High Potential
What do you like best about the product?
The product offers a lot of ease of use when it comes to data manipulation. Instead of complex formulas, a lot can be achieved by simple grouping and lookups.
What do you dislike about the product?
The visualizations and the text formatting could use much improvement. I can't sort a list manually or set the header to wrap.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Enable self-service analytics for end users to explore the data on their own
Very Intuitive and Easy to Use Product
What do you like best about the product?
Sigma is a very Simple and Easy to Use product; it allows you to get started quickly after creating a database connection. I like the ease of use and the intuitive UI for building something quickly.
At our company, we are using it to publish a wise dashboard to refresh the KPIs, while it's also being used by several departments to build their own reporting.

What do you dislike about the product?
Having experience working on Power BI, MSTR, Excel, and Tableau, I think Sigma is lacking in a few complex visualizations and use cases that are achievable using those tools. However, that makes them bulky, while Sigma is a very lightweight tool to get you started.
so if it works for your use case then well and good

Best in class flexible BI & vizualization suite

Sigma is fast and flexible - it has a wealth of connectors / integrations and a good cadence of updates / improvements. The ability to implement white label or emedded analytics is a standout feature vs the competition making it highly extensible and customisable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Until recently support was limited to the US and US hours - I'm pleased ot say this has recently been updated to provide local first line support in the UK also.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma allows us to quickly and efficiently iterate different dashboard versions whilst providing a seemless white label experience to users.
Versatile Data Platform with Strong Collaboration, But Some Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Provide dashboards to our team members to show operational data
Streamlining business processes with precision
What do you like best about the product?
In Sigma, we have the ability to create data links right in the platform. This feature lets our analysts link up countless data sources while keeping the dataset lean and mean, free from any unnecessary bulk.
Sigma is the only BI tool that I came across which provides access to "Viewers" without the need of assigning them licenses.
Sigma’s built-in elements such as KPIs, pivot tables, filters, and simple chart types make it easy for anyone to create meaningful data insights.
Also, being a SAAS offering there is no need to host infra and that helps avoid unnecessary overhead of backend infra managemenet.

What do you dislike about the product?
If someone is looking to create highly complex or artistic data visualizations, Sigma might fall short on their expectations. There is not much we can customize in the UI in addition to the built-in elements.
Also, despite Sigma's user friendly interface and design, folks without any data analysis experience may face a little steep learning curve.
Sigma, being newer to the market compared to legacy products like Tableau or Power BI, some feature set within it are still evolving, and also there are fewer people in market who are expert at it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping us visualise huge amount of dataset stored in Data Warehouse - Snowflake and AWS Datalake and making some sense out of the data.
We have all the data coming from various tools like Salesforce, databases, etc into Snowflake. We are using Sigma it to visualize this data the which captures our product adoption, user feedback, customer sentiment, repeat rate and various other metrics. Creating visual representations of this data using Sigma aids in pinpointing our shortcomings, which in turn fosters broader acceptance and the enhancement of our services.
On corporate side, we use Sigma to create trackers and metrics around employee engagement by virtue of dashboards around their metrics on internal project management tools.

Fast, Powerful, and Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
I love the way that Sigma integrates with our data warehouse and can quickly sync data. Also the ability to live in the cloud is huge, Tableau use to slow us way down to develop new dashboards. Additionally, the abiltity for more users to easily see created dashboards is great. The implementation team was also great, tutorials were quick and easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
The downside is the additional compute that we need to use in Snowflake. However, still better than running on our own computers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma is solving the problem of being able to quickly and painlessly make dashboards in the cloud on near real-time data from our data warehouse, Snowflake.

Business Intelligence Software Trailblazer
What do you like best about the product?
Sigma Computing offers a modern approach to business intelligence that stands out in the industry. I particularly appreciate the complete control over performance provided by the cloud data warehouse live connection, materialization, and caching capabilities. Sigma's platform presents far more commercialization opportunities compared to other tools, allowing our clients to truly experience a self-service environment. The product is continuously improved with thoughtful enhancements and a forward-thinking roadmap that leverages the latest technological developments. Moreover, the in-app live support with real humans enables our analysts and developers to resolve issues swiftly and efficiently, significantly boosting our productivity.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is truly nothing that I dislike about Sigma. I would however recommend investing more in controls for formatting static reports as well. To be the "all-in-one" solution it must include top notch PDF and XLSX exporting functionalities, and while they do exist and are good, there is room for improvement on the export quality, specifically for margins, elements potentially being cut off due to sizing, etc...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a market research and analytics company, we heavily rely on business intelligence tools to develop and maintain our products and services. We almost exlusively use Sigma for all of these operations. Sigma has enabled us to work faster, be more analytical, and deliver a higher quality product to our clients.
