Powerful data visualization tool for your business
What do you like best about the product?
Pulling together visualizations and tables is extremely quick! Manipulating data has become easy and almost enjoyable because of the features Sigma offers. I love that I can quickly pull in columns from other data sets (with millions of rows). I'm excited to start using input tables.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside I can think of is that it is an entirely different platform requiring a significant time investment. It's not like you can transfer your Excel knowledge and automatically know the Sigma formulas. I do think it is worth it, though. Just depends on your capacity at work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma helps solve our problem of having huge, slow Excel files that constantly crash when trying to pull numbers. Excel also is not an ideal place to have dashboards and visuals but Sigma does it all. I have to pull visuals and data for my presentations so it will save me a lot of time and effort pulling the same data and storing it in slow Excel files.
Prompt an helpful service!
What do you like best about the product?
I like the help center! I get prompt responses that always fully answer my questions. I was skeptical at first because I thought I would chatting with bots or something, but it's real people every time!
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a bit of a learning curve with Sigma -- as with any new interface. Sometimes, to customize tables or figures in a certain way isn't always the most intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently working on market analysis of different fix and flip real-estate properties in the United States. Sigma has helped me visualize a lot of this data and create beautiful map visualizatons!

Sigma Dashboard review
What do you like best about the product?
The support team is absolutely phenomenal. Whenever I have questions about how to do something that's unclear to me in Sigma, they're super friendly and quick to respond to me in the live chat feature. They go above and beyond to check that I truly have fixed my issue.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is difficult to navigate. Inserting elements and editing the text in them is not intuitive. It's weird to me that if you paste an element from one page to another, it pastes the data source along with it. The autosizing element stuff is also a little weird to me. I come from a Google Data Studio/Looker Studio background so I'm used to the UI there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Sigma when we need to make ad-hoc dashboards that visualize data straight from a source query and not fully modeled out in Looker. It's a faster way to create dashboards for us that bypasses the version control additions we need to go through when using Looker.
Brief experience using Sigma
What do you like best about the product?
I was surprised to see the responsiveness of Sigma in the projects I worked on. Unlike other visualization softwares I tried, Sigma allows me to continue working on different areas of my project while the data is refreshing on the back, or while it is applying the filters I create.
Also, even if the interface and functionalities are very familiar (some like MS Excel) which allows for a quick 1st interaction, I found extremely helpful all the tutorials created. For every doubt I had, I was able to find the answer I needed.
The support team is great, there was no delay in the responses, I received the help I needed and even recommendations to help improve the performance of what I was building.

What do you dislike about the product?
The tutorials and help section have some screenshots or videos that refer to a prior version, however the explanations are correct and easy to follow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma is helping me create visualizations and reports from data stored in warehouses. I'm experiencing faster response times compared to other softwares.
A dashboarding tool for quickly visualizing analysis.
What do you like best about the product?
Data can be imported directly and very quickly from your data warehouse, and the variety of visualization options and intuitive custom column functions makes analysis easy. Their support chat is extremely helpful, and with their help, nothing stands in your way of telling a story to stakeholders.
What do you dislike about the product?
We wanted Sigma as a tool to replace google sheets, but some functionality is not quite fully supported to justify this transition; however, we know that the Sigma team is building out this functionality with Input Tables, and it is only a matter of time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted a tool to quickly and consistently develop dashboards, and Sigma provided a platform to write SQL and import our granular datamarts to visualize and share among our stakeholders.
Sigma makes my life way easier and impresses our customers!
What do you like best about the product?
Sigma is like Excel on steroids! Very powerful, dynamic, saves me time, and I'm able to convey data driven insights directly to my customers. No code is needed to find value in Sigma. Sigma also has a very robust customer support team to answer questions whenever you need help.
What do you dislike about the product?
The one immediate challenge I've found is for a ConvertTimeZone function, it is a static function. That said, the support agent linked me to an existing ticket and they are working on a solution in the tool for this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sigma takes all of our data, allows me to add helper fields, and then provides me automated analytics and reporting functionality that I can use to better run our operation.
