Better Reports

Very quick response with a custom field which achieved one of my requests.

We are working through another issue as well.

AH! I can't even believe I haven't reviewed this app yet! I literally use Better Reports EVERY SINGLE DAY (even on the weekends). It guides our business in profound ways. I just made a weekly report that evaluates profitability per order and orders over time so we can evaluate the effect of some pricing increases we just made. The information in Better Reports DRIVES our business.

It isn't pretty. There are no fancy charts. It's PURE DATA. If you need pretty charts, you're going to have to make those yourself.

But pure data is what I need; since it's SO INTENSELY CONFIGURABLE, I can create a report for almost anything that I want to know... and if I can't find a data point that I'd like to see, I just reach out to their support (live chat) and they'll create the data point... they've even created new reports for me when I get stuck trying to envision the data I'm trying to get. Their customer service is really great (Hi Keanna!).

I've used tons of metrics apps and dashboards, including Google Analytics, Triple Whale, and Peel (as well as the standard Shopify reports that come with Shopify Plus). We are a very data-driven business, and there are infinite ways of slicing and dicing data... I believe that Better Reports actually provides a competitive advantage because I can investigate theories that other CEOs just don't have access to.

My only complaint is that the cost goes way up for Shopify Plus, and since Shopify Plus has pretty robust and configurable report building, it's a little duplicative.

But with Better Reports, I can automatically schedule reports to be published to Google Sheets, and use Zapier to take the Google Sheets, and post those numbers in Slack... so it provides us a cool opportunity to have real flash report data whenever we need it, where we'll see it. So ultimately, it's worth it.

There is nothing else like this app.

OMG... Life Changing!!

I can do in 3 minutes what it used to take me 30-45 minutes to do using exported sales data and Pivot tables!!

The only remaining question is: What am I gonna do with all this free time!!!?
