To Infinity...and Oviond!
What's actually changed since last time? I'm not really seeing much. I'm shocked that you can't do any sort of custom calculations, for example.
Honestly, Oviond doesn't even feel valuable in its current state. I'm having a hard time understanding why I would drop Google Studio, which offers more connectors and is free, for something like Oviond where it's much more rigid and given how much time has elapsed from last deal to this deal, I can't say that there's a ton of value in it.
Sure, you can automate reports to send out, but that's not even a key feature for my use case where I have to actually present the reports; either way I'm downloading it and sending a recap. I can share a report link for Data Studio as well, so that's not an inherent perk or benefit. The map 'chart' is a bit of a joke to be honest; the only "working" view is the Country view, but region and city don't work, nor can you narrow the scope of the map like you can in Data Studio.
Once again, this feels like a classic case of "anything you can do, I can do better," except that the odds are tipped in Data Studio's favor and there you don't have a limit on clients and you have much more flexibility and granularity over the reporting and dashboards you build out.
Overall, Oviond feels stale and old and outdated. I don't have a lot of hope for its future.

Thanks for taking another look at Oviond. We appreciate your time and feedback.
I understand your frustration around the custom calculations. We are late in releasing this feature on V2. Rest assured this is a key component of our future growth plan, we need to get it right. A huge amount of work has been done and It will be making a return within the next few weeks.
We have noted your feedback on the Map Chart issue and will be working on in over the coming days.
A huge emphasis has been placed on creating a simple, clean, modern UX. I am sorry that you feel that we have missed the mark here, some specific feedback would be greatly appreciated.
In terms of what has changed on V2; We have fully rebuilt the product from the ground up to better serve the needs of our customers. Fundamentally it does the same thing but with hundreds of small improvements and a brand new stack foundation that better allows for speed and scale, along with an updated UI. Here are some of the highlights: https://help.oviond.com/en/articles/6042860-what-s-new-on-oviond-v2
