Overall Satisfaction with Sigma Computing
It is being used across the company. It is our primary Business Intelligence tool and it allows us to surface reporting in our app. All of our reporting and dashboards are presented through Sigma, both internally and externally.
Pros
- 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
- More visualization options would definitely be welcome.
- A minor thing, but limiting decimal places on trendline data labels would be a great improvement.
- Larger bugbear of mine, the filters on a dashboard should react to each other. The filters currently act independently and it causes issues sometimes with our customers.
- Our ability to get our clients data into their hands in a reliable and consistent manner has dramatically improved
- It has allowed us to focus on predictive and proscriptive analytics, paving the way for our own data products that have become a new revenue stream for us
We got rid of Looker because of the difficulty with LookML and the general not-user friendly approach to reporting.
The other systems were either too expensive, missing functionality such as embedding reports, or just didn't have the features and functionality of Sigma.
