Overall Satisfaction with Sigma Computing

Sigma is the hub for all of our organizations reporting and dashboarding needs. We use it for everything from quick questions about our data, to advanced analysis and projections. As a small data team, I use Sigma daily to create workbooks and answer questions of my internal team. Sigma's workbook functionality is some of the best I've seen in any BI tool. Advanced questions that would involve complicated query writing are very fast to develop in Sigma's formula and table editors.

Pros

  • Interactive workbooks
  • Data Table development
  • Data Table reusability

Cons

  • Document based report development
  • Theming and styling
  • Visualization types offered
  • Operationalization of data
  • Key Metric reporting
  • Central source of truth for organization data
  • Presentation tool for multi-system reporting
Sigma is the easiest to use from a workbook developer perspective, and from a non-technical end user perspective. Everything from administration, semantic layer setup, to creating dashboards is easier in Sigma than these other tools. Developing content in Sigma is enjoyable, and you feel like you can do what you expect to intuitively without hassle.

Did Sigma Computing live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Sigma Computing go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Sigma Computing again?

Yes

I have recommended Sigma to colleagues who are looking for a BI tool that is hosted and who are utilizing Snowflake. While I think Sigma could be good for analysis purposes for any organization, if the consumption of the reports is primarily focused around interactive dashboards, I think it is a very good fit.

I would not recommend Sigma for organizations that have requirements for document based reports.
