Great tool, few limitations

Only web-based, can't use offline. Can get pretty slow if many calculated fields are added to a table.

Easy to answer questions using pivot tables. Data visualization also useful, but being able to pivot large datasets is great
Sigma is Best
What do you like best about the product?
Sigma is easy to use. Easy to access and very easy to understand, unlike its other competitors. It has some good features and some best ones. Some inbuilt formulas are best to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
A few Downsides I observed are the errors aren't mentioned properly, we have to google them. It is slow sometimes and warehouse-dependent. But still, it is evolving and has been getting good updates and new features with each version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Exception Aggregation is one thing Sigma is solving. It is one of the main things involved in our project. It benefits me by making my work simpler and getting users' approval.
Good data visualization w/o coding
What do you like best about the product?
The workbook functionality is a big help. Most end users will not need prior coding knowledge to perform data analysis.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are still a few bugs and UX issues with the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automating reports as well as exploring and editing dashboards without coding experience.
Perfect for the Price
What do you like best about the product?
It's constantly innovating to add new features. The direct access to engineers and easy way to watch tickets is also very convenient.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's behind on a lot of things that BI has already accomplished. A lot of things have to have work arounds because the sql supported in the actual interface is spotty.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's solving our need for a UI way of presenting our data without costing a lot. We are more productive because we're able to drill into data now, instead of constantly running reports.
Thumbs Up
What do you like best about the product?
I like that sigma is easy to follow and pick up. The functionalities work and I like how my SQL queries are saved and I can edit and add filters to any visualizations. I like that even though I had never used sigma in the past I was able to learn how to use it quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the downsides of sigma are the downtimes/ lag issues. Occasionally my dashboards will crash or take a while to load. Also, if I have noticed that entering functions when building specific value columns or pivot table calculations can get tricky. For instance, when I replace columns in a query with the same column name they do not always populate over to my calculations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma solves a lot. For instance, because of Sigma, I can display data in a readable and understandable format to my stakeholders. It benefits me because I can create different types of visualizations and functions to make the data digestible for the end-user. Simplifying large queries into easy-to-read data points is the best part of sigma.
I like the way content is presented in Sigma, but I dont have experience creating it.
What do you like best about the product?
ability to create tables and charts and to integrate multiple non-departmental variables into a single department's views.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish building in Sigma was more intuitive for a less experienced user. I've used Looker in the past which I eventually picked up because it was more user-friendly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma creates easy ways for our teams to analyze our client base, and allows us to think creatively and problem solve with reliable data.
