What do you like best about the product?
SiSense has an API-first approach that makes integrating their product a breeze for our development team. Hearing real-world experiences from other customers. Getting to meet key SiSense employees. The SiSense team listened well and effectively engaged.
What do you dislike about the product?
The venue for the breakout sessions made for a noisy discussion. Maybe have more separation between the breakout teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
OEM embedded analytics: Providing deep and rapid insights into patterns and variances that exist in our customer environments.

Excellent Customer Focus - Great Value in Bringing Visualization to Data Sets

  • May 08, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Sisense is very usable. I was up and running with my data the same day. Dashboards are very easy to setup and you don't need to be and IT expert in order to do it!
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few issues that I have encountered, but the support team has been great to work with. Problems have been resolved or work around found.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Sisense to replace existing manual processes for reporting. We have been able to take processes that used to be 30 days after the fact to near real time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make the call and install the demo, you won't regret it.

Simple, Yet Powerful With Unparalleled Support Team

  • February 03, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The periscope support team is the best support team for any SaaS product. When I worked with competitor products, such as Tableau, I knew there was a lot of functionality but figuring out how to actually use specific features and reading through all the Tableau "hacks" was a slog. With periscope, I can have a half-formed thought about what I want to do and the support team will come back to me with multiple alternatives and live, step-by-step instructions. I think the quality of the support team is key to making periscope great because periscope does have limited functionality compared to some of its more established competitors -- but having people to guide you through hacks to simulate more complex features makes up for that limited functionality.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think periscope is an excellent tool for making monitoring dashboards, but it falls short for data exploration. I don't think periscope is specifically marketed as a competitor to Tableau and others for data exploration, so that's okay -- but obviously I would prefer it if periscope was a one-stop solution to analytics needs. Specifically, working with multiple filters and playing around with different dimensions is easier in a tool like Tableau.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use periscope to make dashboards for product and engineering teams to monitor their KPIs. Periscope's simplicity allows me to iterate quickly and this has helped get product and engineering more excited about using data to make decisions.

We run our business on Periscope

  • January 20, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We can spin up dashboards for every part of our business, making us the most metrics-driven company in our industry. Incredibly powerful to be able to visualize all data about every transaction we ever manage on our platform.

Because it's so easy to make these dashboards, we actually do a lot of our work like managing checklists for compliance, reviewing sales pipelines, tracking quota progress, etc right in Periscope. Super easy to pipe salesforce data in as well to manage our own data coming out of our app.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far nothing, we could not survive as a company without Periscope Data at this point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We manage almost every aspect of our company in this app.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's better (more flexible, faster, more powerful) and cheaper than Looker, Tableau, Domo, or any competing product.

Sisense has helped CTSI increase sales and customer data satisfaction

  • December 28, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of implementation and multiple levels of security enabled us to be able to quickly deploy to customers in our multi-tennant environment. Novice users can easily create dashboards with just a basic understanding of the data sets. The interface works almost as a wizard for adding useful KPI. From a technical standpoint, product owner with a technical BA background is able to maintain the application and customer deployments with little intervention from IT resources. Sisence listens to their user base as is evident with some of the changes coming in newer releases are the result of requests we have made
What do you dislike about the product?
Ownership of a dashboard object is very tightly coupled to the owner. IT is difficult for system admins to discover dashboards created by other users
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Business problems
BI and reporting of customers data
Modern reporting tool
BI and reporting of internal data

Benefits:
Major selling point for our customers
Ability to provide BI for data that has previously not been available for

Super easy... yet Super Powerful!!!

  • December 28, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We had previously implemented another analytics product without success. Not only was it extrememly difficult to get implemented and integrated with our system(s), making changes to existing dashboards or creating new dashboards had to be handled by a developer. With Sisense, not only were the dashboards super easy to create and modify, but building the cubes was something I was able to do without the need of development assistance. Hands down the best investment we've made!!!
What do you dislike about the product?
We had some questions during employment that required the purchased support pack. It took two weeks to get a scheduled meeting with the applicant person in support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were interested in providing advanced sales and pipeline analysis for our customers. Adding Sisense has helped us enhance customer loyalty and drive increased sales.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommended.

Amazing

  • December 14, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's full stack BI in one product (and does it the best - also reviewed inferior Birst and Qlik)
Fast, easy to use, feature-rich
Automatically created REST API on any data brought into the backend of Sisense
Dashboards and reports are all interactive and embeddable
Clean sleek design and report appearance
Built in D3 and fully customizable via javascript
What do you dislike about the product?
They're partially based in Israel, so some of the support techs don't speak English as their first language. (still not as bad as other foreign support personnel)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Rebuilding our data warehouse, business intelligence, ETL, and reporting platforms

This product is single-handedly replacing a myriad of products and business complexity in our organization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Full stack BI (ETL, DW, and reporting in one) is a new concept in the BI field. Birst, Qlik, Sisense, and Cloud9 are the only products I know of that accomplish this in some way. We reviewed all and POC tested Birst, Qlik and Sisense. Sisense absolutely ran circles around the competition in terms of their capabilities, features, speed and ease of use. For us reviewers, the choice was a no contest.

Sisense is truly the next generation of BI tools

  • November 29, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Sisense has given us the ability to grow and scale our business 10x without the need for additional license add-ons or costs. We have successfully merged 17 different data sources into a single source of truth that provides unparalleled insights into our business. It's allow us to snapshot critical data that shows us the life cycle of a customer and make intelligent predictions that drive change to our business model.
Our BI Portal gives direct access and visibility into real-time performance metrics for coaching and performance improvement.
What do you dislike about the product?
Missing some desired visualizations

IOS app needs work
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sisense is being used in our organization to:
•Get better insight into the data we already have
•Automate time consuming and labor intensive reports
•Eliminate error prone reporting, multiple spreadsheets, no audit trails etc…
•Create a centralized data warehouse and portal for all levels of the company.
•More time in analysis state than data collection
•Clear business driven BI Dashboards to allow executive level management to make clear
educated decisions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Lots of BI vendors can promise you the world, instead of listening to a talk-track, download the Sisense client and connect your data sources and see your yourself. There is a lot to be said about a tool that will do everything you need even during the demo stages.
