How Hometime Deployed 140+ Dashboards and 60+ Automated Alerts with Knowi

Hometime, an Australian PropTech company that has generated over $100M in bookings as Australia's most trusted short-term rental management brand, uses Knowi to power 140+ dashboards and 60+ automated partner alerts. After their previous BI tool was phased out, Hometime evaluated three platforms and selected Knowi for its native multi-source connectivity, saving at least 4 hours per week previously spent on manual report creation.

"Knowi is an exceptional BI platform, especially for startups. It perfectly balances flexibility and ease of use, backed by a supportive and responsive team."

The Challenge

Previous BI Tool Phased Out with 4+ Hours of Manual Reporting Weekly

Hometime's previous BI tool was phased out, forcing a migration to a new analytics platform. The team was spending at least 4 hours each week on manual report creation, and the growing complexity of their operations demanded a more capable solution.

The company needed a platform that could:

  • Integrate across multiple data sources simultaneously
  • Connect to cloud-based services like Google Sheets
  • Support query reuse for consistent metrics across the organization
  • Provide diverse visualization options, PDF export, and regular email reports
  • Remain user-friendly for non-technical staff

The Solution

140+ Dashboards with Native Multi-Source Connectivity

After a two-week trial, Hometime selected Knowi as the clear winner among three evaluated BI tools. Native multi-source connectivity was the key differentiator that set Knowi apart from the competition.

The team migrated critical dashboards quickly to maintain business continuity and rapidly expanded their analytics capabilities:

  • Native multi-source connectivity as the key differentiator
  • Custom HTML widgets for advanced visualizations
  • Slack and webhook integrations for real-time data updates
  • Zapier integration (described as "just GOLD")
  • Reports and alerts via webhooks automating data-driven actions
  • No-code solution development accessible to the entire team
"The Zapier integration is just GOLD. Reports and alerts via webhooks allow us to automate data-driven actions across our entire partner network."
