Sigma review

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.

I'm confident with using SQL but Sigma also provides nice visual way to do things. Using SQL helped me tremendously in analyzing recent problems with fraud and getting started with Sigma quickly.
Without using SQL, I would've struggled through the user interface, but through usage of SQL that I'm so familiar with, I was able to get things done quickly and efficiently.

I have used filters and parameters extensively to be able to filter necessary data. They are helpful but I found that using SQL directly is even easier for me, since I'm already well familiar with this language. The UI is fairly responsive in general, although some times a bit difficult to navigate for the new user.

Very helpful to be able to share your data with other users. Once I created the report that I needed, I wanted to share it with certain people within our team and management. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to share it. The only thing, the other user also needed editor permissions to be able to play with the data I shared.

Very good to be able to connect it to a large volume of data and visualize it. We were able to consolidate data from multiple data silos using Sigma. This significantly eased the reporting / SQL needs. Otherwise, we'd have to query each silo separately and combine the data, which would've been too time-consuming.
