Ease of use - Combine different sources of information
What do you like best about the product?
Sisense can feed several data sets into one internal location, which includes all my connections. Sisense does have a web interface that is really good and simple to use. Group users can build basic analytics together. they always bring new functionality to Sisense. The help from Sisense is fantastic; they always respond in a reasonable time and can contribute most of them to completing any task. Super customizable with multiple modeling and interface solutions for writing scripts. Sisense's main features seem to be the potential to personalize the details that you choose to display. This is one of the finest I've used as a monitoring platform
What do you dislike about the product?
The frequency of indexing tables - especially pivot tables could be increased. Tricky security protocols have caused updating to newer versions. The graphics can be improved and I would like tabs through several rows to be resized.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To provide our clients with a visualization layer to gain practical perspectives from the results. Enables organizations to design dashboards directly to make them understand the ways on how they are improved. Sisense invests on its web Linux system, which is really good.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make absolutely sure that you have all the tools to integrate the data sets needed. also Be sure that it suits your needs because after building your cube, you cannot modify the data sets , you will have to restart the process. Integrating data to a data cube makes access to all required data sources convenient and safe.
We are using Sisense with success for months now. Very powerful product !

What do you like best about the product?
No doubt that must be integration. We are able to integrate Sisense with our systems thanks to its API, enabling us to automate all this process and giving us all flexibility we need.
What do you dislike about the product?
Releasing changing to cubes from different environments I think it's still very tricky. However, it seems a new feature has been released to Linux systems to tackle this issue. Looking forward to getting this for Windows systems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are exploiting data we collect in out website, that otherwise was very difficult to convert into something meaningful.
Great analytic tool for sharing insights

Smart features like count unique, probability formulas incorporated - Sisense can do so much more than Excel Pivot tables and so much easier to share with remote workers
What do you dislike about the product?
Minor things like not being able to sort by columns names in pivot tables
When you update a formula it doesn't update everywhere that formula is saved
JDBC connection is slow when pulling in big data

Sometimes it take some time to have the support team to help. But the quality of the support is always of the highest proficiency level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

What do you dislike about the product?
* When experiencing build failures based on the elasticube modeling, it's hard to identify what caused the failure based on the server logs.
* There's no option to send reports to emails of non-users & no option to send a report in a CSV/Excel format.
* The pulses/ alerts offer minimal modifications after creation and require creating a pulse for each source separately (in case you have multiple sources and you want to alert when a specific threshold is met).

Advanced BI tool with a unique performance supporting feature.
What do you like best about the product?
When cube is set an ready. The dashboarding experience is pure pleasure. There is a great variety of widgets to choose and build powerful visualizations. Sisense has created a big community where people can share tips and tricks. There is a possibility to build your own plugins or re-use the ones provided by other users of Sisense.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you do not store your data daily then the date aggregation becomes troublesome. The interface sometimes glitches. Minor issues with the widget setup - auto-scaling sometimes fails when you use different chart types (combo charts). Building cubes requires some experience. It is not intuitive and your structured query language knowledge might not be of any big help. Sisense develops application fast but it sometimes backfires with upgrades that brings some unexpected behaviour.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The great thing about Sisense is that it suits both reporting and analytics purpouse. We use Sisense to report on a high-level but also to provide possibility to drill down to the root-cause of the problem. Hopefully our customers will use Pulse and Alerting feature which is a great addition to any reporting tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for an embedded BI solution, Sisense should be your top consideration. There might be an issue with supporting hundreds of millions of records without a standalone BI optimized database. However, if your data sets are smaller than that Sisense is probably the most cost efficient solution. Apart from the niche
