3 Reasons to Choose Databox as Your Supermetrics Alternative

Integrations in Databox

All-in-One Data Integration and Visualization Platform

Why complicate your data processes?

AI-powered Analytics Features to Help You Grow

Stay ahead of the competition with Databox’s AI-powered features.

Predict future performance with Metric Forecasts, get insights with AI performance summaries, set smarter goals, and make data-driven decisions. Supermetrics lacks built-in AI capabilities, limiting your ability to gain deeper insights without relying on external tools.

Dashboards

140+ dashboard templates, drag-and-drop interface, custom, and pre-defined date ranges

Databox makes building dashboards a breeze! You can pick from over 140+ ready-to-use templates or start from scratch. With a simple drag-and-drop interface, you can easily add, remove, and resize metrics so your is presented just how you want it. You also have the flexibility to update the date range for the whole dashboard or specific metrics, using preset or custom periods.

No native dashboard capabilities; requires integration with external tools like Google Data Studio for visualization

Supermetrics does not have native dashboard capabilities. It specializes in data extraction and loading (ETL) but requires integration with external tools like Looker Studio, Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, or Power BI for visualization and dashboard creation. This means that while Supermetrics can pull data from various sources, users need to rely on other platforms to create and customize dashboards, which could add complexity and require familiarity with additional tools.

Metrics

4,000+ pre-defined metrics, Metric Library, and user-friendly Metric Tools

Databox offers over 4,000 ready-to-use metrics for your Dashboards and Reports. With the Metric Library, you can easily explore all the available metrics, including any custom ones you’ve added to your account. If you can’t find a specific metric, you can use the Metric Tools to build custom and calculated metrics to track your important KPIs – with no coding necessary.

Provides data extraction but relies on external tools for metrics visualization and calculations

Supermetrics focuses primarily on data extraction from various sources and relies on external tools for metrics visualization and calculations. While it offers connectors to pull data into platforms like Google Sheets or Power BI, users may find it challenging to create custom metrics without technical expertise. The absence of built-in features like Metric Builder or Data Calculations means that users need to utilize the capabilities of the destination platforms to manipulate and analyze the data further.

Integrations

120+ integrations, Google Sheets, SQL database, Custom API integrations, and more

Easily connect to your favorite marketing tools using Databox’s 70+ one-click integrations. Using Custom Data Sources like SQL database, Zapier, Make, Google Sheets, Excel, and more, you can connect to almost any platform. Or push custom data to Databox using Push and Rest API integrations.

Supports multiple data sources but may require individual connectors; charges per connector, potentially increasing costs

Supermetrics supports multiple data sources but may require individual connectors for each one, and it charges per connector, which can potentially increase costs. While it offers up to 132 data sources in its Enterprise plan, users need to purchase connectors for each data source they wish to use. Supermetrics allows data to be sent to various destinations, including reporting and visualization tools like Looker Studio, Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, and data warehouses like BigQuery or Snowflake. However, the lack of options for API or SQL database connections in lower-tier plans may limit integration capabilities for some users.

Reports

Presentation-style reports, Report Automation, automated insights

Choose from a variety of report templates or create a report from scratch. With a variety of different slide types, like text, dashboards, side-by-side, and data stories, add context and explain your results effortlessly. With Report automation, set reminders and schedule your reports to automatically be exported at your set frequency.  Plus, with Data Stories, include insights that automatically update with every report delivery.

No native reporting features; reporting depends on integration with external tools

Supermetrics does not offer native reporting features. Reporting depends entirely on integration with external tools, and users need to utilize features within those tools to generate reports. This reliance on external platforms means there is no built-in option for creating multi-page reports or automating report delivery within Supermetrics itself, potentially adding complexity and requiring additional time and resources.

Goals and notifications

Goals, Alerts, Scorecards, Metric Digest, Slack Notifications, and more

Keep track of your performance with Goals and a built-in notification system. Set targets and monitor progress with Goals, stay updated on top metrics using Scorecards, get customized notifications with Alerts, and receive detailed metric updates through Metric Digest. The best part? You’ll receive notifications via Slack, email, push notifications, and more.

Limited to data extraction; lacks built-in features for goal setting and alerts

Supermetrics focuses on data extraction and does not include built-in features for goal setting or notifications. Users need to manually monitor performance or set up alerts within the destination platforms if supported. The absence of a native notification system means that users may have to rely on additional tools or processes to keep track of their progress and metric performance, which could be less efficient and more time-consuming.

AI Features

Predict future performance with Metric Forecasts and more

Spot trends, growth opportunities and set more realistic goals for your clients with Metric Forecasts. But that’s not all – our upcoming AI-powered features, like Generative AI, Anomaly Detection, Advanced Benchmarks, and Metric Correlation, will take your reporting to new heights, giving you deeper insights into your performance.

No built-in AI features; requires external tools for advanced analytics

Supermetrics does not offer built-in AI features. Users seeking advanced analytics or predictive insights need to rely on external tools that support AI functionalities. The lack of AI capabilities within Supermetrics may limit users’ ability to gain deeper insights without additional investments in other platforms, potentially hindering their ability to leverage data for forward-looking strategies.
