Business users are able to get access to our Sigma dashboards through embeds and guest user accounts. This allows them to manipulate data of 1OOMs of rows without even knowing they are! Furthermore, the row access controls restrict them to only seeing their data and keeping other clients' data secure. One dashboard is delivered to multiple clients using row access controls.
Yes. The ability to quickly join datasets and spin up dashboards has made Sigma a great data exploration tool. This allows us and our clients to get a more nuanced understanding of their data in real-time. Often we "hide" the data tables and only allow them to view the visualizations.
Sigma was chosen for three reasons. 1. Excel-like workflow. Many of our researchers have a background in excel, and the excel-like workflow Sigma offers enabled them to get up and running quickly. 2. Embeds. We can easily embed dashboards into our SAS platform 3. Price. Sigma was about 50% of the competition.
