KISSmetrics vs Superset: What are the differences?

What is KISSmetrics? Get actionable metrics for your business. Optimize Your Business and Get More Customers. Identify, understand, and improve the metrics that drive your online business.

What is Superset? Data exploration and visualization platform, by Airbnb. Superset's main goal is to make it easy to slice, dice and visualize data. It empowers users to perform analytics at the speed of thought.

KISSmetrics can be classified as a tool in the "Funnel Analysis Analytics" category, while Superset is grouped under "Business Intelligence".

Some of the features offered by KISSmetrics are:

  • The basic unit in KISSmetrics is a person. When you view your KISSmetrics reports they show you people, not just aggregate data.
  • Track your person-centric data
  • Our JavaScript allows you to track data right from your website so you can measure your campaigns, discover your referrers and understand marketing attribution.

On the other hand, Superset provides the following key features:

  • A rich set of visualizations to analyze your data, as well as a flexible way to extend the capabilities
  • An extensible, high granularity security model allowing intricate rules on who can access which features, and integration with major authentication providers (database, OpenID, LDAP, OAuth & REMOTE_USER through Flask AppBuiler)
  • A simple semantic layer, allowing to control how data sources are displayed in the UI, by defining which fields should show up in which dropdown and which aggregation and function (metrics) are made available to the user

"Extremely easy" is the primary reason why developers consider KISSmetrics over the competitors, whereas "Awesome interactive filtering" was stated as the key factor in picking Superset.

Superset is an open source tool with 25.1K GitHub stars and 4.83K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Superset's open source repository on GitHub.
