Sigma Computing reviews

I like that it's easy to create customized views of Data without having to expose unnecesary information as noise. I love the simple UI to build new reports and the smart filters.

Getting the data into Sigma can be daunting at first, but it's worth it in the end. If you're struggling I recommend to keep trying.

I like the flexibility on displaying the information that makes sense the most on our organization.

There were some restrictions when showing text alongside graphs, and the toolbars didn’t allow for enough flexibility to our liking. Other than that, pretty good experience overall

Great UI and incredible functionality! Been very happy with the product so far.

Definitely a learning curve at first -- lots to learn.

Easy exporting into excel, formula customization, overall data customization, saving personal reports

Dragging and dropping columns in the sidebar isn't the most efficient. Also, the loading time when changing filters is so long! I find myself exporting the data dump into excel for easier and faster use. Also the constant formula adjusting to achieve the correct data - I've been using the program for about 6 months and reporting isn't 100% yet.

It was easy to store data and share with partners.

The user dash is a bit basic. It would be great to see a wider variety of tools and functions.

1. excel like so it's easy to pick up
2. can connect to the live database and without writing SQL query
3. can share the worksheet and schedule to send out the worksheet via email

1. it's not easy to use if you want to do a complicated report: once you aggregate multiple worksheets / refer other worksheet and apply multiple filters, it's hard to verify your result and make it in the correct format.
2. the articles to discuss the Sigma features or best practice are not comprehensive.

Sigma is a dynamic and agile system, helping us remove the use of Excel for day-to-day calculations. Their team is supportive and hands-on, which is probably the best part of the company.

Still very basic and could stand to invest further into UI.

Easy and intuitive user interface. Licensing is for creators, viewer usage unlimited. Visual designer for lookups and joins. Fast learning curve for non technical users. Team is super responsive. Works very well with snowflake.

Not a tableau/power bi replacement, some features still immature

Great charts, filters and databases, easy to use and learn

Layout and colors, not nice or fancy first experience

Visualizations, charts, tables, filters for columns

Understanding how to add certain columns, the different layers within the data

This software enables me to analyze the performance of our content on demand, reducing the need to tap teammates to get the data I need. This greatly speeds up the process.

While admins can adjust search parameters, users don't have the ability to set and save things like data ranges. You'll either have to adjust your dates every time you use the program (which is a pain) or make sure your admin is on the ball about updating parameters.

Sigma allows us to have instant access to the data that are ingested into snowflake. It allows me to access all the raw data, which is what I need, rather than concise dashboard data.

Data tables can be a little difficult to learn at first, but just like anything, you can learn it over time with enough familiarity with the product.

It is easy to set up reports, charts and graphs. I can drill down from graphs to worksheet easily and get detailed information

When we have more data (like one year's transaction), the queries take longer time; sometimes it times out.

The ease of combining data sets and manipulating data in a way that makes sense to me.

It's not super user-friendly. I don't have a ton of experience with SQL and I feel like I am limited.

Different custom filters that can be built in, personalization

Loading time- makes the process very hard- refreshing the grid takes forever

The ability to easily and conditionally schedule report exports in multiple formats targeted towards our business users.

I haven't encountered any cons so in terms of features or functions. The only gap one of our analysts identified so far is the ability to determine how a worksheet's final state came to be, specifically the exacts steps performed to created the worksheet like Power BI has.

For the tools that it provides, Sigma is very useful. Whether it is better than other options remains to be seen, but it is a decent choice for data collection and analysis.

It is not the most user-friendly and takes a fair amount of time to set up reports in exactly the way you need. It could be far more flexible.

- Ease of use for individuals who aren't very familiar with databases

- Loading times
- Mapping customizability

I run a lot of reports and I like that I have access to do so at any time.

I am not sure if it is a con yet. It could be just because I am learning how to use the system more.

Ability to access data and information previously not available to those outside of the engineering team. I'm excited about the possibilities too for dashboarding and uploading other data sources to help company wide information sharing.

Its a little hard to understand so I'll need better training from our internal team who implemented the software.
