Sisense gives you the best alternatives in the visualization and analysis control
What do you like best about the product?
Sinsense is an incredible tool that allows me to simplify the analysis of my equipment and process information much faster. In addition to being able to share new ideas with my team. And also to provide a good service to my customers by implementing the best data from different sources.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is essential to present an improvement in mobile support because navigations require better function and it is quite beneficial.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Sisense in our organization so that it facilitates an analysis of data to empower our customers due to the great ease of use it provides. And that is how it allows us to create Boards and GAP Analysis.

Really Sisense is great for different companies that need an interface like this, because it allows them to integrate with different data sources and obtain satisfactory results.
Sisense has enabled us to gain insight into our data

The visualizations and ease of use are the best features
What do you dislike about the product?
Limitations on join types in the Elasticubes, and limited report scheduling capabilities

We are using Sisense to track our monthly progress toward pre-defined business objectives and offering our users insights into business trends and anomolies
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Quick start-up time and some of the best visualizations I've seen in a BI tool. Dashboard designing is easy and looks slick and modern. Ability to add plug-ins to enable a multitude of cool features is a plus.
Sinsense ventures into the great world of BI
What do you like best about the product?
I like the Sinsense platform because it offers a fast, accurate and very useful customer service, its updates are annual, and web-based scripts allow unlimited customization. I also love that I can combine data from different sources.
What do you dislike about the product?
For me a great disadvantage of this platform is that the permissions are difficult, only the owner of the folders can publish any changes, on the other hand the cubes become slow once their data grows, and the administrators at present cannot edit Other people's panels.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This platform offers great benefits within which we can mention the internal analysis of all business units, as well as integrated customer-oriented reports. We solve many commercial problems related to the supply chain.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We recommend this platform because it requires minimal supervision and compression of the database. It also fits for companies without big data, since no additional staff is needed to package and display the data in a digestible format.
Great BI tool with good implementation and constant support.
What do you like best about the product?
Sisense is easy to install and configure. It is easy to use, both in data modeling and in the design aspects of the board. It is the perfect tool to quickly configure value-added panels and begin your shift towards understanding your data. It helps me to make sure I have the right data for panel designers. It also has excellent customer service and ensures that organizations make the most of their investment.
What do you dislike about the product?
Regardless of the problem we face, however large or small, each of them has been addressed. The Sisense team did an amazing job analyzing each problem. Which means I have no dislikes with this tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sisense is used in the organization, both to view the internal data of our accounting software and for the aggregated data collected from our software solutions implemented worldwide. For our executive and internal sales team, it addresses the visibility of sales figures and trends. For our product managers, it provides information about the use of our software and the needs that may arise. For external purposes, we provide reports to our customer base about your personal use of the system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sisense is very suitable for many small and medium sized businesses as long as the data is not too large. We use it to analyze sales, active versus canceled subscriptions, use of functions in our software, etc. For big data it becomes a problem
Easier to use than expected even with little to no SQL experience
What do you like best about the product?
Once onboarded and in the tool, it is very easy to navigate. I also like the visibility into the data and what the programming is doing. Some other tools we used I felt like I lost visibility and it was very hard to QC that what I wanted to do was actually being done correctly. Sisense does a great job at allowing the user to be able to get insights very clearly into what is happening on the backend to QC on the frontend.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like some more formatting features on the dashboard; minor things like fonts, being able to bold, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Sisense to do Client Response Analysis. This analysis was almost impossible to do on a recurring basis because it took so long to do offline and manually. We are now able to take a report that would take 3-4 days to update it in 15 minutes. We are seeing more accuracy and a ton of time savings.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you have the time to spend during implementation and onboarding. If you put the time in upfront the ease of use comes quickly. We had to start and stop a lot due to scheduling and work load and it made the learning curve take longer than it probably should have. Now that we're in the tool on a daily basis it does not feel intimidating or cumbersome.
Great for data teams
What do you like best about the product?
Periscope is great for people who know how to write SQL and have their data in tabular format. It allows you to write SQL queries and directly make them into charts rather than the Tableau and Looker approach of having proprietary abstractions from the SQL code.
Anyone who knows how to write SQL will be able to use Periscope very quickly.

What do you dislike about the product?
The actual Periscope dashboards are relatively basic but you can use different Python/R packages to make different kinds of charts.
Also, if you have a lot of people who do not know SQL but want to explore the tabular data themselves, this is probably not the tool for you because the "Data Discovery" tool is very basic. Not sure how it compares to other products in that regard but it is definitely not as good as Thoughtspot.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Periscope for basically all data analytics and reporting. The "Periscope cache" is very useful because it basically acts as a mini data warehouse, allowing you to join disparate data sources. Also, the UI is great. It makes making materialized SQL views very easy and straightforward. Also, the customer support is great.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If your data team needs a tool use Periscope. If you have picky business users who don't write SQL, you'll need something else.
Product Manager
What do you like best about the product?
easy to use, very self explanatory, and templates are useful to create fast dashbaords
What do you dislike about the product?
Even though the dashboards are easy to use, their is no flexibility to customizing the view of a dashboard, i feel like there is too much open space especially when you are trying to create 2-3 KPI side by side, and the fonts are very limited function, therefore in some cases the difference between one number to the next is off.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
being able to create graphics to better explain the data in a summarized way
Intuitive Yet Robust
What do you like best about the product?
I like that the Cubes & Dashboards can be as complicated as you like. If it's a simple calculation - I can have a dashboard put together in an hour. If I want to spend time and build something very specific using SQL, I can also do that. I haven't seen a program before that has both functionalities - out of the box use and super-customizable options. The add-ons are endless - any thing you could imagine. The ability to code ontop of the dashboards has potential once I learn javascript.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does have some technical problems every once and a while. Usually logging out & back in solves it.
The install team had issues getting the software correctly installed and running with our production tables.
Some add-ons stop working repeatedly.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am providing metrics and tracking for other depts as to their KPIs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
They provide a trial version where they connect a trial version of their software to our own data - really helpful to see exactly how well it works and practice around for a few days. The on-boarding and training was conducted thoroughly and well.
Expert overview to get all business data in one view
What do you like best about the product?
The slick UI and simple integrations that saves you time and implemenetation cost.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support could be a bit faster to reply but that is a minimal issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Better overview and insights have led us to improve business and finally increase rev.
Great BI solution for your business
What do you like best about the product?
Sisense helped us develop dashboards that showcase all the data we have in a meaningful way for our business. We love the degree of customization and connectivity between our CRM and other platforms we use. This tool saves us from manually building our reports and saves us so much time. Being able to share the information across our organization is a big win.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I dislike about Sisense but I would definitely like to see more options in terms of customer experience data. Sisense is very good on quantitative data but I'd like to see dashboards that could showcase qualitative data and trends to provide customer insight to the business.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Sisense we no longer have to manually build our reports. Now that the data is all configured to appear the way we need it in our dashboards, we spend less time manipulating the data and more time analyzing it to improve our performance and provide insights to the business! It is also easier to share the data within our organization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sisense is a great product. Make sure your data is clean before building your dashboards and it will help your business for sure!
