Sigma Overview

What is Sigma?

Sigma is an award-winning modern business intelligence (BI) and analytics platform purpose-built for the cloud. With Sigma, anyone can use the spreadsheet functions and formulas they already know to explore live data at cloud scale, down to the lowest grain of detail. Our familiar spreadsheet-like interface delivers the full power of SQL into the hands of any user while keeping data fresh and secure within cloud data warehouses. Data-first companies use Sigma to empower their employees, customers, and partners to break free from the confines of the dashboard and explore data for themselves to make better, faster decisions. Our software was built to capitalize on the performance power of cloud data warehouses to combine data sources and analyze billions of rows of data instantly – no coding required.

Product Description

Give business teams the freedom to analyze cloud data in real time without limits. Sigma provides the full power of SQL without coding, cloud flexibility, and an intuitive spreadsheet interface.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Traditional analytics & BI tools work well when data teams can predict business requirements ahead of time and the data is not of massive scale. Yet, when those things change, traditional tools begin to struggle. That’s where Sigma comes in. Sigma was purpose-built with fresh code for the cloud. Our platform connects directly to cloud data warehouses and does not remove any data, allowing your data and business teams to leverage the scale of all available data without summarizing or creating extracts. Unlike traditional BI tools, Sigma does not require data to be heavily modeled to support unanticipated questions. Instead, end users can freely explore and analyze live, governed datasets within a cloud data warehouse using our intuitive spreadsheet-like interface.

High price tag. Hi base platform fee would turn some small business away. Some functions are not working properly when they first release them.

The easy way to export underlying data to google sheet allow business user to do more in-depth Analysis without reaching out to data teamfor some more technical user, we can just give them prepared dataset, and they can explore by themselves.

We are also able to provide reports to external clients Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sigma?

We switched from Tableau to Sigma because its superior real-time dashboarding capabilities. It integrates well with both Databricks and PostGreSQL Databases (We use both on Azure but other clouds are supported). Additionally, it's easy to develop with and distribute to your end users. Lastly, the mobile development feature makes it easy to develop mobile as well as web applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sigma?

The only downside is that it has this annoying blue bar that runs across the top of each of your objects when it updates that you cannot hide. That's the biggest thing they can change to improve it. Other than that, it's excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
