Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It offers a wide range of analytics options including statistics and visualizations, as well as prediction capabilities, allowing users to make forecasts based on the latest data.""Pyramid has a wide level of uses, as it's a complete ETL process and has a good level of connecting to a lot of data sources.""The most valuable feature of Pyramid Analytics, outshining even top-tier platforms like Power BI, is its robust support for DAX queries.""It seems quite performant in analyzing multi-dimensional information sets and presenting them.""It proved to be a very powerful and useful tool due to its breakdown capabilities, easy reporting features, flexibility in building custom calculations, and the ability to integrate them into reports.""The on-premise version has quite good scalability.""The features I find most valuable are 'Discover,' 'Formulate,' and 'Model.' I use them regularly to build logic and create reports for my job.""I think the most valuable Pyramid Analytics feature is the solution's ability to drill down and dice in the loop. I think it is better than InExcel or Power BI."

"It has allowed me to move my data to the cloud.""Whenever we have an issue or are unsure how to proceed, they manage to simplify the issue and help us execute it in a graceful and scalable way.""I have found the dashboard creating feature helpful.""The best part about this solution is how easy it is to mash up the data from many sources. Sisense is fast compared to other solutions.""Allows us to execute heavy, complex computations on the fly so customers can slice and dice the data based on their business needs.""We like that this solution allows us to use data cubes to set up specific visualizations.""Sisense has helped us gain knowledge about our customers, as well as highlighting data quality issues to correct.""Ability to work with very large data sources without the limitations of Excel."

Cons
"It would be desirable to have the possibility to generate a data dictionary, detailing the original physical tables, renamed fields, and derived fields.""Pyramid Analytics could improve by speeding up data refresh, especially for large datasets.""Even though the solution has a functionality for every step, it's not so well- defined. That needs to be improved.""The general amount of negative comments that I am hearing from my team makes me very wary.""I think the graphic number of charts and components could be higher, at least comparable to Brain Power BI.""There is room for improvement in terms of the user interface, particularly when it comes to modifying connections between filters and visual components in a dashboard.""There is room for improvement in terms of documentation and examples, especially for newcomers like me who are learning both business intelligence and Pyramid.""I find that this is quite a heavy, time-consuming tool for developers."

More Pyramid Analytics Cons →

"The solution's setup process could be easier.""The administrative side of Sisense is a little cumbersome and confusing.""This solution does not have tabs. In order to have tabs, you have to download an add-on to mimic the tabs. They should be integrated to improve the solution.""I would like to see more development and growth for the support of Knowledge Base and Community forums.""Larger datasets will sometimes give a "Accumulated logs" error when trying to make minor changes. T""They should improve the filters to create downloaded data by moving them to the top of the dashboard.""I would also like to be able to run a bursts of reports based on different field values with PDF output right in the tool, rather than filtering on each field value and generating each PDF manually.""The initial version we purchased only ran on Windows servers, which was less than ideal for our DevOps team. I believe that has been remedied in the latest release."
