Easy to learn but with enough depth to appeal to more advanced BI users.
Constantly updating and improving the tool.
The parameter and filter functionality is on point. It makes creating enterprise quality reporting a breeze for our team.
The SQL writer is very straight forward and the fact you can write directly in SQL gives Sigma a huge leg up on other BI tools that use their own languages.

Cons

Integration with apps that are listed. Some of them are not supported yet and it seems the wait is taking longer than I'd like.
iPhone support. It would be nice to have this in the app store. Not available as of 04/25/2018.

It does not provide the same amount of features as the marketing leader such as tableau.
There are limited calculated fields.
A data quality tool can help visualize data before you analyse it , which are super helpful. So far it is not available in Sigma yet.

Sigma 7.5

Based on 43 answers

I use Sigma in my daily finance and accounting functions. I find that Sigma is pretty easy to use. There are certain reports that I used to email out to the Executives on a weekly basis. Since we have onboarded Sigma, the standard reports are auto emailed out on a weekly basis at a prescheduled time.

Support Rating

9 Spokes 5.0

Based on 1 answer

Support was helpful in the beginning but no longer needed because I didn't use the software as much. The experience that I did have with support was very friendly but not enough to give a good review. If the support team was called for initial setup, video chat or messenger app was used.

Based on 56 answers

Support team is helpful in answering questions and providing help with using the UI. There are knowledgeable people within the support team.There are also good online support tools. There are significant community support resources available.There is however lack of a live support. It would be useful to have live phone number or chat to use.

Alternatives Considered

I actually chose QuickBooks (currently using) and Method (used for a month) before deciding that 9 Spokes is just good for looking at a few apps in one place. I'll keep checking back with them to see if they have improved. I wouldn't be surprised if 9 Spokes improves their product within the next 6-12 months.

Sigma [Computing] is the easiest to use. Visualizations and calculations can be created easily without writing code. It's super intuitive and also has nice charts and visuals. Sigma [Computing] also allows users to write their own SQL queries without having to learn another language to create reports. Other BI tools have their language or functions which users must learn before they are able to fully use the tool.
