Mode Enterprise is being used for dashboard purposes only, specifically for custom dashboards. For the e-commerce domain, we use Mode Enterprise to track customers, such as finding out a customer's first order, second order, or determining from which portal a customer accessed the link, including sources like Facebook. The database is Amazon Redshift, and Mode Enterprise is used for this purpose.
I was put in charge of creating a lot of the dashboards, so it was very much that there weren't people at the company that knew how to use the solution. I was just handed the solution when I transferred bosses, so it was just learning from scratch, with a little bit of assistance from asking the people who ran the company. The solution was quite easy to use once you got the hang of it. I made a lot of dashboards, and since my old position was at a cannabis financing company, I did a lot of macro and micro evaluations with the dashboards. Those measure how the house was doing as a whole or how individual stores were doing. I used a lot of the parameterization feature for the individual stores, which, at first, was a nuisance because I thought you had to type in the information. But once I realized you could transfer the parameter to a drop-down menu, it became super easy to just add the same parameter to every SQL query used to create all the graphs. And then, when I changed one thing, the entire dashboard changed from top to bottom. For especially large ones, it might take a good ten seconds, but instantaneous is a goal not necessarily achievable by every product.
I think I can talk from a design perspective. We experienced a lot of freedom by using Mode Analytics because it allows us to edit the look and feel accordingly to our design system. So that is a good point. I think that is the biggest gain of using Mode Analytics, but also we did need to have a lot of help from front-end developers in order to help us to personalize a little bit of the solution. And also in terms of loading, we had some issues. Our reports are taking up some time to load, so that is not ideal for our final experience. And also the max number of charts we have is twenty in comparison to Power BI, we can have more KPIs on the screen, so that is a con for Mode Analytics.
