I feel like Sisense is very easy to used compared to competitors, and it has a great initiation guide for new users to start implementing it into their business, I think Sisense does a great job in getting powerful analytics.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My most favorite aspect is the visualization of the data, it's entirely customizable and I can organize it however I want, it has a very stunning platform that is easy to work with and the management of the data for business analysis works great and allows us to understand the data recorded in our platforms and have a clear vision of how we want to follow up with our sales projects. Another favorite aspect of Sisense is that it's perfect for understanding our revenue and risks, as well as understanding aspects of all our sales based on region.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Sisense is a bit slow at times, as well as it is costly for a small business like ours, but they're slowly improving their service. I also dislike the fact that their customer service is not responsive and doesn't do a great job at solving issues regarding the functionality of the software.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

This is a very helpful and great Business Intelligence tool and I would recommend it to people who want to get basic reports of their data, especially if you're working on sales, it's great for sorting out different KPIs that are important to your business' success.

Easy to use tool to visualize data

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Sisense from other similar products?

We've built various dashboards with data that may examine the important company KPIs on a daily/weekly/monthly basis. Users can acquire useful insights and deduce information about the uncommon business scenario. Dashboard data may be downloaded as PDF, Excel, or CSV files. Provide a visualization layer to our clients in order for them to acquire actionable insights into the outcomes. It enables enterprises to directly construct dashboards in order to learn how they may improve. Sisense spends much on their Linux web system, which is excellent.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Sisense is an easy-to-use BI tool for displaying data in the form of colorful dashboards. Easy to understand and developer friendly. Sisense can feed multiple records to an internal storage location that contains all connections. Group users can create basic analyzes together. They always bring new features to Sisense. They are always timely and can optimally complete any task. You can build your dashboard live, or you can build your dashboard based on an elastic cube that can pull data from multiple data sources.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Indexing tables, particularly pivot tables, might be indexed more frequently, upgrades to later versions have been necessitated by complicated security mechanisms. I'd want to resize the tabs over numerous rows and update the aesthetics. It might take a long time to load the panels, resulting in a poor user experience. If none of the users utilize a board, your cube continues to eat memory, increasing total memory usage and consequently load time, Sisense widget customisation is lacking.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Sisense is a simple and straightforward tool that is simple to understand. Create a simple cube and dashboard to test your comprehension and functioning. Make certain that you have all of the tools necessary to combine the appropriate data sets. Also, make sure it meets your requirements since once you've built your cube, you won't be able to change the datasets without restarting the procedure. Integrating data into a data cube simplifies and secures access to all required data sources.

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing

Great BI tool, easy to implement.

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Sisense from other similar products?

Simplicity is beneficial to your product to the end user, but it is also good for resolving business issues. It has a very basic appearance for the end user who does not require technical understanding, and it is extremely straightforward to use and comprehend. Sisense is unique in that it may be used for both reporting and analysis. We utilize Sisense to give high-level information as well as the ability to dig deeper into the problem's core cause. Hopefully, our clients will take use of the Pulse and Alerting functionality, which is an excellent complement to any reporting product.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

There are a wide variety of widgets to choose from to create powerful visualizations. Sisense has created a great community for people to share tips and tricks. You have the option of creating your own plugins or reusing plugins provided by other Sisense users. Storing metadata in MongoDB is one of the best things Sisense can do. It speeds up dashboard performance and significantly speeds up data rendering. The Sisense plugin is very useful for designing dashboards and displaying ready-to-use features on dashboards. It's also readily available in the Sisense community.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Sisense management is not simple, the management of the servers is extremely difficult and time-consuming. From development to production, the cube implementation takes a long time. Furthermore, the logging procedures are inadequate; if a cube fails, it is extremely difficult to determine the cause and the same is true for a sluggish server or dashboard failure. Date aggregation gets difficult if you don't keep your data on a regular basis. The widget setting has a few small flaws: autoscaling occasionally fails when using multiple types of charts (combo charts).

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Sisense should be your first choice if you're seeking for an integrated BI solution. Supporting hundreds of millions of entries without a separate BI optimized database might be problematic. Sisense, on the other hand, is arguably the most cost-effective choice if your data sets are modest. I strongly advise you to use Sisense to address your end-to-end reporting and analytics problem. You'll be able to solve your problem quickly and naturally.

  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
