needed. The ease of use and intuitiveness of this platform is untouched by most software's out there. The out of box integrations with Zendesk, Salesforce is incredibly valuable for us and is the exact data we were looking for. The customer support is extremely helpful and friendly. They are constantly adding more addons and upgrading their current ones.
Overall, you can setup very clean and professional dashboards with Geckoboard in a matter of minutes.

Excellent for TV dashboards
Reviewed on 16/10/2019
Overall if you are looking for a way to get metrics on a TV to drive team performance, this is perfect. If you are looking for a BI tool, look elsewhere.
Pros
Geckoboard is very easy to use and get set up. If you have basic knowledge of data, you will be able to get metrics and dashboards created easily. They also have a wide variety of prebuilt dashboards. The metrics looks great and getting them up on a TV can have a huge impact on team performance.
Cons
There aren't many options for working with your data but that's to be expected here. You really need to have your data in the format you want it displayed before you bring in into Geckoboard.

Make beautiful and super functional dashboards with Geckoboard
Reviewed on 13/11/2018
Displaying ONLY the data we want to display from google sheets to make it simple for our warehouse and production team to see critical stats.
Pros
We use a data tool which is capable of creating very power dashboards and while we utilize that tool for many things, we needed a tool which would be simple enough for other departments to build dashboards themselves. We have several dashboards that pull data from several google sheets to create powerful dashboards that are displayed all throughout our production and warehouse locations. We love geckoboard!
Cons
Like many things, Geckoboard can be a bit of a learning curve when importing data from excel or google sheets. Having knowledge in excel / sheets helps if that's where you're planning to import from.

AWESOME DASHBOARD!!!
Reviewed on 17/05/2018
Pros
The easy of use...I literally created a fully capable dashboard showing all of our contact center data in less than 30 min. This tool is amazing. It impressed my boss, who is very hard to impress.
Cons
I loved that Geckoboard has a ton of apps to integrate with, but I would like to see a bit more. Also, when using the 'custom widget' feature, I did see some "loading failed" errors, which is odd since its pulling data from the app its linked to. But all in all, I love this product!

easy quick visuals
Reviewed on 12/10/2017
Pros
enables the wider business to see web metrics as an easy to use dashboard. Enables data with maps to give overall impression of business spread. Auto update for live stats.
Configuration is easy.
Can share key stats with colleagues and clients alike.
The Info is Live which is a real bonus.
Custom widgets are really useful.
Cons
Could integrtrae a little more with other tools but still allows csv or txt imports, not yet found an API to do it seamlessly and as "live" as everything else.

Pros
Awesome design and even persons with basic IT skills can use this software, can interface with a lot of third-party apps and east to customise charts
Cons
I would have loved if the dashboards had drill down metrics. This way you can see some cause and effect or at least some relationships between key metirics

A cool looking dashboard creator
Reviewed on 15/02/2021
Mostly good.
Pros
Definitely how the dashboards look. The information can be seen in a compelling way, which is super important considering that sometimes you need to communicate hard to understand KPIs. Dashboards are easy to create and deploy, there are some very pretty prebuilt ones.
Another positive thing is how the Geckoboard Team constantly adds new data sources to increase compatibility.
Cons
When I was using it, the integration with Google Analytics was relatively limited, unfortunately, I needed to add a calculated metric on the dashboard and Geckoboard didn't allow me to do it.

Nice one stop solution for dashboard metrics
Reviewed on 21/11/2018
Pros
Geckoboard has a variety of really nice integrations with third party products. Most SaaS solutions you would be interested in tracking have integrations which makes it pretty easy to get going with displaying relevant metrics. The website interface is also pretty easy to use and you can get a dashboard together pretty quickly.
Cons
The interface for getting custom metrics uploaded could be a bit easier to use but overall it is a good solution and not bad to get started with it!

5-minute setup, but needs more filters
Reviewed on 20/11/2018
If you have TVs or monitors on your wall, you've already made an investment to get data in front of your team. Geckoboard is a great way to do this. It isn't perfect yet, but is still the easiest tool I've used to get data up quickly.
Pros
Geckoboard was amazingly easy and fast to setup. We've had monitors in our office for years, but never fully utilized them. Geckoboard provided a very easy and fast way to get our data set up. It pulls from the other softwares we're using (Hubspot, Zendesk, Google Doc, etc.) and displays the information in a great format.
Cons
You're limited to pre-determined fields of data that you an display without much editing (e.g. you can only display data points that Geckoboard has set up). The ability to edit what is being displayed is also limited, depending on the data point. I've also had an issue with knowing the timeframe of the data. For example, we display the % of inbound support calls answered under 40 seconds. I'm unable to define the date/time range (7 AM - 7 PM, last 24-hours, etc.)

Great support experience
Reviewed on 29/05/2018
Pros
Support team are amazing and support people who are not 100% IT savvy. Widgets have everything required to show your company or department exactly where the team is at.
Cons
More personalisation. But that's a minor con. It's the data that is more important and Geckoboard supports that.

Fantastic Selection of Integrations But Not Responsive and Lacks Customization
Reviewed on 08/11/2015
We've got all of our clients set up on our board so that we can monitor how well they're performing each month. It's a great dashboard that we have on display in our office and have set as a desktop for our executives.
Pros
Incredible selection of integrations.
Cons
Lacks responsiveness. It's a fixed layout for width and height so difficult to resize for different viewports.
Lacks any color scheme customization. We'd love to build our own color palette but there's no option.

Ideal dashboard for the office
Reviewed on 24/03/2018
Pros
We run two ASUS Chromebits with Geckboard in our office. It's a critical component for us to keep track of our Business intelligence as well as Server Performance.
Coolest part is probably the custom data that can be fed in combined with the prebuilt widgets.
Cons
The pricing is steep. And it is missing some widget components (connections) with AWS but that's just about it.
