Useful data extraction & visualization Tool

The best thing about ovaledge is that it does not require any additional software or hardware setup for its use. I can simply upload my csv file and start working with it in no time! Nothing really as such, but i would say if you are looking forward to using this tool then make sure that you have ample knowledge of sql queries and other programming languages like python etc. This will help you get better results from oval edge. We used oval edge for our business analytics purpose where we were…

Pros
  • It helps me easily convert data into tables
  • Very easy GUI makes work very much simple.
  • Excel compatible format also available
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Overall positive experience and recommendation despite few minor issues

The ability for it integrates with other products that we use such as Salesforce Marketing Cloud & Hubspot CRM (integration was one of our key requirements). Some features are more difficult than others but they do have good support team around them so this is not too much work when you need some help or guidance along any path in using their product - which can be quite complex! We didn't find anything really bad about ovaledge at first glance though I would say if there's something specific…

Pros
  • Hubspot & Salesforce)
Cons
  • The support team is quite good when you get stuck down and I'm not sure whether the customer support for this is always available if you need it perhaps needs to be more reliable in this part?

Great way keep track and manage your data sources

The simplicity of managing my SQL Server instance from one place as well as being able to see what is needed in real time for any queries I run makes it very useful - especially when working remotely or with colleagues who are not familiar with certain features of SSMS/SSIS. A bit tricky at first getting used to using this tool but once you do, its great! We use OLE DB Source components so we can easily copy over our existing database tables into PowerBI without having to manually upload each…

Pros
  • The ability to create a SQL Server instance from scratch and deploy a database via Power BI is very useful
Cons
  • The learning curve is a bit steep at first but once you get the hang of it, its great!
