Overall Satisfaction with Sigma Computing

Sigma has been great for creating reports of financial data and corresponding visualizations. We've been using it for reporting payment and invoicing data. It helped consolidate the data across multiple data silos.

Pros

  • Reports on fraudulent transactions.
  • Visualizations of sales data.
  • SQL queries and reports.

Cons

  • UI to be a bit more intuitive.
  • More self-help navigation guidance.
  • Training course on Safari.
  • Helped identify sale data gaps.
  • Helped identify fraudulent transactions.
  • Helped with management reporting.
I've used standalone reporting tools in the past, such as Tibco Spotfire and Tableau.
I find Sigma definitely has advantage in terms of sharing / collaboration capabilities.
Since Sigma has web based UI, vs normal Windows UI though that other tools have, it makes it a bit harder to use.
Once you get used to it, it's okay though.
Very useful for data reporting and visualization. Not so much for real time data analysis though, since data is mostly historical (one day lag).

Sigma Support

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.

Using Sigma

UI may need some improvements. Sometimes it's not intuitive enough. Perhaps, new user needs some walkthrough / guide first time he/she logs in.
