Sisense 사용 후기 및 리뷰

Good product with fast learning curve.

주석: Very good product with fast learning curve.
The support of Sisense is very good, fast response and professional answers.

장점:

The visualization part is very easy and convenient, there are no many small things to adjust like in other programs

단점:

Lack of basic features like font formatting, If you to so you can but only by javascript code.

Best product for your shift in data analytics

주석: 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.

장점:

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.

단점:

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

Powerful tool, not a great fit for everyone.

주석: Overall, our team decided to part ways with Sisense for more flexible and cost-effective options. We can certainly see the value, but perhaps it makes more sense for much larger companies with more staff specifically focused on embedded BI, perhaps as a full department.

장점:

When adopted, Sisense met the criteria we had set out for embedded analytics for our end users and some internal business analytics. The pricing was initially agreeable.

단점:

When exploring options, it was suggested to be low/no-code, which was not the case. As we got the ball rolling, we found their tools and visuals to be powerful, but very hard to customize, format, and match our brand. Support was one of the worst aspects. Many issues we brought up that blocked full deployment were not prioritized and left us seeing it as very overpriced for our use-case and business needs.

Decision Making

주석: In this context, I would like to point out that my experience in using the Sisense software was the best. Very satisfied with the deliveries.

장점:

The Sisense software has a very efficient and dynamic delivery.

단점:

The observation against that I make about the Sisense software is in relation to the accesses being made by Web with authentication. For I had some problems.

Data Visualization with Sisense

주석: Sisense is powerful tool and I used it for data management for my customers.

장점:

Sisense is powerful tool for data management, you can visualize your data with this app.

단점:

It has many feature to use but there are things to developer should improve.

Sisense is just another BI tool

주석: I liked that it promised features that were lacking in our current tool, PowerBI. However, at the end of the day, it took an extremely long time to set up and didn't end up being the perfect solution that everyone hoped it would be.

장점:

I think that there are lots of really good integrations and some really strong reporting and notification options

단점:

This product seemed to take a long time to implement, but I wasn't on the team building the reports so I cannot say what problems they encountered along the way.

Siense is feature-packed and getting better

주석: We tried a number of different products before settling on Sisense. Ultimately, we are really pleased with our decision. What Sisense offers with the eCube concept is a perfect way to promote creative use of the data but still control sensitive information.

장점:

Sisense feels more modern than other alternatives we tried. The concept of eCubes is, by far, my favorite allowing a collection of data to be containerized for reporting in any way imaginable. Automated alerts are a newer feature that is becoming very useful. The look and feel of the system overall is really nice and pleasant to use. Plugins can add a lot of functionality that isn't included out-of-the-box.

단점:

While Sisense is mostly really responsive and quick feeling, there are unexplained times of lag or unresponsiveness. Embedding visuals is difficult and they don't always work depending on where you are embedding them.

Powerful Tool!

주석: Sisense helps users get answers they need about data faster and easier than going through the IT department.

장점:

I like Sisense for the ease of use. A user can create a report quickly. Also, using scripts to customize widgets and reports is very nice.

단점:

Exporting of dashboard to use in powerpoint is not as easy as we would like.

Solid Full-Stack BI Solution

주석: Great product, great company.

장점:

The Elasticube is at the core of the SiSense product - it allows an administrator to connect to multiple disparate data sources to create a logical grouping of data. The dashboards are attractive and functional.

단점:

The product is easy for anyone with technical expertise, but non-technical users will struggle to create dashboards.

Best BI Solution currently ou there!

주석: Overall a good experience. We are in the phase of introducing Sisense company-wide.

장점:

The flexibility and ease of use for the end user. Moreover the data manipulation capabilities that procides the Dashboard Designers.

단점:

Difficult to understand the error messages. You need Sisense Support Team's at all times.

Sisense for small scale & mid scale data analytics

주석: The overall experience using Sisense is average, there are certain shortcomings related to performance.

