Pourquoi passer à Mode

Avantages

Mostly reliable, queries run quickly and efficiently over large data sets.
Easy to put together charts quickly
SQL and Python support in one place is great - no need to export .csv files into a jupyter notebook all the time

Inconvénients

charting options can be limited sometimes, and I don't always have the time to put something together in python.

pivot tables are AWFUL, just get rid - it's not even worth offering them

Avantages

Mode is very easy to use, and it really helps with my day-to-day tasks and projects

Inconvénients

There are some SQL features that aren't compatible with MODE, which has led me to do extra work to complete my queries that could be complicated if that function was available.

Avantages

I love the ease of use here. I hadn't used SQL prior to this and their SQL training was really beneficial for me to go through.

Inconvénients

At times, it's confusing in how to share your project, who it is sharing to, what they have access to, etc.

Avantages

Very easy to use, set up and organize. Their charting and reporting tools are super powerful, and generate great dashboards and reports.

The ability to schedule report runs and even send them to Slack or email makes it easy for everyone in our organization to be on the same page.

Inconvénients

Really just some minor UI annoyances, but nothing that would prevent me from recommending the software.

Avantages

The ability to do queries in both SQL and R programming allow for dynamic data pulls. The ability to schedule reports is also very helpful for the different departments at my company.

Inconvénients

There aren't a lot of holes in what Mode provides. I may not be as informed as I need to be but I often run into issue joining one SQL query to another SQL query.

Avantages

Mode makes it easy to add data from a wide variety of sources, run live queries on that data, and produce detailed graphs and sheets with your results. Its free plan is comprehensive and great for public data collections.

Inconvénients

Mode can be limited in its visualizations and sources. If you're looking for more comprehensive BI toolsets, you may want to consider more expensive options. The cons at this price point are essentially zero though.

Avantages

Incredible organization for my sets of code, great sharing amongst teams, great visual display of information

Inconvénients

It's pretty hard to think about what I don't like. Dynamic variables have not always worked properly in my experience and charting can be a bit rigid

Avantages

Once you learn how to use its features, it's very easy to use; building the reports, sharing them, and reading them

Inconvénients

I sometimes have to refresh the browser to see the latest changes I made and make certain features work
The graphing options are much more limited than Excel's

Avantages

Mode is easy to set up and a great cost effective option for small teams.

Inconvénients

Not as easy to scale as other options. I wouldn't recommend for larger organizations.

Avantages

I love that [1] I could get started very quickly [2] easy to write sql queries [3] but have the option of adding more complex features to build cool dashboards.

Inconvénients

The advanced features are cool, but it takes a lot of time to figure out how to use them. The Mode service team is really good at providing support, but you still need a lot of background to leverage the help they give you.

Avantages

Easy to use and plot graphs immediately, you can discover insights really fast.

Inconvénients

Free version does not allowed to share your reports
