Sisense- User Friendly Tool To Visualize The Data
What do you like best about the product?
Sisense is a user friendly BI tool to represent the data in the form of colorful dashboards.
It is a easy to understand and developer friendly.
We can create the live dashboards or can create the elastic cube based dashboards which can fetch data from multiple data sources.
Third party tools like R and Java Script are also supported in it.
There are various color palettes available and developer can select the one required.
We can create multilevel dependent filters which is a great feature.
Formula Building on UI is another feature which makes Sisense a tool to prefer.
It has the monitor also which allows us to analyze the Sienese performance.

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.

Sisense - A great BI tool
What do you like best about the product?
I have an good exposure on many BI tools. Among all the tools I like the simplicity Sisense provide to the developer\architect. The Sisense Blox and writing Jquery code allows user to customize visualization how they want. The metadata storage on MongoDB is one of the best thing Sisense does. It makes dashboard performance faster and makes data rendering very faster. The Sisense plugins are very helpful in Designing dashboards and showing out of the box functionality in the dashboard. Also, it's easily available in Sisense community.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Sisense administration is not that easy. Its very complicated and takes lot of time for managing the servers. The cube deployment is quite time consuming from Dev to PROD. Also, the logging methodologies are not that good, if some cube fails it's really hard to find the reason behind it and same goes with Server slowness\ dashboard failure. There is no way to manage user other than Sisense Web. I believe there should be some desktop tool to manage users and admin task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Well to answer business questions! But more importantly what benefits its offer to end user is the Simplicity. The look and feel is very simple to the end user who don't need any technical background.
It is very easy to use and very intuitive to understand.

get understanding the models, use small amount of tables and columns and less frequently builds
Visualization made easy by Sisense
What do you like best about the product?
I love the concept an elasticube and the smooth functionality of drag and drop nature of the widgets. Some of the baked-in functions such as pulses, regression forecasting and predictive insights are very helpful and bring reporting to life. Each of our Business heads are very happy the way we publish the dashboard and it's look and feel
What do you dislike about the product?
I found that customization of widgets is a little bit difficult though sisense team provides their great support every time to make things simpler for us. Customization should be more easy and involves less programing. Also a detailed and comprehensive document on how to format widgets, use Sisense approved add-on plug-ins, as well as for troubleshooting issues within the reports.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sisense is basically our prime BI face to the business leaders. We develop lots of reports and dashboards to get valuable insights about unknown scenarios of our business. Over the period of time sisense becomes our first and the only choice to do the analytics in a faster and fashionable way.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are developing/enhancing multiple dashboards according to the business requirement. Developing such valuable dashboards in a short span of time is easy. With Sisense, we can easily build cubes and create reports on top of it. As Sisense comes with the monitor itself the administration task is easy with it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just start developing the dashboard rather than searching for the documentation and tutorials. It is quite easy to learn on our own. You will learn on the go while fulfilling the business user requirement. For users coming from different tools, do not go directly to the advanced feature and usages. Start from Basic dashboards and gradually move to the advanced features at your own pace.
