CARTO @ Telefónica Ecuador

  • August 11, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The perfect combination between how easy it is to create maps (Drag and drop its the way to go) and the flexibility of manipulating the code to customize the visualizations. Also the flexibility SQL tools give to the maps help a lot. The built in geographical functions provide helpful tools to create new ways to show insights.
What do you dislike about the product?
The flexibility of the calculation of the widgets should allow percentages or custom calculations since we have seen that those contribute significantly to the story telling. Besides that the simplicity in the process of map building has most of the functions needed for map building. And, if something else in needed the sql flexibility allows to build it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Showing big amounts of data in a simple way. We have realized that the more beautiful the more reliable and believable the map is. A lot of the telco data is better presented in a geographical form and also helps the decision making process to be way faster and intuitive than with the current methodologies and reporting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start every project thinking of making the map updates automatic since the story telling and traceability will be richer. Also think about how the different built in tools like APIs to services, geographical functions, database connectors and other services will help you automate and deliver the storytelling and maps. Most of the viewers and interested partners in the map will love the maps and the story telling when it is told correctly.

Clean UI, easy data connections, beautiful graphics

  • August 10, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to connect to multiple data sources, from cloud databases, to local csv files. Getting data from different domains into a single map, such as demographic and internal datasets, to reveal geospatial insights that were not previously obvious to the team before. Carto can be used outside of the UI as well, such as in jupyter notebooks. I like how Carto allows non technical users to build, create and share their maps for viewing. I like how the data connections and maps can be configured to allow for auto-updating, this is a very helpful feature that reduces a lot of manual map updating, and is now automated.
What do you dislike about the product?
Data can't be auto-detected, e.g. geo columns need to be titled explicitly. Load times can get a little slow and laggy at times, connecting to bigquery can be buggy too. It might be better if there was an option to load a sample of the data when working with big datasets, showing a preview for the sample when building the map out.
The map color spectrum can be smarter, it does not detect non numerical ordinal data (e.g. alphabetical), causing manual color selection from the palette.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Multilayered geospatial problems. Being able to share map and geospatial analytics easily with a wide range of audiences that vary in terms of technical/domain expertise. We are solving a wide array of problems in the fields of logistics challenges, marketing reach, market share, competitor analysis, demographic targeting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Why wait? I don't see any other online web/cloud mapping platform that is as comprehensive and complete as Carto.

Easy web mapping accessible to anyone

  • August 10, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It has an intuitive layout which makes anyone with a spatial background easy to carry out computational activities. For someone not from a spatial background, there are lots of tutorials and helpful guides to help get you started. It's easy to use and easy to customise whatever maps/dashboards you are visualising.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some analysis tools can be hard to use at first without some guidance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was using CARTO for a university assignment - the assignment was to create a customisable dashboard using open-source data which allowed people to pan around the map and interact with widgets to change what data was being displayed. CARTO allowed for this process to be easy.

Great value out of the box

  • August 10, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It was extremely easy to create powerful map based insights and it was possible with some effort to create customized ad-hoc dashboards with maps. Interactive reports with filtering capabilities created added value.
Available external datasets where also very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
It was not that easy by that time to provide non map based charts together with the maps.
Licesing schema was not so flexible for some use cases, specially in on premise deployments.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time ago, IoT and data based smart city solutions. The most important benefit was to introduce geographical analysis and representations easily and create map based solution without a GIS platform behind.
On the other hand, integrating external open data was easy and provided a great way to extract value from public administrations open data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start with Builder but consider API based integrations if the case requires it.
