Amazingly powerful and efficient
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to have access to raw data without delay. The charts are clean and easy to produce. Python and R functionality enables you to make more complex graphs and do more sophisticated analysis than raw SQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how hard it is to move charts within a dashboard. If you have to rearrange sections of dashboards, it takes minutes of scrolling and shifting the reordering window. I suggest adding functionality to be able to move groups of charts together.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Periscope fulfills our reporting needs, analytical needs, and enables us to have a clearer picture of product performance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The caching feature makes the platform incredibly fast. That along is a selling point.

Ease of implementation
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use. Our previous BI provider gave us 90 days notice they were closing their doors. We were able to get a dashboard up quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software meets our needs, not many complaints

Data to insight
What do you like best about the product?
The people, from the sales team to the support team, are excellent.
The product is great, overall it gives you a lot of leverage on your data over using other solutions, you can have a dashboard ready within a couple of hours, that for us is a killer feature, enabling our business to react more quickly to the dynamics of the industry, and to dive more deeply into the great amount of data we ingest.
Periscope takes a lot of care on security measures, so you can be assured that your data is safe.
If you get bigger, you can have your own Redshift cluster managed by Periscope, wich is in great help, because you don't need to hire IT people or move away from your core business.

What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly nothing so far.
We have a little thing with the pricing structure, but ant the end it's still affordable anyways once you know how to bring more value to your business with better data and better insights

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting insights faster on our data, quicker iterations and an awesome flexibility for the nontechnical users using the datasets.
More speed and reliability, having our reporting/insights platform decoupled from our main stack, running on a slave database, and that improves the speed on our stack.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
You need to take some time in order to evaluate if your business needs to be heavily data-driven.
If not, then this is not the tool for you.

Great data analytics tool - not the best design
What do you like best about the product?
We used Periscope Data for internal data analytics within a lot of our departments. In my department, we used it to keep track of customer subscriptions and customer professional service resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
Creating custom data charts was a bit complicated, and the look and feel (design) of Periscope was not great. It was laggy sometimes, but that may have been because it was pulling data from Salesforce.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using data to perform data-driven decisions. Utilizing data to determine hiring needs, potential problems or shortcomings of a department or specific team member, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely play around with it and get to know its features. You may be surprised at what sort of analytics you can do on your data.
Superb Tool
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to run analysis in Python 2, 3, and R. Documentation for Redshift and Periscope is very well written, and their customer service team is top notch.
What do you dislike about the product?
The SQL learning curve is steep, very steep.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Providing automated reports to our management team frees up a ton of time for myself personally. The ability to run high end analytics, and not just display data, will allow us to take Waitr to the next level.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend Periscope to any company using a microservice architecture specifically for the ability to have all your databases in one place with the ability to add new views across said db's.
Great experience.
What do you like best about the product?
Their assistance individuals are effective, expert, knowledgable, and simply good individuals. There have actually been obstacles as we press the limitations of performance, however assistance from both the sisense assistance and the sisense neighborhood individuals has actually enabled us to press through those obstacles. Sisense has a important and exceptionally helpful item today, and I anticipate seeing the item roadmap pertained to truth.
What do you dislike about the product?
The item does not have the capability to see it's own functional metrics on a control panel. When you export a control panel into an image it does not look too great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We required a service for our consumer website that supported a high level of information security, was quickly ingrained and might produce engaging control panels.

Periscope Data has beautiful charts and SQL integration, but lacks flexibility greatly.
What do you like best about the product?
The appearance and easiness to understand the charts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Formatting charts, placing charts, presenting them the way you want... these are all huge friction points in Periscope.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Many high level metrics are placed in Periscope for the whole company to visualize. It is very useful for such things.
Nice Data Analytics Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Periscope is super versatile and easy to use aplication. It enables you to use filters and develop self-service dashboards for our team.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's UI could be improved, specially when managing big Dashboards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Analysing the environmental impact of our projects and stadistics for our Operations and Sales Teams.
A finicky and slow way to view your data
What do you like best about the product?
After enough help from our business intelligence team to properly get a dashboard set up the way I like it, I find that the most useful part of the software is the ability to download a set of data as a CSV file. I can then import that CSV into excel, make it into a pivot table, and manipulate all the data that way. It's much faster and easier than constantly trying to add / remove rows or values.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe it's just the way it was set up for me, but the tool barely provides any amount of info on the screen at one time. It lets me scroll down about an inch, and then lets me jump to another page of data. Instead of having 5000 pages, just giving more data per page would be a good fix. The software is also clunky. Everything takes a while to do when performing data analysis. I tend to often move around my categories when I'm performing analysis and Sisense just doesn't offer a great tool for us to do that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sisense was used as a business solution to allow everyone at our company to look at data without being competent at using MYSQL and performing complex queries. Our Business Intelligence team has created several tools and dashboards withing Sisense for our different teams needs. On the surface it is great at providing a high level overview of what's going on at the company.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just download everything as a CSV and play with it in excel - it'll save you a headache.
