I just commented on another video (that I thought was extremely good), but let me copy paste my question since this video is posted more recently: Dude what a fantastic video! I’m using power bi at the moment but it’s quite killing me. Least user-friendly garbage BI tool I ever used. Wrt Geckoboard, how about the security (e.g. AD groups for what selections of users can see) and cloud live connections etc? Is it advanced in that as well?
Hi - thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated! Yes, you can invite users to view a single dashboard: support.geckoboard.com/en/articles/6055698-invite-new-people-to-access-specific-dashboards On cloud tools (presuming you're talking about data warehouses?) we connect to 6 different SQL databases: MySQL, Redshift, PostGreSQL, Snowflake, MariaDB and Microsoft SQL Server. We also have other solutions for cloud-based data sources, as well as 90+ integrations. With regard to the comparison between Geckoboard and PowerBI, it's worth bearing in mind that Geckoboard is not a BI tool, so has less computational functionality. It's more specifically designed as a data dashboard tool. We wrote about this recently in our Dashboard Buyer's guide: www.geckoboard.com/best-practice/best-dashboard-software-buyers-guide/ If you have further questions (particularly about your specific needs), our amazing Support team would be happy to help. You can contact them here: www.geckoboard.com/about/contact/ Hope this helps, Dale
