What differentiates Sisense from other similar products?

Sisense was chosen because we needed a top-notch business intelligence (BI) tool, and after researching several options, we confirmed that Sisense was the finest option. Each operational division at my company deals with massive amounts of data; this program helps us organize it, visualize it attractively, and analyze it in ways that allow us to anticipate and prevent issues. It has been a fascinating factor in our decision making and has helped us save a lot of time and effort.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Sisense is a fantastic tool because to its low barrier to entry, quick learning curve, and helpful customer support team. The interface is friendly and simple to navigate. When compared to other tools we have examined, the data visualization process is straightforward and easy to use. The organization as a whole may have a better grasp of their data and put that knowledge to use to boost efficiency.

What do you dislike most about this product?

On rare occasions, Sisense has been unresponsive or has responded slowly. It is unclear whether this is the result of a hardware failure or a flaw in the program itself.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I find no fault with this application at all; it serves my purposes well, and I have not found a way to enhance it. I wholeheartedly endorse it. Easy installation, setup, and operation are hallmarks of this software. An abundance of Business Intelligence (BI) based features are built into the intuitive interface to make the lives of end users easier.

  • Continually Improving Product

Effective BI Platform For Daily Use

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Sisense from other similar products?

It is the go-to tool for both BI self-service and discovering business insights in our organization. Several of our business users are independently examining the data, and our core data team also produces and maintains a set of business reports. In addition to key performance indicator (KPI) alerts, we utilize WebApp to run ad hoc visualizations and plugins we've developed on top of Sisense.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Even for those who aren't technically savvy, the interface is straightforward and easy to use. A very high-performance platform built on top of a solid backend architecture. Data cubes are saved on disk in a way that prevents querying activity from affecting the original data in the source databases. The response time from the support team was impressive, and they were quite helpful.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Management strategies based on cubes are becoming antiquated. There should be a more sophisticated fault-tolerant incremental build system, greater language support, and a complete overhaul. Comparatively rudimentary out-of-the-box reporting and visualization tools compared to industry frontrunners There is a problem with the scalability of building several cubes at once; even on servers with plenty of rams, it cannot produce more than three cubes simultaneously.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Ideal BI solution built atop the architecture of a big data platform for pre-aggregating data. Database knowledge and monitoring levels can be set quite low. In addition, it's ideal for companies that don't deal with "big data," as no extra workers are required to compile and show the information. It's not as good when very specialized and complicated visuals are needed.

Pros

  • Performance Enhancing
  • Unique Features
  • Efficient Service
  • Effective Service
