"Powerful dashboards, but setup and data modeling take time to master"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Sisense?

How easy it makes working with complex data. It pulls information from multiple sources into one place and turns it into clear, interactive dashboards that are actually useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sisense?

The initial setup and data modeling can take some time to get right, especially if your data environment is complex. Some advanced features also have a learning curve, so new users may need training before they feel fully comfortable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Data vizualisation to a great extend"
4/5
What do you like best about Sisense?

Since we have move well towards the world of AI, the Sisense also have these features that makes user experience more interactive. Like its intelligence, generating narratives, descriptions for tables, charts, providing summaries, analysis even if one is not an expert in data. All these are enhancing the user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sisense?

Well sometimes its slow like Iframes for dashboards, loading the dashboards can be slow and lagged which in a way disrupts the flow. Also some features are limited to certain report functions which are required in a lot more places. Apart from there other factors are also there like exporting data are not as feasible as others, if a user is viewing dashboards in mobile it can be hectic. Cost sometimes is also an issue for a lot of organizations as I have experienced, so these things can be looked at and improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sisense?

"Amazing Customer Support and wonderful people to work with"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Sisense?

Ease of Use and Flexibility once it is installed. There are a lot of functionality and flexibility in creating dashboards using the scripting window. This allows the product to be very tailored to our department and organizational needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sisense?

Since moving to the cloud most of the features that were a problem on-prem are no longer a problem. Some of the complex filtering is still a challenge with everything being an 'and' and no real way to use 'or'. Additionally, naming conventions for perspectives is a problem which is being worked on by Sisense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Jacqueline Cordell of Sisense

Thank you so much for this glowing review, David! I would love to set up a call and chat about your experience moving over to the cloud and get that into our Sisense Community. That would be a powerful story to share with other users. :) If you would be interested, email us at community@sisense.com

"Sisense: Great for Simple Reporting but more Frustrating than any other BI Tool"
2/5
What do you like best about Sisense?

Sisense is really great in terms of building and simple straightforward reports and dashboards. I think Sisense has also been really great with integrating with Snowflake. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sisense?

Some things that Sisense lacks is the ability to create more in-depth data visualizations. I think the sharing and folder aspect of Sisense is lacking as well compared to other BI platforms. The amount of Javascript needed to do more complicated dashboards and reports is a fairly big hurdle. Finally the Sisense community is really lacking compared to Power BI and Tableau. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Jacqueline Cordell of Sisense

We appreciate your feedback on Sisense's strengths in building simple reports and integrating with Snowflake. We understand your concerns about the limitations in data visualizations and sharing, as well as the need for extensive JavaScript for complex dashboards. We are constantly working to improve our platform, and your input is valuable in this process. A great way to get this feedback in front of our product team is to share it in our product feedback forum located in the Sisense Community; I hope we can see your thoughts there!