장점:

The ease by which data reports & dashboards can be created. Availability of fast customer support & community.Reports can be scheduled to be downloaded using report manager. Custom tables can be created to create a desired view in the data model.Reports can be integrated with Printex to create PDF versions of the report using Jasper & YML.Can be installed offline as well.There is a wide variety of inbuilt aggreated & mathematical functions.

단점:

There can be memory issues while parallel loading of data into data models. Doesn't have certain features such as parameters.In the report function you cannot use string for comparison, in that case the calculation needs to be done in the data model itself.

Sisense has been a key component of our marketing product offering for 3 years. Our clients love it.

장점:

The front end of Sisense is what I like the most about this Software. Whether you are designing a Dashboard or using it you can expect and smooth and intuitive experience. From a designer standpoint: the basic charts and features of data visualization are available in the standard tool. Once you are familiar with them, you find the need to take it to the next level. Next thing you know you find yourself leveraging Sisense online resources, adding new widgets, and updating javascript very easily to make your dashboard look the way you want. From a user standpoint, looking at data, drilling and exporting is simple to figure out even without training.

단점:

I have experienced a few limitations with Sisense. When you export a dashboard into an image it doesn't look too good. I find myself taking screenshots instead which can sometimes become time consuming. I've also been a little frustrated with not being to sort data as wanted in ascending, descending or alphabetical order. I experienced a situation where I identified a design flaw for a supported widget and we were asked to financially support the development to fix the flaw. Which we didn't. We still really appreciate the tool and its many benefits overall.

Sisense is a great tool! Very easy to learn, implement and explore :-)

장점:

- Integrated data connectors joining multiple data sources and formats - Integrates with external web sites or web applications - Integrates with web portals - Interactive browser-based dashboards - Removes limitations to data size - Use Single-Sign-On to keep a single authentication mechanism - Wide range of widgets such as gauges, charts, and graphs - Can be set up and used entirely in-house - Centralized data hub - Complex business queries without programming or SQL writing - Consolidates, stores, and accumulates data - Data mash-ups - Data unification - Drag-and-drop user interface - Intuitive `script-less user interface - Embed entire dashboards or individual widgets - Enables to deliver interactive terabyte-scale analytics - Exports data to CSV, PDF, Excel, Images and other formats - Eye-grabbing visualization - Filters data by dropping fields on the canvas - Handles data at scale on a single commodity server - Identifies critical metrics using filtering, calculations

단점:

Managing the elasticube was little difficult as it sometimes hangs while performing various activities.

Best product on the market in terms of feature set and support.

주석: Provides great visualizations to ease the understanding of complex data sets.

장점:

Developing widgets for a dashboard (even complex ones) is far easier and faster than it is with competing products. User community is a strong asset. Elasticubes are able to accommodate many different files types with ease.

단점:

The initial set up turned out to be complicated and required IT investment, but perhaps that is due to the unique nature of our company's setup. Product is a bit costlier than Power BI, but the feature set and ease of use makes the cost well worth it. Though Sisense is Elasticube allows the software to quickly pull large data sets, it's difficult to create for the average user and requires a lot of technical expertise. In many cases, users must write SQL code, even though Sisense promotes its codeless reporting. However, to get to this codeless reporting you must have a very technical person to write the SQL to build their Elasticube and there are some limitations such as join types and such that create difficult workarounds. We have had former Sisense users complain to us that they experienced a lot of errors getting the Elasticube to load, and because the system relies upon the cube, Sisense won't work if the cube isn't working.

