The support of Sisense is very good, fast response and professional answers.

Best product for your shift in data analytics

Kommentare: Working in healthcare, we needed a powerful tool that would allow us to make our clients capable of easily visualize and understand their data in order to improve their operational productivity as well as the quality of care they dispense to their population of patients. Thanks to Sisense, we offer a complete libary of dashboards and even allow clients to create their own dashboards. It allowed us to bonify our offering and therefore increase our revenues while better serving our clients.

Vorteile:

Sisense is easy to install and setup. It easy to use, both on the data modelling and dashboard design aspects. It makes it the perfect tool to quickly set up added value dashboards and begin your shift towards understanding your data. Sisense is also easy to embed and therefore makes it easy to provide our users with self-service analytics. Sisense's customer success team is great and will make sure you quickly see the value of their product through a customized onboarding process.

Nachteile:

The fact that multiple data models (elasticube) are competing for resources (mostly RAM) on a single server.

Quick to set up plug and play data visualization tool that is more on the budget friendly side

Vorteile:

Unlike Looker or Tableau, you don't need an elaborate data model to start building dashboards. You can just plug in your data source and with some basic SQL, have decent dashboards. The verified badge on the dashboards and data alerts are also super useful.

Nachteile:

I don't think the data import options from various sources is working very efficiently.

Sisense is very flexible, but not for the faint of heart

Kommentare: We deployed Sisense embedded in our own suite of healthcare software products and have been overall fairly pleased with the results. We can achieve almost anything we set out to do with some combination of plugins and existing functionality, and some additional paid work through their professional services team. Unfortunately, I have not been impressed with the support we've received. We had a lot of critical issues during implementation and it was difficult to engage Sisense to actually help troubleshoot the problems. The support has improved over the past year but their stellar support was a prime selling point during the sales process and I can't say that they have delivered on that. Overall, there's a lot of opportunity when deploying Sisense, but be prepared to step up and solve your own problems.

Vorteile:

We really liked the fact that sisense is a "full-stack" BI tool so we could keep a separate reporting data store without having to pay extra fees for SQL licensing. We have a LOT of data since we work in healthcare, and paying SQL licensing fees to store an extra set of data would essentially double our reporting costs. There are many plugins available that you can use in combination to build a very flexible system.

Nachteile:

One of the issues we ran into was becoming dependent on plugins and non-standard setup procedure to support our unique needs. As our system grew, it was difficult to find reliable support people to work with us on the Sisense side. The support team did not have the technical expertise I would expect for such a complicated product, so we ended up learning a lot on our own and solving our own problems.

Easy to use

Vorteile:

I can use the system with ease, analyzing received data reports or dashboards.

Nachteile:

However, like any tool, Sisense has its drawbacks. One of the primary pain points is the setup process. While Sisense can integrate with many data sources, configuring those integrations might be challenging without assistance from experienced technical support.
