Amazing for certain things but not a silver bullet platform for larger company.
What do you like best about the product?
It's very fast, some of the visuals are damn cool, the team is good.
What do you dislike about the product?
plugs ins and java scripting for basic things that are out of box in other platforms. having to bring stuff in and model in their elastic cube set us back. I also didn't think some of their executives were truthful in mtgs with our team.. they said their mapping capabilities were the exact same as Tableau's. Really? Either they were lying or high on their own cool aid, but there's no comparison on mapping and much more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I don't know as we're moving forward with other platforms like Tableau and PBI instead of Sisense.

Using sisense to provide our customers a good tool to analyze call center data

It's Elasticube (data) engine has really good performance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometime it's not immediate for the designer to understand what is the path that sisense is usign to provide an answer (draw a chart or create a table), that could require some "hint" in the expressions to force it to use the right structures, but it depends on the complexity of your datamodel. I think it is an acceptable compromise when you use a software that is not requiring you to write the query needed to get data, regardless how complex is your datamodel.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We provide sisense to our customers to analyze their call center data; the objective for our customers is to consult their data to evaluate if everything is working fine in their callcenter or something is creating an issue; in case of bad data, they have to understand what is causing the issue.
Reporting Made Easy

I at first was new to the reporting world having zero exp in creating data cubes, creating widgest and putting data into a layout that looked presentable. Sisense came easy to me and if i ever hit a road block their site had loads of information to help guide me or their tech support was easy to schdule a meeting with so they could assist. My Customer Success Manager at Sisense Makhate always make me feel like a top priority when i reach out.

Sisense Periscope
What do you like best about the product?
We have been using Sisense Periscope since 2018 and we are very happy with the product. It empowers anyone in the company with SQL knowledge to create dashboards and share them with others. This tool is really the fastest way from data to insights when you are prototyping or exploring.
What do you dislike about the product?
Once you reach a certain level of complexity with your dashboards you will hit limits either in terms of performance or dashboard usability. In these cases it's better to move to more advance data tools that allows to better slice and dice the data. Still we are very happy to keep Sisense Periscope for the initial exploratory phase.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sisense Periscope helps solve the problem of quickly creating a dashboard from a relational database or flat files to share with others.
Its the best tool for an analyst/engineer but not as visually appealing for the end-user.

Robust Features with Some Scalability Hurdles
What do you like best about the product?
The strong suit of Sisense lies in its comprehensive approach to data integration and analysis. The ease with which it handles data from various sources and the simplicity of its dashboard creation tools are commendable. Visualizing data is a breeze, and the drag-and-drop functionality is a boon for creating detailed reports quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
However, the platform isn't without its issues. The primary concern arises when the system is scaled. For a SaaS offering, one anticipates seamless scalability and robust backend support to manage increasing data loads. Unfortunately, Sisense seems to struggle with resource management during high-demand periods. As the complexity and volume of queries grow, performance can degrade, contradicting the expected reliability of a cloud-based service. This has been a significant drawback, especially when quick data processing is essential for business operations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The platform has been instrumental in transforming our data visualization practices.
Great for quick access dashboarding, Short on Deep Level Analytics
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the ease at which we can develop new dashboards to bring some visualizations to our users rapidly. The interface is intuitive and easy to customize. You can easily imbed your queries and stored procedures which drive your result sets and then easily integrated those into a handful of charts.
The sharing of dashboards to users is simple and makes extending the visualizations to a wide variety of recipients very easy.

What do you dislike about the product?
Overall the tool lacks robustness with respect to driving interactive analytics. There is no capability of importing data models into the platform which limits the functionality to indepenedent data sets and no real multi-dimensional analysis.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's best suited in allowing us to identify trends and using some of the conditional formating capabilities, allows us to generate easy to interpret dashboards to quickly give us easily identifiable indicators.
