Great spreadsheet like interface for BI
What do you like best about the product?
It's extremely easy for someone familiar with Excel to pick up and use. No need to be blocked by your data analytics resources or gated by tools that require use of SQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
The charts and vizualizations are sometimes slow and take a while to materialize. It may be annoying for end users if you don't optimize.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma is helping me solve the problem of getting access to data for general business users.
Makes my day to day data analysis a breeze
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and visualization in Sigma is top tier and saves me a lot of time than manually having to filter the data through Google Sheets, Excel, and/or SQL
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside of Sigma at the current moment is not having a dark mode that can be enabled for every dashboard from a viewer standpoint.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problems that Sigma is solving is being able to easily understand the data that is being presented without having to know much about how to filter or use the data in a manual way. Sigma benefits me by saving me a lot of time in trying to do my usual data analysis manually every day.
The best and possibly last BI tool you will ever need
What do you like best about the product?
We evaluated quite a few BI platforms before choosing Sigma. I also have used many of the bigger names in the space. There is nothing out there like Sigma when it comes to the ease of connecting to data sources, the ability to quickly generate fully functional dashboards in a fraction of the time it takes with other tools, the amount of powerful Excel like formulas at your fingertips, and the ability to write data back to the EDW without needing a DBA to create tables. You won't need to write SQL or Python within this tool. You could, but you probably won't. I normally prefer writing my own SQL, but with Sigma I don't miss it at all. You can perform joins and link tables with vlookup like functionality. Oh and it's very fast and can handle millions of rows of data with ease. Also their chat support is fantastic. Best all around BI tool on the market IMO.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's hard for me to find something I dislike, but I suppose their license model could be refined to delinate better between technical users and non-technical users, while providing enough functionality for the middle ground users. Make sure you understand the ins and outs of what each license can do.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma is allowing us to create a single source of truth for enterprise wide reporting. It's empowering our end users by democratizing data that is difficult to access and curate through the ERP.
Great for data but slow load times come along with system
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to export files as google sheets for easier quicker edits and access.
What do you dislike about the product?
How long data takes to load and how many different sigmas there are for the same concept
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making decisions and answering questions via sigma and demonstrating that to my team on a daily basis
Sigma as a BI tool
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, implementation, customer support,
What do you dislike about the product?
Would like to have more control on the UI, there are too much of white spaces around, no good borders as the 'divider' come with spaces as well. Would like to have panels which could be hidden and on click so we can effectively use spaces
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Make data for accessible to all
Easy to Learn
What do you like best about the product?
It was really easy to get started with Sigma. Their tutorial was simple and effective at helping me onboard.
What do you dislike about the product?
None that I have come across thus far. I still prefer using Excel due to my comfort level, but that's more out of habit than due to limitations that I've discovered with Sigma
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data Analysis
A Creative Take on Data Storytelling
What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy how customizable and creative one can be with data visualization and dashboarding, I feel like this is a great, fun way to tell a story while expressing data insights.
What do you dislike about the product?
The least helpful thing about Sigma, personally, is how intimidating it can be for new users. There are lots of features, which is great, but the learning curve for onboarding a new user is steep and can make explaining these features to less tech saavy stakeholders a bit difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma is helping our team express data insights and pulse-check feature releases for stakeholders.
A lot of option is Great
What do you like best about the product?
You can create diferent types of sigmas and filter information that will help not only you but other people in yout bussiness. you can also implement options.

What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes it takes a long time to refresh
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can see how my team is preforming, we our store get hit with QI, M&I or INF, then I can deep dive and get to the root of the problem.
Sigma is amazing helps us run our Sites with ease!!!
What do you like best about the product?
Best thing about sigma is having the access of data for each individual metric we need to caculate if a site is being run well or how to improve based on those numbers.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far nothing about sigma is dislikable
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma is tracking issues on a consitent time frame and allows us leaders to deep dive into the numbers and see what we can do to adjust on site level.
Amazing dashboarding software, especially for real-time use cases and mobile
What do you like best about the product?
We switched from Tableau to Sigma because its superior real-time dashboarding capabilities. It integrates well with both Databricks and PostGreSQL Databases (We use both on Azure but other clouds are supported). Additionally, it's easy to develop with and distribute to your end users. Lastly, the mobile development feature makes it easy to develop mobile as well as web applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside is that it has this annoying blue bar that runs across the top of each of your objects when it updates that you cannot hide. That's the biggest thing they can change to improve it. Other than that, it's excellent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma helps us develop and deploy real-time dashboards to both the web and mobile devices. It lets our users track and monitor the stock market performance of our portfolio in near real-time, and also lets them see analytics they use to make trading decisions.