SiSense Review

주석: Our overall experience can be described as excellent. The given support is superb and our CSM helped us every step of the way. As an OEM SiSense offers the right functionalities to distribute and scale. Furthermore there is plenty of whitelabel documentation ready for distribution

장점:

What I like the most about SiSense is the easiness of use and how quick we were able to be up and running. SiSense is a feature rich application, which can be even "richer" by using community build plugins and scripts. It must be said that the Customer Support is sublime. They take Customer Succes to an entire new level

단점:

As an OEM user management is bit of an hassle. With alot of users and groups it takes a while to do this manually. They do have a rich API, but you need to develop an application to use these apis properly. Sharing dashboards among users and groups could also be more user friendly. Batch sharing dashboards or a folder is not possible at this time

Amazingly easy, fast & powerful. Great for focused insight creation & deployment. Mobile friendly

주석: Sisense distinguishes itself from an increasingly crowded marketplace with a phenomenally easy to use, fast, seamlessly integrated product. Its Elasticube server/database provides a single point ETL, Data warehouse and semantic layer rolled into one. Building a usable data model is a cakewalk compared to other products out there. Transparency and flexibility of the model is outstanding. You can easily see underlying data, create custom calculation fields using traditional SQL, preview data at will, and make changes quickly without worrying about "breaking" the data warehouse. Sisense Elasticubes accommodate multiple concurrent data sources from a variety of database types including traditional, cloud and big data. Not to mention, you can join on key fields even from Excel and CSV flat files. You may run into some slowness based on data volumes and refresh frequencies. Installation is a breeze. Download the package from their website, tweak your installation parameters and let it go. No additional scripts or components. No additional servers to be set up. This is a single machine-install that uses every drop of juice your server can provide. Make sure you choose upper end of processor and memory specs. Sisense's single web interface for designing individual visuals (charts, graphs, tables, etc) and dashboards is a pleasure to use. Whether you prefer building bottom-up or top-down, this is a truly easy interface to use as master. Filtering capability is remarkably well developed and scope/type of filters can be regulated without leaving the web page you are on. Visuals look great as they are, but if you want to tweak the look/feel and behavior of individual charts, all you need is a working knowledge of Javascript. Their website is remarkably rich with customization scripts, plugins and API libraries for most applications. If your company uses Unix based servers, may be a challenge to use since primary install package is Windows. Your mileage may vary with their scalability and governance architecture - for purists and traditionalists their approach is not "conventional". I think they have eschewed clustering for a different approach. Confirm if this works for you - especially if you expect a growth in volume/users/complexity. Fidelity of report export format and scheduled report emailing need some polish. I hear the newer versions have fixed these issues. If these are important to you, check first. Definitions of Enterprise Class vary.

Great Product, Great Service, Great Results

주석: We needed a customizable solution to gather and provide insights to over 12 seperate platforms connecting it to our Property Management system. We were able to combine Loyalty, Marketing, Sales, Revenue Management, Operations, Finance, Supply & Inventory. They all are connected now in a way that provides a unique customizable dashboard relevant to the user.

장점:

Complete service from A to Z. They guide you through setup with custom support and provide an amazing learning program to ensure you have continued success at a reduced support level. The only limit with this software is your ability to dream. We had over a dozen systems that we collected data within separately and had no idea how to get it into a central location let alone getting it connected so that we could glean valuable insights. Departments have been able to cut meetings in half & it has helped develop an inclusive culture as a result because we are no longer in the dark across our silos of data.

단점:

Learning curve would be steep if you don't have dedicated team focused on learning. They give you every available resource to be successful but it would be easy to purchase and fail without a clear objective in advance.

Exceptional value for our business

장점:

I get very valuable visualizations from ERP data which are indispensable for our sales management and sales people. Easy to use and customize, e.g. get data from different data sources (even from Domino database), create dashboards, synchronize update intervals, manage user groups. Very flexible dashboard use: via web browser or embed to ERP, great mobile application to see own dashboards. Good documentation. The best part is unparalleled customer support.

단점:

You have to invest your time to learn the concepts of BI (same for all BI tools) and to setup data sources. It is essential to plan what you need to show and how. I investigated all major BI software and I am very pleased with Sisense. Not cheap but the value for money is great.

SiSense as an OEM Solution

주석: We use SiSense as an OEM tool in place of a traditional OLAP deployment. We chose SiSense due to the out-of-the-box nature of the product, as it was quick to implement within our stack. By far, the most impressive part of SiSense has been their customer success team. Edan has been an incredible success manager for us - professional, responsive, and informed. He's managed expectations on our end exceptionally well and accurately and gotten us the help we needed when we needed it. He's the primary reason four this 4-star rating - he's been simply fabulous.

