Integrated querying-tool and spreadsheet-like interface Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limit rows number when exporting data. The work made behind the scenes when materializing datasets seems to be not much clean. I've got asked a lot by the Data Infrastructure managers "who is running this query?" while they show me a huge query with lots of aliases and subqueries. Currently, we've migrated to Snowflake + dbt, so we are doing that materializing there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the easy way in which calculations and visualizations can be created, and that's super straightforward to teach end-users how to build things on their own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not being able to create LOD calculations, meaning to avoid some of the grouping levels and then create more flexible calculations. Also, charts' alignment on dashboard is difficult and being able to use worksheet level columns for filtering wo a parameter is a bummer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy for experiment reporting and monitoring fixed metrics (ones where definitions are clearly defined). Tabs make it easy to read through relevant information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not as easy to manipulate the data without significant SQL knowledge. Edit access is limited. Hard to track SQL code behind the tables. With it could be more visual Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how intuitive it is for linking up all the data sources, the tie into snowflake and pulling together in clean, clear dashboards Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be nice if for the pivot type graphs there were options to adjust and move data around or add total in the dashboard itself and not have to go back into the datasheet and change the whole dashboard Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm a non-technical PM. Sigma has a relatively moderate learning curve (a few hours), but once you get the hang of it there's a definite 80/20 rule where a few basics will take you far and help you unlock the power to create advanced reports. For 99% of reports, it replaces the need to write SQL (you still can if you want). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Creating dashboards can be fiddly. They have a folder system, but managing existing reports can quickly get out of hand. Playing around with an existing report requires you to create a new one, leaving hundreds of temporarily used saved reports in my wake. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Fairly easy to use with hardly any coding knowledge. I can build basic dashboards and explore the worksheets and data. Customer support is also really responsive and helpful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The way user teams are set up and managing the sets of data each team gets access to seems limited at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really enjoy the ease of use. The ability to manipulate large amounts of data fairly easily is great. I also think the integration with Snowflake is excellent, as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The limited number of visualization options. Would be great to have some more diverse options like Power BI for graphs and charts, as well as other presentation types. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sigma's data exploration tool is amazing for non-SQL users. Users can quickly join and filter datasets with an Excel-style interface. This process is so fast and smooth that even SQL users often use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visualizations capabilities are limited compared to other BI tools. Occasinally I find myself exporting data to visualise in another tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool allows you to do typical BI on top of massive datasets! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My only complaint would be hoping for more functionality around visualizations in the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use. Friendly UI. Self-taught how to use this and I am not technical. We are using it to monitor usage of our customers and also forecasting from a sales perspective. I haven't had any issues figuring out how to use this BI tool and enjoy the easy access to data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Better in app training could be useful but other than that I haven't really had any downsides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
