The dashboard design interface is very intuitive and allows you to quickly and easily produce professional, innovative dashboards.
ElastiCube Manager allows you to combine multiple data sources and add additional fields and tables with ease. It gives you the power of ETL and data modeling in one easy to use tool.
View full review »- Build speed of large data sets.
- The ability to share metrics with our entire organization.
It's really user friendly and fast. I can use the product during customer meetings, not only to show dashboards, but to create and process data analytics in real-time. It's perfect for consultant workshops where you can't work with static dashboards. Also, because it has an HTML5 interface, it now looks very good when compared to BI solutions that haven't evolved since Windows XP.
View full review »Time to deployment was one of our most critical factors in choosing a BI vendor, and I am not sure you can get to deployment faster than Sisense. On day one, I was able to download it, connect two disparate data sources with multiple tables, and build meaningful dashboards.
Other features that I found very valuable:
Query Speed: Querying a data source with more than 180 million records took on average less than 5 seconds after initial load.
Speed of Development: It took less than a month to configure single- sign on, be fully embedded within our web product, and to build a comprehensive data cube that covered all of our metrics.
Ease of use for end-users: Building meaningful dashboards is no longer an IT task. Sisense has done a great job at not over complicating dashboard building
The best features of Sisense are the user-friendly interface and ability to deploy efficiently.

The most valuable thing I have found is the ability for Sisense to connect data from totally different sources. I can connect an Oracle table with an Excel document, an Access document and a ODBC MySql table, and quickly merge them all and get fast answers. Also, the ability to quickly change data types on the fly so as to match primary keys etc. Great tool.
View full review »Sisense's documentation and video tutorials were thorough and helpful in starting off with the basic usage of the product. Connecting data sources and creating a dashboard with a couple reports was a breeze.
Given the limited company resources, we were looking for a Business Intelligence Tool that would be fast to set up and use by everyone in the company, from Product to Sales. For the price point, this tool is on par with many other BI tools out there. I also appreciate the fact that Sisense is constantly improving on the product, adding new features and providing detailed documentation on the changes and updates.
View full review »We found the ease of use to be our primary factor for choosing Sisense. We have a client that changes their mind often and their business is moving very quickly (what clients don't live under these conditions)? We needed to bring them a tool that could be learned and then deployed easily without a lot of technical expertise.
The other "feature" we experienced in the buying process was Sisense's response time, materials that accurately answered our questions, and great sales support - access to experts within the company when we needed them.

- Rich integration features
- High customizability
- ODBC feature allows unsupported data sources (when drivers are available)
- Customizations features enable user interface modification (for someone who knows JavaScript)
It has a very easy-to-use interface and we are able to create custom tables and fields that allow us do advanced analytics.
View full review »Of course, all the visualization tools of the web interface are one of the things Sisense does best.
But also, the custom tables from the backend of Sisense is one of the most powerful feature of the software. It allows you to clean your data and prepare a frame for less experimented users to work with through the web interface.
View full review »The Sisense data cube allows us to execute heavy, complex computations on the fly so customers can slice and dice the data based on their business needs. The visualizations are adequate and the support from their team has been outstanding. 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.
