Recommendations for 3P dashboarding/analytics for Amazon stuff?
Long time seller, 30k FBA SKUs across 8 stores (1 PL store, 1 distributorship, 6 under agency, low-8 in rev) — wondering if anybody can recommended a 3P dashboarding service for impromptu spot-check analytics.
Ideally use case would be an on-demand snapshot of products by a set (brand, product type, $margin, <insert some list>, etc.) that charts whatever specified metrics (sales, profit, margin, etc.) over time. Simple, easy to use queries that are easy to answer — we save our more robust questions typically over excel and nothing really beyond that (despite having several ML/R folks on our analyst team). Simple is good. 🙂

We currently use FV for their inbuilt dashboarding which kindasorta serves our needs (items can be segmented by brand, and replenishment) but we really want to create custom labels of our own while avoiding rolling our own SQL database and doing queries all day. Emphasis on ease-of-use without needing to be too high powered.
We like it, we’re used to it, but we don’t use their repricing services any more given everyone’s push to MAP and controlled A/B testing, so we’d like to get more value out of our $1k/month in app fees and figured there’s something better for cheaper out there.
Would love to hear what other folks are using!
PS: Our typical dashboard use cases:
- I’m a lazy person who wants to click one button and get a sneak peak: How is <insert list of ASINs> doing, like right now? Show it in a graph over time! Said collection of ASINs could be a brand, new SKUs we’ve onboarded, SKUs we’ve put on sales, etc.
- Question 1 but I don’t want to know sales over time, but change the X/Y axes to others things — like session:purchase ratios (when A/B testing price, content) etc.
- Uh now <insert stakeholder> wants to know #1 – can we export that view to a URL, send the graphic + export details by SKU, etc.?
A few services have a lot of overengineered views on prospecting and discovery — we’re just looking to farm our own SKUs and constantly look at stuff internally.
