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
Very good software, easy to embed, has most of BI functionality one would need for complex analysis
What do you like best about the product?
Most of the operations can be done via API. Fast on a medium size data set. More less anything you need with regards to BI functionality
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a room to improve in the areas of administration and governance, support for OEM business and visualizations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are embedding Sisense as OEM into our product. With that we are empowering our own solution with the analytics and advanced BI functionality
Recommendations to others considering the product:
While some functionality is missing, I strongly recommend to use Sisense - good and easy to use software with good roadmap
Very good visualization tool for tracking and sharing business KPIs
What do you like best about the product?
The visualization possibilities and the design and design options
What do you dislike about the product?
The lack of a better dashboard folder system to use with the end users (a star option to collect the most useful dashboard on user level, a better and more intuitive search function). The front end lack of a dynamic parameter creation (also for filtering, for example switching from one dimension or KPI to another on filter level).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Unification of data into one single data architecture. Sisense is helping unifying data coming from different products (different sources) into one single CUBE and model it accordingly to present it as one. Sharing and presenting data in a very clear design for different company units and departments.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it takes lot of time to load the dashboards and have bad user experience.
If a dashboards is not being used by any of the user then its cube still consumes the memory which increases the overall memory consumption and hence the load time.
Customization of widgets is not so great in Sisense.
Few of the analytical functions like First_value() and last_value() is not present in the Sisense .
It has been observed that the cube of dashboards gets unshared with the user and dashboards get error out. We have to reshare the cube with the user again.
