Outperformed our expectations
What do you like best about the product?
user friendly tutorials; organizational guidance; our training guru Yuri was amazing; the whole team of James, Yuri and Jan were able to help us push until we got what we needed and then get us to what we wanted
What do you dislike about the product?
initial help desk response was lacking in depth and understanding
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
clean, effective communication without each user having to become a dashboard operations expert; offer our internal and external users point and click analysis and reporting; we all see the same view so communicate to the same information; adaptable to tablet and phone allowing us to give the user a more precise view; alerts offer timely notices to so users can get ahead of issues; we figured out we could offer more to all users just by adding some widget filters making the dashboard even easier than expected to use
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We chose Sisense in order to have a simple way to present information to our clients that didn't require any one on our team to become a full-time IT operative. We created a straight forward dashboard that met our needs but, when we were ready to make it more sophisticated, it only took some plugins (from the Sisense library) and some help with SQL script. Just as important as ease of use, the key to any dashboards success is organization. It's worth the time to take advantage of the Sisense planning documents and goal setting process. This is something to be aware of because some providers expect you to handle all planning and then teach mechanics only.
Really good choice for web-based dashboarding tool
What do you like best about the product?
Periscope is at the top of web based dashboarding tools. Easy to use, has enough customization, and it has lots of little features that make a big difference. Being able to save SQL snippets and use them across dashboards is helpful. Having the ability to automatically email reports, or alert you if there is data issues detected is valuable.
What do you dislike about the product?
No major complaints for Periscope. It makes dashboarding quick & easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a centralized and automated solution for data analytics dashboards.
So simple yet so powerful
What do you like best about the product?
Going from nothing to a setup that will give you great looking dashboards and new insights literally takes an hour or two. Their API first approach that let's us use the platform in all kinds of ways and integrate easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
I miss a few features that would be nice. Versioning of components (like dashboards) for example. I'm not too concerned though. The product is evolving with new features in an impressive way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Interactive analytics and embedded BI for our existing software. The first one is realized and we're making great progress with the latter one.

What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have anything specifically, At times we face random issues accessing dashboards over which we are already in conversation with SiSense team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Initially Heavy Dashboards ( more numbers of widgets) took time to load the data , now latest version (upgraded) it has made it easier to load entire dashboard with high widgets quickly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
yes , sisesne is great tool for Visualization
Makes Business Intelligence and analytics accessible for everyone
What do you like best about the product?
Really easy to use. We've been using SiSense for a few years and even without any particularly technical people involved at our end we find it straightforward to create a variety of powerful reports that fuse together data from a number of different sources to give us really useful insights that we wouldn't be to be able to get using other tools. Managing data and building dashboards is intuitive and feature-rich, and the data security features are incredibly useful for making sure end users are seeing the data they should be seeing (and sometimes more importantly, not seeing the data that they shouldn't!). Customer support are incredibly responsive and helpful and there is a huge amount of support material available online.
What do you dislike about the product?
On the (rare) occasions when there are problems, the error messages are often unhelpful. They're either too vague and we don't know where to start looking or so specific and technical that they might as well be in Greek. This is somewhat mitigated by the quality of the Customer Support who usually solve these problems for us promptly, but there have been times when we could have solved it ourselves if the error message had been more understandable.
There is a mobile app, which does work as described but the experience is often unsatisfying and could definitely be improved.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the support material. There is a real wealth of information in the tutorials, webinars and the community forums.
Spending time on planning during (or even before) the implementation stage can save a lot of time later, particularly with the data models.

What do you dislike about the product?
Missing a few critical connectors (e.g. Teradata)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been using Sisense for quite sometime mainly for dashboard purpose where one can view their company’s performance updated in the real time. One stand out feature is that it can process huge data from different sources like a boss. We can also create our own columns in the sisense database(ElastiCube) using SQL commands. It is definitely one of the best intelligence product in the current market.
Best in the Industry
What do you like best about the product?
Sisense enables users to put together data from different data sources very easily. With the built in widgets and the use of javascript helps users to customize any dashboard they want. Dashboard preparation does not take long and using filters is not confusing with respect to competitors.
What do you dislike about the product?
The speed of builds are slow when there are lots of builds at the same time. But you can get around that with the API they provide. If there was support besides Windows Sisense would work more efficiently while building cubes and distributing data from the server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The benefits of Sisense is that we can easily share information to internal customers in seconds. The use of their API has enabled us to automate builds within a schedule. This helps us to maintain a smooth workflow to provide information within the company without any delays.
Great experience
What do you like best about the product?
The onboarding process was really good.
I very much appreciate the customer support and the ongoing talks we have to see how it is going and how things can be improved.

What do you dislike about the product?
I do not particularly dislike anything: the new web elastic cube will take some time to get used to, but it will be ok.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A lot of excel sheets have been replaced. Automation of email lists and dashboards for business analysis made everything much more manageable and fast.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Keep things simple. It's easier to manage a greater number of small ec than a smaller number of big ones
A Sisense beginner
What do you like best about the product?
Sisense is more streamlined than other tools we performed proof of concepts on. The core customer support and trainers have been very friendly and supportive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes support is unclear in their instructions and expects a more advanced knowledge of how to integrate their product into our system when we have never integrated a BI tool before.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have multiple data sources and sets that need managed and combined for reporting. Sisense has helped with quick and accurate reporting. Another benefit is that Sisense has helped us find which data sets are accurate and which need to be fixed.
Sisense has helped manage big data sets and get valuable visuals and identify trends.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ease in which you can bring multiple data sets together and get meaningful insights.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not have any real dislikes but the product Sisense offers is evolving all of the time so i would say it would be limited visuals but this becoming less relevant.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
one of the many problems was cross analysing google analytics data with real time sales from none ecom sources based on leads generated but Sisense has helped achieve this.
