Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable aspect for me is having real-time data.""The tool's interface is easy to use. The functions listed as a part of the menu items are easy to use.""Sigma is a great software for non-technical business users. If someone's familiar with pivot tables or Excel or Google Sheets, they should be able to pick up Sigma pretty quickly. There is a very low bar for onboarding."

It is a very stable solution.""Support is very responsive and clearly one of the strengths of Sisense. I have always received a fast response and the staff is very helpful.""A very simple setup: Easy to download, install, and updates are pain free.""The most valuable thing I have found is the ability for Sisense to connect data from totally different sources."

Cons
"The only minor area for improvement lies in handling highly complex visualizations.""I would like to see better visualization options. That would allow me to build out more visually pleasing dashboarding in Sigma.""The product's roadmap regarding introducing new features in the solution or new versions of the tool can be made better in the future."

More Sigma Cons →

"I would love to have more customization capabilities for building dashboards, especially in creating custom widget sizes.""I would like Sisense to improve its performance, particularly when we are dealing with large-scale data.""Larger datasets will sometimes give a "Accumulated logs" error when trying to make minor changes. T""The solution's setup process could be easier.""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.""I would like to see more development and growth for the support of Knowledge Base and Community forums.""At present there are additional costs involved if we wish to share our data queues within this solution, which we would like to see removed."
