Great BI tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Definitely the visualizations are better than a few other tools I have used. The cubes are easy to build on the elasticube manager and the admin access setup is simple too. I like the Pulse notification feature as you can keep track of certain metrics. Sisense also has great add-ons (free and premium) that can be insightful for a user depending on the industry and use-case.
What do you dislike about the product?
Each version we have upgraded to have had some bug or the other which is fine and expected but in the last few upgrades we had significant bugs that impacted our customer base. The dev team usually rolls over hotfixes onto our installation but 2 of them had no way to be resolved in the same version without the need to upgrade.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly descriptive analytics and reporting for our user base. The ease and simplicity to make frontend changes and publish them is definitely a benefit.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are definitely more mature BI tools out there but there is hope in the new versions of Sisense down the road after reviewing their product roadmap and offerings. The customer success team has been fabulous in terms of communication and resolving issues immediately.

Ease of use, visual appeal, and customization options. Active user community and friendly tech support staff. The ability to make live connections to our AWS environment is a big upside.
What do you dislike about the product?
Upgrades have been destabilizing, requiring help from their support team to get back up and running each time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Sisense to visualize customer data and analysis results, and embed those visuals in our software.

Embedded analytics
What do you like best about the product?
The designer capabilities are very intuitive and their support and account management are very responsive. The onboarding process to use Sisense as an embedded analytics solution included time spent with developers on their end who were very knowledgeable and responsive to our questions and concerns. Active community with lots of plugins, both supported and unsupported.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is complicated to control levels of permissions between full designer and limited viewer. We have many use cases where we wish to give limited designer capabilities and this does not exist out of the box requiring you to modify JS and mongo DBs to create roles for limited design.
