UI-licious
I'm using Segment for data collection + MixPanel for product usage analytics at @ui_licious. I've tried a couple of different data analysis and visualization tools before, but MixPanel is the easiest to use so far for me and my marketing team.
I also use ProfitWell for SaaS business analytics, integrated with Stripe, to study our revenue growth, retention, and churn. ProfitWell is also free for all the basic and important types of analysis.

@ui_licious @taishiling Profitwell seems interesting. Does it provide you better analytics than Stripe?
UI-licious
@ui_licious @gauravgoyal_gg Yea, Stripe analytics is quite basic. To name a few things you can do with ProfitWell is that you can get a view of an individual customer and see MRR changes over time as a chart, you can segment customers and analyse MRR changes within a segment. Plus because we also have large enterprise customers that pay manually outside Stripe, I could manually add that data point to ProfitWell to get a more complete picture of the business.

Business analytics is essential to any successful company, as it allows you to make data-driven decisions that can help improve your business operations and drive growth π. To create a data-driven culture within your organization, it's important to use a mix of products and infrastructure to gather and analyze relevant data π».
One important aspect of this is having a centralized data warehouse where you can store and analyze your data from various platforms π¬. Options for data warehouses include BigQuery and Redshift, as well as cloud-based solutions like Snowflake πͺοΈ. To visualize and make sense of the data, you can use tools like Tableau, Looker, and Qlik Sense π.
In addition to your data warehouse, you should consider integrating other platforms that can provide valuable insights for your business π€. These might include attribution tools like Hubspot, Pipedrive, or AppsFlyer, media and social platforms like Facebook and Google, and product analytics tools like MixPanel or Amplitude.
Suppose you have a small startup and don't have the resources for a full-scale data infrastructure. In that case, you can also consider using a SaaS platform like Databox to help with your business analytics needs π°.
To learn more about creating a data-driven culture in your organization, you might find it helpful to check out the "Bigbrain Monday" YouTube video πΊ, which provides valuable insights and best practices for data analysis and visualization. And if you're interested in a step-by-step guide to planning and delivering on your business analytics goals, let me know, and I'll write an article on the topic π.

If you want to transform your data and then analysis it. You can try our product: QuickTable(https://www.quicktable.io)

@zhitao_yan Nice, I will try this :)
So I particularly use GA, mixpanel, redash and the most common of all Excel. I generally use mix panel to get in product behaviour analytics. Redash and GA are generally used when I want to dig deep, but in the end most of the analysis work is done on excel.

@saurabhwadhawan @wilddeer1 Absolutely, redash is super powerful.
I have used Tableau but I am not a big fan.

@shivi_goel Same.
My team uses Qlik view, it's preferred because of its unique features, such as patented technology and in-memory processing, facilitating the delivery of ultra-fast business analytics reports.
I do like using mixpanel.
Scalenut
Redash mostly.
AWS Quicksight is what i would suggest
I honestly think it depends on your business needs. I for one, am more into the marketing aspect of the business and am usually satisfied with Google Analytics. Occasionally, Redash too.
