Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use and seamless integration between data sources. The ease of use of the front end is another great benefit of this tool. There are built-in connectors for almost all mainstream data sources, including, redshift, big hive, facebook, google adwords, google analytics. The web-based dashboards can be accessed from anywhere and are very easy to create. The visualizations and widgets supported by the dashboards are above par as well. Mapping solutions on sisense are still relatively limited but I see Sisense making good progress on that front as well. Overall, it is a great full stack Business intelligence solution that would be very easy to adapt.

Great Customer Support
What do you like best about the product?
We have a complicated embedded implementation and the customer support has been fantastic! Quick to respond and very knowledgeable about the product. The Sisense REST api is very extensive and the plugin architecture allows us to customize almost anything we need.
What do you dislike about the product?
The dashboard scheduling doesn't quite fit our use cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Better BI for our clients and more self service BI options. We have definitely improved our BI offering by implementing Sisense and we plan to continue adding more dashboards and features.
Great Customer Communication Tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Customers can access their data through dashboards that created in an easy to digest, visually pleasing way that makes crunching numbers not quite so boring.
What do you dislike about the product?
It did take a while to get the hang of created widgets / dashboards, but once I got going it was actually easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can let customers see data without letting them inside our firewalls.
Great BI and Fantastic Customer Service
What do you like best about the product?
Sisense is extremely robust and flexible, while remaining intuitive. And when I can't figure something out, Customer Service is able to save the day.
What do you dislike about the product?
My only real complaint is the price, though Sisense really is comparable to other BI tools. Much of what we need is raw data which can be accomplished with Sisense, but where Sisense really shines is aggregates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Beyond just reporting, I have sever users that pull use it as an operational tool. For example, accountants use it to track down identifying numbers when customers won't use the actual invoice number.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sisense is far better at aggregates than raw data, though it can do both.

Efficient, but requires SQL Knowledge
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the speed of Periscope, the ability to create and silo off multiple dashboards, and streamlined redshift sql writing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Without proper monitoring and siloing, it is easy to experience a lot of down/lag time. Periscope also requires SQL knowledge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Periscope is great for SQL analysts to answer data-driven questions and create dashboard for metric tracking.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider if you want to hire analysts with strong SQL skills or if you want a tool for business users.
Very Professional and Supportive staff

A great BI tool
What do you like best about the product?
Incredible customer support and a rich user community with lots of on-line resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not yet web-based multi-user eCube management (coming soon), not quite as rich of a dashboard visualization capability and fine-control as Tableau (but improving), some limitations on Excel file import format require pre-import formatting (improvements coming I hear).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to pull and visualize business data and drill down into finding root causes for certain effects. This has allowed us to more quickly make better decisions, discover impacts of any business changes, and better understand/uncover drivers. As a direct result, we have improved manufacturing velocity and quality while also improving planning and inventory management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good BI is difficult, make sure to select a BI platform with excellent customer and professional services -- you'll likely need it no matter what platform you select.