장점:

The dashboard creation wizard is pretty robust and fairly easy to use. You will need an SME within the organization - this isn't a tool that I would simply throw at someone and expect them to learn in a few weeks, but that's largely due to the wide range of capabilities the tool has. However, the wizard is much more intuitive compared to a tool like Tableau. The UI of the dashboards is beautiful and offers a nice range of customization features. It's a much prettier dashboard than Tableau. Finally, the ability to write custom Javascript for formatting preferences has proven to be a very nice feature.

단점:

The cube processing itself is quite limited - this is not a big data tool. Cube builds on our dataset take almost two hours. Part of this has to do with our Elasticube design being suboptimal, but I would argue that just provides evidence that you need a very technical SME within your organization who has experience designing OLAP models. My major objection is pricing - they charge on multiple vectors; by cube and also by a user. It's complex and the costs ramp up very quickly. I wish they'd pick one vector to price on, as it would make both budgeting and affordability much better.

Sisense is easy to use and a great tool for BI

주석: The capacity to access data from different frameworks inside one tool allows us to continuously reduce the data silos at present.

장점:

The ability to 'plug in' and connect a variety of tools within sisense is great. (API Integration). Sisense can handle large data sets which is easily view-able. The ability to bring in a number different data sources into one elasticube provides a great centralised data hub. From this we can quickly create dashboards.

단점:

There are some simple user friendly functionality pieces missing. Such as the ability to copy/ move folders across the platform.

Easy to Use BI Solution

주석: Ability to quickly determine areas for improvement within the company. All your company KPIs in one place.

장점:

- Data Modeling on Sisense is easy to learn and Sisense has lots of good tutorials - Large selection of widgets and indicators to add to your dashboard - The dashboard UI is intuitive and visually appealing - Great customer service that offers live support and resolves issues quickly - Mobile app allows you to view your dashboards on the go

단점:

- Connections to third-party software is limited, there still building connections to programs though - No easy way to control font, font size or padding around widgets, they should add this feature

Sisense has been a great addition to our toolset.

주석: Speed, efficiency, visibility of data, one source of truth, what-if capabilities

장점:

Sisense allows us to pull data from multiple sources and make available for easy analysis. Finally, we have one source of truth. Sisense widgets allow us to easily analyze the data and make critical business decisions.

Sisense is a great BI tool, what set's it apart is the customer service

장점:

The Customer Service & Support is second to none. When launching and using a product especially in such a complex area as BI it's important to have the support. Dashboard designer is great and easy to use and the schema management tool is extremely powerful.

단점:

Sisense does not yet a fully fledged "cloud" solution, but this is coming and will make the administration of the schema alot simpler for none IT savvy departments.

Good Software for Moving from Excel to BI

장점:

The UI is intuitive and very easy to get familiar with. The layout and tools are simple to understand and has a clean modern look. The self-learning videos are a good starting point and their on-boarding process is extensive and the professionals assigned to you for the OBP are knowledgeable about the software as well as Analytics. No programming needed if underlying data structures are standard and data quality is good.

단점:

May require some tricky data modelling and coding on the data sources if there are unusually complex data relationships or data quality issues. Data is compiled on scheduled builds (although which can be finely configured) and not live. Builds do tend to fail if the server does not have proper capacity for processing, storage & access restrictions.

Great Dashboard tool - Sisense

주석: I have been using Sisense for quite sometime mainly for dashboard purpose where one can view their company’s performance updated in the real time. One stand out feature is that it can process huge data from different sources like a boss. We can also create our own columns in the sisense database(ElastiCube) using SQL commands. It is definitely one of the best intelligence product in the current market.

장점:

It can easily process up data from multiple different data sources. Tool is self explanatory and it is easy to generate dashboard Beautiful visualization capabilities.

단점:

Missing a few critical connectors (e.g. Teradata)
