Supermetrics alternative
A Supermetrics alternative for teams who need more than connectors
Supermetrics is strong at piping platform metrics into Sheets, Looker Studio, and BI tools. Vendo is the alternative when the goal is a marketing data foundation: joined customer and revenue records, one set of definitions, reports your team trusts, and signals synced back to platforms with review.
At a glance
Two different shapes of product
What Supermetrics does well
- Broad connector catalog for marketing reporting
- Destinations analysts already use: Sheets, Looker Studio, Excel, BI tools, warehouses
- Quick refreshes of per-platform metrics
- A familiar, analyst-owned reporting workflow
What Vendo does differently
- Prepared, joined tables — customers, orders, spend — not just per-platform metric pulls
- Identity rules that link customers across storefront, CRM, and payment systems
- Definitions agreed once and reused in every report, customer group, and signal
- Activation back to ad and messaging platforms, reviewed before send
- An Agent that can prepare analyses and recurring work on governed data
Side by side
How the two compare
An honest cut
Which one fits your team
Choose Supermetrics if…
- You need platform metrics in spreadsheets or Looker Studio, fast
- Reporting is the whole job — no activation loop needed
- Per-channel metric pulls answer your questions without joining data
- Your BI team owns modeling and just needs raw feeds
Choose Vendo if…
- Your numbers must join across systems — ads, storefront, CRM, payments
- The team needs one definition of revenue and customers, not one per sheet
- You want to send conversion signals and audiences back to platforms, with review
- You would rather have a managed pipeline and warehouse than maintain connector queries

Keep spreadsheet exports where they still fit — Vendo’s warehouse remains queryable by your BI tools
This is a different shape of tool, not a connector swap — the payoff is definitions and activation, and it is worth validating on one workflow first.
FAQ
Common questions
Is Vendo a drop-in Supermetrics replacement?
No — it is a different shape of product. Supermetrics moves metrics into destinations you manage. Vendo manages the pipeline and warehouse, prepares joined tables under shared definitions, and adds reports, customer groups, and reviewed activation on top.
Can Vendo still feed Sheets or Looker Studio?
Yes, indirectly and reliably: Vendo prepares data in BigQuery (managed or your own), and Looker Studio and most BI tools read BigQuery natively. Vendo reports also cover many recurring dashboards directly.
Does Vendo replace our BI tool?
No. BI tools stay for company-wide dashboards. Vendo replaces the fragile marketing-data plumbing underneath them and adds marketing-specific reports and activation that BI tools do not do.
How long does setup take?
Connect sources, agree definitions, validate one report against known outcomes — usually days. Migrating every report is incremental from there.
