Hi hobofan (funny name btw), really good questions:
1) BI/Data analysis for non-developers: It's not a feature we're providing yet out of the box but it's on our roadmap for the upcoming months. For now we're focussing on the best possible DX.
2) FAQ link: Yup, you're right. That's broken right now. We're fixing it.
3) Competitor matrix: Good point, we'll try to make this more clear/objective.
4) Dedicated "features" page: I agree, we'll consider it while restructuring the page.
Again, thanks a lot for your great feedback. And I'm glad you enjoyed using Graphcool so far!
I also have a bit of feedback on the webiste: It looks way way overloaded. I get it, it's cool how easy it is to use, but there are ~6 full blown code examples on very different things. The FAQ link doesn't take me to a FAQ page that answers the questions I have, but instead takes me to a guides page (which is only a little bit better than the FAQ link in the footer that takes me to the main page again). The competitor matrix feels really arbitrary. Fields with almost the exact same texts yield you a "++" and the competitor a "-"? Why? I feel like a dedicated "features" page would do a much better job at highlighting your strengths.
