Great but of kit
Love having the numbers to hand daily, everything available together makes life easier, especially as it’s in app format.

Good
Good app. One thing that would be good is the ability to manually refresh the reports (if your the owner of them).
The power I website isnt very mobile friendly so it’s a pain to log on there to do it.

Translation bad
It is stupid idea to translate the work only according to the language iPhone is using. Keep the original language in the file!

Reverse the filter screen as default
When opening for example the prior day sales it opens on the filter page and then you go into the prior day sales. It would be best and faster if it opened to the prior day sales page and then the filter page was default.

Please change

Cumbersome problematic system
Difficult to see most needed data. Layers that need to access on phone are cumbersome, load fails frequently l, then can’t zoom to see info. Been using for 9 months and still very frustrated accessing data. Definitely do not recommend this platform. Our old simple data platform far exceeded this.

Could be better
The filtering functionality in the dashboards and reports is really hard to use. Enabling filters to use native IOS filters (swiping up and down across values) would be a big improvement. Right now you need to zoom or break fingernails to filter.

I do like this app/program overall!
Hello! My company recently ended a contract with a company offering similar services. I do like this program! It seems to be very versatile. I look forward to working with IT to fine tune it to best suit our needs.

Question though - would it be possible enlarge the icons at the top of the window (Sales and Profit window)? That is, to the left, the arrow pointing up/2 down, surrounding icons, and on opposite side of window filter symbol/arrow/maximize icons as well as the icons to the far top right. I actually created a picture for descriptive purposes. Unfortunately, no way to upload here.

We have 40 sales reps in the field who will be using this exclusively on iPads and phones. Enlarging the icons for better maneuverability when drilling down on analysis - I can already tell from some feedback - will make a huge difference.

Thanks and looking forward to further development of this app!

Please add Bookmarks!
This feature is super valuable on the iPad and computer but should also be available for phone. While you’re at it, allow us to create bookmarks on the iPad at least. These are mandatory for mobile business. Then I’ll give you 5 stars!
