Great BI tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Definitely the visualizations are better than a few other tools I have used. The cubes are easy to build on the elasticube manager and the admin access setup is simple too. I like the Pulse notification feature as you can keep track of certain metrics. Sisense also has great add-ons (free and premium) that can be insightful for a user depending on the industry and use-case.
What do you dislike about the product?
Each version we have upgraded to have had some bug or the other which is fine and expected but in the last few upgrades we had significant bugs that impacted our customer base. The dev team usually rolls over hotfixes onto our installation but 2 of them had no way to be resolved in the same version without the need to upgrade.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly descriptive analytics and reporting for our user base. The ease and simplicity to make frontend changes and publish them is definitely a benefit.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are definitely more mature BI tools out there but there is hope in the new versions of Sisense down the road after reviewing their product roadmap and offerings. The customer success team has been fabulous in terms of communication and resolving issues immediately.

I do not like to cubes. These are difficult to connect and make sure you have all the correct relationships. If you are not able to connect the cubes correctly, then you cannot see the data that you want it.

We work with hospitals and I am looking at data such as turnaround time and utilization. These are the big things that we look at

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of implementing out-of-the-box formulas. Using ElastiCube is seamless in both creating new connections, creating custom queries, and creating custom relationships within the ECM.

There is some difficulty in formatting table/pivot table views, but nothing that is a severe roadblock in reporting. The overall pivot table functionality is extremely useful.

Ensure that you have the resources to set up integration to necessary data sources.

What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see ESRI Out of the box widget
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sisense BI gave the visibility for the whole department in customer service, revenues and expenses and how the individual programs were doing. Helped to discontinue the programs which were not utilized. Our Executive Team really likes the dashboards and the tool
Great tool for insight into a wide range of figures
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to see data at a glance. thank you
What do you dislike about the product?
The expertise needed for connecting data
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a wide range of locations and activities. SiSense helped us coordinate all of that data into one place, have it updated in almost real-time and share that data with our team. This is the first time in our business that information has been reached as easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You need at least one or more dedicated technical resources to help you implement the tool. Once your data is connected the design of new dashboards can be learned over time.
Compelling BI offering and great company
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Sisense since 2016 and every time we compare it to other services we stay put.
The level of flexibility and ease of deployment makes Sisense both compelling to use and also cost-effective to operate.
Also, the level of support we get from the company goes beyond the normal levels you expect from a vendor. They have always gone the extra mile for us.

What do you dislike about the product?
While the dashboard UIX and graphics are very good for the BI professional and internal clients, if you need very high-level imagery for external clients additional work is required.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Sisense both internally and externally for our research clients.
Internally we have managed to better run our ops and logistics by building customized dashboards servicing our various stakeholders.
We also use Sisese for high-end research using multiple and changing data types and source, building and deploying cubes a new for every research project.

I would work closely with the Sisense team, I have found them to be bullshit-free and focused on helping us succeed.
Fast, Innovative tool with Top-notch customer service
What do you like best about the product?
Easy implementation from connecting data, building cube and creating dashboard. Within a few weeks our dashboards were up and running. The customer support is amazing, top notch!!
What do you dislike about the product?
The PDF printing, to be able to change the format. Sometimes the plugins don't work, and I need to disable and then reenable them. Would be helpful if there was a way to download data from the elasticubes rather than build a widget for the data you want to look at.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Advanced modelling and optimising performance. Sisense has helped me to automate and save tremendous critical amount of time. Before implementing Sisense, it took days to make sense out of data to identify trends making us reactive rather than proactive. Now we can identify trends on the fly and are proactive!!
Sisense is a great partner and a great BI Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Sisense has gone above and beyond to work closely with our company to integrate BI directly into our application. The support and customer service from the Sisense team has been immaculate. The platform has allowed us a great level of customization in terms of visualization and back end architecture.
What do you dislike about the product?
Permissioning users and groups to multiple dashboards is not easily done without making an API call.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Sisense we have been able to empower our customers that help them make data-driven decisions. Internally, Sisense's intuitive setup and application has allowed a small team to manage the end to end process for BI and analytics.
