BI tool with location as a key to get relations between business KPI, demography and market share.

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: I'm able to see advanced and deep relations in my business and market in particular areas

Pros:

- I'm able to see advanced and deep relations in my business and market in particular areas - Template insights reports for real business use cases. It combines location-based data from different sources and puts the data in a context - It enables to work with location data seamlessly in a cloud BI environment with other tools. It has an API connector for Keboola Connections - It works with independent data and logical model. It is pretty easy to drill relations among data from different data sources. You can define a new metric easily. It uses location as a key connecting point

Cons:

- It is only for companies that are ready to work in cloud. In current version, you are not able to embed the maps in third party dashboard. - It does not work on small mobile screen, because the map view and side panel need at least screen in tablet size. It does not work with statistical probability, it shows only what already exists

We use it to discover new places in big towns to open new branch stores and avoid internal cannibalization. - Template insights reports for real business use cases.

Cons:

- It is only for companies that are ready to work in cloud.

Searching for new business opportunities with CleverMaps

4.0 5 years ago

Pros:

Data visualisation in the map. This is really great! Working with different type of regions. Possibility to work with different types of points of interest. Exports of customized views to excel (.csv). Possibility to integrate own data to the map. Lots of features.

Cons:

The basic map data is still a question mark for me. Not very intuitive (a little practice is needed). Good a flexible support / development, but you need to know exactly what you need and what it should look like (low development creativity).

After initial set up, CA is easy to use tool for business users looking for insights in maps.

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: Location/Maps analysis I wouldn't get anywhere else.

Pros:

As our own tool resides in cloud, I like it about CA too. You can get the insights and answers anywhere. The tool is strictly focused for analysis on top of the map layers and I haven't tried any other tool like that. No ordinary BI tools (like Tableau or Looker) can compete with that currently. But it's not their focus, so CA is great solution for accompanying other BI tools. Or as a sole solution, if you resides mostly on location data.

Cons:

Probably the initial set up. It's not that easy as I'd expect. But it's not that long time ago when you were able to set up the project only with the help of CA team. The documentation is ok and I've seen complete analytical beginner set it up with little help from CA support. Still there is lot of work in front of the developers, so the set up of underlying data can be done without too many skills and without help of the support.

Great easy to use software for identifying weak and strong areas of your business

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: Clear and easily understandable outputs of location analyses that can be directly used by our account managers for optimization of our business

Pros:

It enables to work with location data seamlessly in a cloud BI environment with other tools. It has API connector for Keboola Connections.

Cons:

When you want to share the reports with you colleagues, they have to make their account in the tool. Unfortunately, although you have the account and access to the project, you have to make all the clicks and filtering patch to get the report every time, you need to see it.

Pros:

I'm able to see advanced and deep relations in my business and market in particular areas. We use it to discover new places in big towns to open focus our marketing efforts to.

Whew we need to set up a new project, we have to use a command line what is a bit geeky for us. But when you have some data analytics with full tech skill, it very fast to get data to the map.

Location based relations between my business and the real world

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: When you have a network of branches and solving a problem of which ones to keep and which ones to close data in a chart or a table won't help you. Seeing it on a map together with the data that matters the most for the business is what gives you the right perspective to make a decision

Pros:

The biggest pro is that I can see real world relations between the business and the external factors (demography, points of interest, mobility) on a map and evaluate each area individually.

Cons:

For the first time users it can be quite overwhelming

Great tool and even better expertise of the CleverMaps team

5.0 3 years ago

Pros:

It's not easy to get location insights gathering all the data needed in business intelligence tools we are using. Before we were using BI with a combination of Google Maps and a set of spreadsheets, Clevermaps is helping us to get the information we need much faster.

Cons:

Like everything, it could be a bit faster. At some projects where we have large datasets it is taking a while to load.

New visual way to make sense of your data

5.0 4 years ago

Pros:

Most of the data has some sort of geo element to it and CleverMaps is a great alternative to spreadsheet or traditional BI to make sense of it. The tool is very flexible and can be tailored to your needs. Our usecase focuses on visualising and analysing addressable market for B2B companies. The tool makes it easy for non-technical user to play with the data, plan campaigns, manage sales territories and find pockets of opportunity. I love the ability to send any filtered selection I make into another system (e.g. as a label into CRM to highlight key opportunities to focus on).

Cons:

It requires some time to think through the right setup and typically a few iterations before you get what you wanted. End users will require training to make the most of it because there are simply a few things that one needs to get used to.

Small user review

4.0 5 years ago

Comments: We are rather satisfied with the product despite some connection issues. The CleverMaps's people are friendly and fast in response. They always tried to fix our bugs quickly and that may be the most valuable thing for us. Also we were invited by CleverMaps on a meeting with other data providers so that we had a opportunity to learn something a new.

Pros:

Data provided (POIs of CZE), fast front-end. Code is easy to learn. Metrics.

Cons:

We had issues connecting with Shell to the server for several months. It was partially caused by our interval network government. It was solved by [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] from CM few days ago.

Comments: Our mission is to make agriculture sustainable and CleverMaps is helping us to do it more efficiently. As a CEO of the company, I need to know if the effort and resources we are putting into sales bring the maximum results and now I am able to evaluate it.

Pros:

Negligible costs compared to the value it brings to our company. Smooth navigation in the platform, easy integration with our CRM.
