A fantastic option for simPRO > Power BI Reporting!

Reviewed on 26/05/2022

Pros

The Tugger platform and support from the Tugger team has meant extracting data from our field service management software (simPRO) to Microsoft Power BI seamless, pain-free and cost-effective!

The standard reports made available for free are excellent, and the customisations and bespoke reports that Tugger have supported us on have been just as excellent!

Cons

None! We haven't found any fault with the Tugger platform itself!

Pros

It's very easy to use and has a completely "out of the box" feel and set up.

Cons

You can't change dates in the tug without starting a fresh one.

Response from Tugger

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand how important flexibility with dates is and will review this to see how we can improve. If you have any additional details or suggestions, we'd love to hear them!

My Experience Working with Tugger

My experience with Tugger has been excellent overall. They’re a fantastic partner for anyone needing to pull data from various systems in a straightforward, seamless way. Tugger has removed the need for data engineering in my workflow, saving me either: 1) a huge amount of time learning a new skill, or 2) the expense of hiring another team member to fill the skill gap.

As I mentioned above, the team is great and adds a lot of value to the product itself. I'll be staying with Tugger in the future as it's a great service.

Pros

Tugger is a fantastic tool that makes it easy to work with data from SimPro - data that would have been a headache to pull on my own. Everyone I've interacted with, from [sensitive content hidden] in sales to [sensitive content hidden] in support, has been personable, knowledgeable, and responsive to all my questions.

Cons

My least favorite thing about Tugger is navigating through the large amount of data it pulls- there’s just so much to sift through! It's more of an analyst challenge than an issue with Tugger itself.

My overall experience has been fantastic. I felt well looked after and supported throughout my trial and onboarding. The connectors are easy to setup and maintain and everything is very well documented. When I had questions or concerns, Tugger were quick to respond and offer to jump on a call to assist. I couldn't be happier with the level of support I've received.
My reports are now up and running and require very little input. The templates provided were very detailed and gave me some great ideas for my own reports.

Pros

Tugger is easy to use and well documented. The support we received has been friendly, helpful and knowledgeable throughout. I found the platform easy to integrate with my existing Power BI reports and found the included templates extremely useful when trying to understand what I could achieve with the data.

Cons

I found some of the templates a bit overwhelming due to their size and complexity, however, Tugger's support team were quick to advise when I had questions

Pros

The process was easy even if you do not have a lot of BI experience.
And using the tokens/keys to implement the "tug" in other custom dashboards was very easy.

Cons

For a small organization like ours the price is a bit high since we just need to be able to pull data from our time registration system.

The software that we used to Tugger to integrate with (Mentor CASH) is a fantastic bit of software for our industry (Security) however getting easy to understand reports from it is sometimes not the easiest especially if you want to analyse the data on your system. We used Tugger initially for a trial period and even though ti was only a trial the support from Tugger, at getting it set up and running was second to none and within 30 minutes the system was starting to generate excellent visual data that our whole team could use.I would have no hesitation in recommending Tugger for its ease of set up and use.

Pros

The program is eay to use and its integration with our CASH software along with its dashboard makes analysing our data simple and clear.

Cons

There was no real cons to using tugger with our Mentor CASH softare.

I was only involved in the early setup (now handed over to the business), but for a Power BI novice I managed to get tugging and solving some immediate data access/reconciliation issues just using Excel. The product is intuitive and documentation simple to follow. And most importantly it does what it says on the tin.

Reviewed on 23/02/2023

Pros

The ability to have reports that automatically update from our systems has had a massive improvement on the reporting ability of the business. We are already wanting to plan further reports and dashboards to target our departments specifically, and using Tugger speeds up this process for us in terms of planning exports ect

Cons

Tuggers keeps using the original field headers within our system, even though there is the ability to replace these within the system. It would be nice if Tugger could pull these to make reviewing data easier.

Response from Tugger

Hi Karl,

thanks for your great review. In the Tugger Power BI reports you can actually change the field names to match those you have amended in your own system.

If you would like someone from the team to show you how, please just send an email to support.
