“they understood how to write the queries at the end of 60 minutes”

What happened
CarTrawler replaced its in-house BI tool with ThoughtSpot Cloud, running on its Snowflake data warehouse. Business users query car reservation data themselves without writing SQL, so analysts can spend their time on larger strategic questions.
Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of ThoughtSpot and CarTrawler, not ours.
- 10“after the original proof of concept, all 10 users in the test answered with a unanimous ‘Yes!’ when asked if this was the software they wanted”
- 20“CarTrawler offers users 20 of what the Data Insights team have identified as highly curated, well-documented data sources through ThoughtSpot Liveboards”
When we did the first training session with the supply team, they understood how to write the queries at the end of 60 minutes. For me, that was really the confirmation we’d made the right choice; when you show a new BI tool to people not used to it who can figure it out that quickly—you know you have a winner.
People are more able to look at patterns, rather than just repeating the same analysis. now time can be spent on what we can do for the market with this information, rather than waiting for the data to come through.
