I like how ad hoc it can be. While it is possible to pull the same reports over and over again, the strength is how flexible it can be. This lets me use ThoughtSpot to pull the most pertinent information every time.

ThoughtSpot is very slow loading which is the biggest callout. The DMV Sloth meme comes to mind. Also when building multiple Answers the data often "breaks" and needs to be reloaded.
