Coefficient Reviews & Product Details - Page 2

We looked at Coefficient because the Membership system we are using for the Cambridge 50+ Woodworkers club is great but is very weak on reporting, and we need a fast way to get our data out of our MySQL Db and into Excel. We were impressed with what we found.

The installation was seamless. Once we entered our Db credentials, we connected securely and could see our tables. Once we selected our tables, the import into Excel was very efficient. Our Db is small, the largest table only has about 5,000 rows, but we were still surprised that the import time just took just a few seconds.

With the tables in Excel, we were now able to create the relationships we needed and start developing our reports. The process from getting set up to seeing our first report took less than a day.

We scheduled daily refreshes so that we knew that our reports would be accurate up to the day prior which is more than adequate for our needs.

Before retirement I worked in the design and development of enterprise e-commerce systems. There were times we could have really used a product like Coefficient to be able to produce ad-hos reports quickly. I highly recommend this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As with any product, there are downsides, but I can honestly say that to date, we have not found any . I suspect we might run into something, but for now it's up and running smoothy and have had no issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Able to pivot the data and pull 100K rows within google sheets. And once its set up you can easily refresh. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ran into some bugs, but the Coefficient team was very responsive and was able to fix the bugs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Coefficient allows me to link data across different platforms enabling real-time analytics. It is user friendly and the performance is consistent which gives me more time to focus on other tasks, not having to repair data linkers that break intermittently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be nice if data refresh could go down to 30min or even 15min intervals. I currently only see options to the hour, but this is not a deal breaker. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Love that it maintains the setup of a sheet as you add in additional columns for formulas and will carry the formulas to any additional lines that get added as you refresh your data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have had issues with the formulas carrying into all of the lines on some sheets, but they are rather large data sets, and it has not been a consistent problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been using Coefficient for collaboration across departments, and it's been really helpful. Having all our data in a single Excel sheet that's always updated makes it easy for different teams to stay aligned (marketing-sales mostly). It’s simple to use, and the automatic updates save a lot of time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Coefficient is great for centralizing data, it does have a bit of a downside. The data comes in a format that’s not always ideal, so you end up needing quite a few formulas to rearrange it into the structure you want—whether that's adjusting columns, rows, or KPIs.

It simplifies complex actions and guides you, shows you best practices and much more Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing ! I can just say its not free but the price is totally worth it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being able to use on the free version and ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Somewhat expensive for our non-profit team to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It connects from so many different data sources across our company. Every department uses it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't think of any at this time. Really a great tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Coefficient has given me hours of my life back. I handle Marketing Ops at my company, which involves a good deal of ensuring that partners within the company and outside of it have the data they need in the tools they already use. An agency partner needed data in a spreadsheet; where we used to use clunky workarounds, Coefficient has enabled us to sync data from the CRM to the spreadsheet for the agency with a miniscule amount of setup. Worth every penny. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Tiny quibble, may be impossible to resolve: I wish Coefficient could create sheets synced from another tool (e.g., a CRM) without the blue Coefficient banner as the first row. Some products look for column headers in the first row, and they won't find them with the Coefficient banner there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Even if you're already familiar with spreadsheet formulas, Coefficient is super easy to pick up. It doesn’t take long to get used to, and it runs really smoothly even on laptops that aren't super powerful. I also like that you can keep everything in one file instead of juggling multiple tools. It’s a great way to get your team up and running without needing a lot of training or onboarding time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The auto-refresh feature doesn’t always work when you use certain filters, and there’s no clear message explaining why it failed. It’d be helpful to have more detailed error messages so users aren’t stuck guessing. Also, I tend to build similar Looker setups across different spreadsheets, so having a way to copy and paste configurations or create reusable templates would save a lot of time.
