To help the business with the latest metrics, KPIs, and important insights, we source our data from various data sources into one golden source. Then we push the data to ThoughtSpot and create worksheets and visualize the data in ThoughtSpot in such a way that it is easy for the business to consume. So they see the metrics that they want to seeto drive insights out of the data to make meaningful insights. In addition, our business users and sales representatives who are not exactly technical people use ThoughtSpot to easily move around and help themselves with the data available through simple queries. They can also create a small pin board to extract data in an Excel format that they can then use for their PowerPoint presentations or other purposes. With just a simple query they can find out things like what the revenue earned by a certain client for this month was or what the highest-selling product for this period of time was. ThoughtSpot is like a beautiful melding of Google's search engine and Pinterest's pin feature. It is very easy to go to the ThoughtSpot search bar and then search by not only a field name, but also by a data element. For example, I can say what was the highest revenue earning client this month or which product that I sold brought in the highest revenue? These simple searches are very valuable. You can then pin those searches to your pin board and then create a pin board of your most important KPIs that you'll be visiting very often. Those features are very useful for our end users.

I'm not very actively using it. That said, sometimes it's the requirements, so that's why I have to use it. I'm basically the Power BI developer, however, our company recently purchased ThoughtSpot. I had to make a shift from Power BI to ThoughtSpot. I use it mostly for reporting purposes for higher management. That's why we're using it.

The solution is used primarily for three things. One is for internal operations such as operational reporting, and business intelligence. The second is self-service BI, where people can create their own reports and do their own analytics. The third is we completely whitelist the product and serve it to our customers. We embed it into our other applications, so it looks like a Verisk application and we even have our customers doing self-service analytics, as well.
