Sigma FTW
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to blend different discrete data sources without having to code. We use this in connection to our Snowflake database. The speed of the analysis is great and is a nice mix of fully governed data and free analysis.
What do you dislike about the product?
Actually, not a whole lot stands out as negative. I would like there to be a little more analytical features out of the box. Maybe some simple trending or statistical processes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The most significant benefit is allowing people to explore data and blend their data into the database without BI/Data personnel. They can explore and add in their own formulas, making it almost a truly self service soultion.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a great tool. We've been able to implement and have our users create useful insights all in under a week.
Best reporting tool I've used till now
What do you like best about the product?
Integrated querying-tool and spreadsheet-like interface
What do you dislike about the product?
Limit rows number when exporting data. The work made behind the scenes when materializing datasets seems to be not much clean. I've got asked a lot by the Data Infrastructure managers "who is running this query?" while they show me a huge query with lots of aliases and subqueries. Currently, we've migrated to Snowflake + dbt, so we are doing that materializing there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
End-user can download charts source data (self-service). Clone a dashboard with minor modifications. Schedule sending of reports.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sigma is the future, is an excellent tool in combination with dbt
Sigma user review
What do you like best about the product?
I like how secure it is because it allows me to use SSO to log in. I like combining multiple data sources such as database tables, csv, and Excel files. I love how fast Sigma is to show data and how flexible it is.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't love the way data source joins are done; I know it works very well, but I would prefer to have something more visual and accessible, something that reminds me of the joins I have applied
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm using Sigma to create relationships between multiple data sources without having actually to query a database and use complex SQL queries; I can tell that it is always faster to use Sigma instead of query the database directly and create CSV files to work with them on Excel.

Review

Recommendations to others considering the product:
System could be faster
The representatives at Sigma have been incredibly helpful
What do you like best about the product?
- the interface is recognizable and there is a shorter learning curve before we can see results. We use Snowflake with Sigma. I think it serves a different purpose than Power BI and other visualization tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have many complaints with the tool just yet but I am still in the phase of exploring what it can do.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating reports for the Business users in a way they have some autonomy over data manipulation like they would in excel
From the perspective of Sales and also an author of dashboards
What do you like best about the product?
Fairly easy to use with hardly any coding knowledge. I can build basic dashboards and explore the worksheets and data. Customer support is also really responsive and helpful!
What do you dislike about the product?
The way user teams are set up and managing the sets of data each team gets access to seems limited at the moment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being cloud-based is definitely a big selling point and extremely helpful for sharing dashboards I create with my team. Directly connect to our database in Snowflake, I can access and manipulate the latest data on a daily basis.
Sigma Review
What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy the ease of use. The ability to manipulate large amounts of data fairly easily is great. I also think the integration with Snowflake is excellent, as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
The limited number of visualization options. Would be great to have some more diverse options like Power BI for graphs and charts, as well as other presentation types.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time-saving, ability to have dashboards that refresh quickly and give great views while being very readable for non-power users. Also really enjoying the direct integration with Snowflake.
