The app provides a set of dashboards to visualize some, but not all, of the collected data. This app includes a Splunk Modular Input that when provided with your Nest's login credentials will periodically poll the same APIs the Android, iPhone, and web apps connect to and pull down schedule, temperature, and many other metrics from the site. The Nest apps seem to only keep data for about 10 days. On top of that, the data was locked-in - there was no data to export to feed into your own systems for further processing and long-term keeping. One of the 'issues' I had with the web-based application was the limited amount of data and metrics it presented to you.
