Visually Appealing, Fast, and Intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
Sisense is a great choice for organizations that want to manage data models centrally and perform all modeling and dashboard development in a web-based environment. Sisense dashboards are very fast and the experience for "view only" users is very intuitive. I find it to be the most visually appealing option among the top modern BI visualization platforms. The drill-down functionality is far better than the competition.
What do you dislike about the product?
While seemingly any function is possible within Sisense, many things need to be done with plug-ins or javascript. Some of the top competition has invested in more advanced functions built into the application, which makes it easier for non-technical users to develop dashboards with minimal IT assistance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sisense is being used as our primary data visualization tool throughout the company. We implemented Sisense in parallel with a new Data Warehouse to create a single source of truth for all departments and eliminate costly and error-prone manual reporting efforts. It has created efficiencies in the reporting processes throughout the company, exposed data quality issues, and provided actionable insights that should lead to increased revenue.
Periscope Data provides table stakes access to data
What do you like best about the product?
While lacking many of the features of larger more complex and expensive products. Periscope data unlocks basic queries against data stores. In a small team the complexity / feature tradeoff is pretty ideal.
What do you dislike about the product?
As the organization grows and data workflows and dashboards proliferate the lack of
* source control
* staging environment
* data source curation
start to slow and interfere with data operations

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?
We with digital marketing folks use dashboards numbers to measure our performance basis organic, purchased traffic and the probable reason of any loss. Dashboards helps product managers to conclude among different A/B tests and experiments. Also finance guys use to derive different sort of analysis.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
More visualizations, Plugins
Still getting up and running

What do you dislike about the product?
The whitelabel documentation is very confusing, it's taking us a lot longer than anticipated to get this working.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Implementing Sisense
What do you like best about the product?
We are in the middle of transitioning from Xcelsius and Tableau dashboarding platforms to Sisense. The Sisense employees are always very responsive and knowledgeable about the product and how to help us through the implementation. We plan to complete the implementation by the end of the year. I will do a more detailed review in a few months!
What do you dislike about the product?
Formatting for a table in our dashboard took a lot more time than expected. It's not as easy as formatting a table in Excel! It required knowledge of java script and took our Sisense trainer a while to complete. We will have to replicate this process for future tables in our dashboards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We will be using Sisense to share our performance with our customers as well as for them to do what if analysis.
BI for Everyone
What do you like best about the product?
Sisense proved to me that a BI platform, Dashboards and Analycs can be implemented by anyone even with little experience in BI as I did. With an Excellent on boarding process and excelent support from additional parties as required, we managed not only to have most of the data integrated and shown in dashboards. management are able to see insights of the business that was not possible before.
What do you dislike about the product?
When there is a need for real BI consultant (not only support) after the on boarding stage, it is more difficult to get that with sisense. There may be a need to go to additional Sisense partner.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fast and easy visibility of the Machines productivity. Being able to see who are the leading customers and satisfied ones, all in one click. Surprising insight that one pricing model wasnt as beneficial as expcted when it was modeled.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The On boarding and setup time as well as the on going customer success partnership are excellent. The only disappointment is the fact that when needing some high level BI consultancy, we will need to find an additional BI consultant company specializing in sisense to help support the high level modeling and how to structure future ECs
