Their Pitch
Reports & dashboards that people love
Our Take
A drag-and-drop dashboard builder for small teams who want pretty charts without calling IT every time.
Deep Dive & Reality Check
Used For
- +**Manually pulling data from 5 different tools every Monday morning** → Automated dashboards that refresh daily with all your sources combined
- +**Your clients get confused by raw spreadsheet exports** → Clean, branded reports you can share via URL or email
- +**Building the same chart 10 times for different clients** → One template with dynamic filtering that personalizes for each client
- +Connects to 75+ sources without coding - MySQL, Shopify, Amazon Redshift all plug in directly
- +Pre-built templates save you from starting with blank canvases every time
Best For
- >Your marketing team keeps bugging IT for Shopify sales reports
- >You're paying $500/month for Tableau when you just need basic charts
- >Your boss wants "real-time dashboards" but you have zero technical skills
Not For
- -Teams over 50 people — you'll hit the user limits and pricing gets ugly fast
- -Companies with messy, unstructured data — this assumes your data is already clean and organized
- -Anyone needing forecasts or predictions — it only shows what happened, not what might happen
Pairs With
- *MySQL (where your clean, structured data lives that Slemma can actually handle)
- *Shopify (to pull sales data for those eCommerce dashboards your boss keeps asking for)
- *Slack (where you'll share dashboard URLs and get feedback on your charts)
- *Google Sheets (for the data prep work Slemma can't handle when things get messy)
- *Zapier (to move data between tools since Slemma's 75 connectors might miss your weird niche app)
The Catch
- !No free tier means you're paying $99/month minimum just to test it out
- !Works great with clean data, falls apart when your sources have missing fields or formatting issues
- !Limited real-user reviews suggest most people haven't heard of it — you might be beta testing their market fit
Bottom Line
Builds your first dashboard in under an hour, but you'll outgrow it fast if your data gets messy.
