Hey -- question for the community here. One gripe i always have with our solidus shop is that it's so hard to get information compared to something like shopify. Like "how many new users did i have last month that paid over $x" -- does anyone have an integration or some sort of metrics integration they're using which is nice to use and can hook up to solidus relatively easily?

We've seen people use BI tools that hook up directly to the database (or a replica), but they were just UIs that you basically just typed SQL into and had some tooling for automating regular reports and stuff.

yeahhhhh -- too technical for my team 😅
klaviyo actually has some decent sort of data plotting bar graph type things, but still is a bit clunky

I’ve seen stores integrate with things like kissmetrics for this https://www.kissmetrics.io/ecommerce/

ohh nice - something like this looks great

You might be able to also pull this data out of GA if you are sending order data
Not sure if you can build fancy reports in that though
Heap is another tool that I’ve seen integrated for this kind of BI https://www.heap.io/use-case/ecommerce

Instacart open sourced their BI https://github.com/ankane/blazer Or basic SQL queries get this info quickly
