Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We utilize Sigma for internal reporting on client traffic and behavior, enabling us to understand the differences among various sectors and demographics. It is also used in an embedded context for client-facing reports on similar metrics.

Pros

Data connections.
High quality visualizations.
Good documentation.

Cons

PDF exports do not format well.
Conditional display of visualizations or content blocks.
Data sets are difficult to work with.

We were able to set up client-facing embedded reports with ease and security. The interface is not difficult to learn, although we may not be aware of or lack the necessary expertise to utilize more advanced features that would likely benefit us.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Sigma Computing to find patterns in my data and create dashboards to strategize business decisions based on my analysis. I enjoy using Sigma Computing because of the flexibility it gives me
to share my dashboards with other users and allow them to edit or view them as well.

Pros

Customer Technical Support (Sigma Help)
Addressing feedback from users (implementing requested features)
Providing demo's on new product launches

Cons

Sometimes my dashboard crashes if there are too many pages on it
Ability to share dashboards externally (I'd like to add some to my public portfolio like I do with Tableau)

Likelihood to Recommend

Sigma Computing is very beginner friendly because of their technical support team, leveraging this at the beginning of my Sigma journey was immensely helpful. Even today, where I am more comfortable with Sigma i'll run into an issue and their support team will always be there to walking me through a solution. I also think it's easier to make more cohesive and clean dashboards on Sigma Computing.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Sigma Computing for our brokerage, business development, ops, and product dashboards. They help us understand how our team is performing, where to pursue future opportunities, and manage our internal data. Everyone in the org uses it

Pros

Ease of use - I'm a non-technical user but have built out the bulk of our dashboards
Their support is world class - their chat function is super quick to respond and knowledgeable
Their tutorials and webinars are useful for new learnings

Cons

There are occasional bugs
Their AI functionality is still lacking

Likelihood to Recommend

In my opinion, any org that is data-driven should use Sigma Computing - it really enables the entire team to build dashboards and explore data within the org because it is so user friendly.

July 18, 2023

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Sigma to organize, track, and display data across every team at our organization. I am in Sigma every single day to track utilization of our services for our clients. We use Sigma to identify trends, create reports for internal and external use, and track KPIs.

Pros

Visualization of Data
Ability to Drill Down to Data
Exporting Data is very easy
Creation of new data elements, tables and visualizations is easy

Cons

Ability to download a table as an image instead of taking a screenshot

Likelihood to Recommend

Sigma is very well suited for organizations that are requiring different visualizations of the same data to support multiple teams. We have dashboards that take the same data but create different tabs so that different teams have the ability to visualize the information specific to their department.

Sigma Computing as a Data Management System

July 4, 2023

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Sigma Computing makes it much easier for us to analyze data from your software. It is an easy-to-use solution and with very good technical support, they are always at your disposal. We are a company that sells short-term rental data and using their software has made it a lot easier for us to develop tools.

Pros

Tech support - they are always there for you.
Ease of use - it is really intuitive what each tool they provide does. They also provide multiple tools depending on the needs of their users.
Great documentation - most of the times I've had a doubt about how to do something, their docs are good enough to answer those questions.

Cons

Solve the tickets quicker - they fix bugs or add features from users feedback

Likelihood to Recommend

If you have a large data warehouse and want to build tools from this data, Sigma Computing is a great tool to achieve this quickly and efficiently. It's easy to implement in your codebase if needed and it's really versatile. I think the best scenario for using Sigma Computing is when you strictly want to focus on your data treatment and processing rather than on user interfaces, so if this is what you are looking for, this is a great tool.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Sigma to deliver curated analytics directly to our clients via an embedded workbook. The Sigma product has shifted delivery and product development to the product team, and allowed our technical team to focus on data aggregation, transform, QA and analytics. We use Sigma to completely overhaul our product offering and streamline our operations.

Pros

Sigma has plenty of onboarding documentation
Sigma has excellent customer support
Sigma is powerful, they have features I need before I realize I need them

Cons

Sigma can have a steep learning curve for the un-initiated
Sigma can sometimes deprecate features or stop supporting them without much notice

Likelihood to Recommend

Sigma is great if you already have a cleaned set of data that needs to be unleashed in the hands of your users. It is well suited for building curated workbooks and is flexible for various implementation needs. Sigma is also great to help QA your data.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My team and I use Sigma Computing every day to present KPIs, business metrics, long-term tracking, and troubleshooting of our services. It allows use to easily present information to the executives at our company and convey data in a way that is more digestable for them and others who are not as familiar with the deep data.

Pros

makes it easy to quickly see changes to our tables reflected in dashboards and reports
makes visualizing data over time easy to do with quick line graphs
makes it easy to view data in tabular form before performing aggregate operations

Cons

formulas in workbooks. Right now you can't use the equal sign in a text box without it thinking it's a formula
more aesthetically pleasing workbook formatting options
add descriptions to workbook/worksheet files so the person opening it can know what they're getting before they open and load all the data

Likelihood to Recommend

Sigma Computing is great for companies that work with data warehouses. It makes it very easy to make a change to a table and see it reflected almost immediately in the cloud. Whereas other software like Tableau makes it more difficult to quickly load new data. Sigma Computing is not as useful for aesthetically pleasing dashboards however, as their formatting options are pretty limited.

Sigma Computing Tailors Data to What You Need!

September 6, 2022

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Sigma to track employee performance as well as deep dive inventory issues. I also use Sigma to audit employee actions and also use Sigma data to lead performance evaluations with my team. Additionally, I can also use Sigma to compare my site's performance with that of other sites across the nation. Sigma does a great job at compiling all relevant information onto one easy-to-read spreadsheet.

Pros

Making data easy to read
Holds employees accountable by tracking specific inputs
Aggregates nationwide data and displays all on one table

Cons

Load time when being used heavily by multiple users
Updating data would be great if it happened in real-time
Making charts and graphs downloadable instead of just raw data

Likelihood to Recommend

Sigma is best suited for data validation and data aggregation. I believe if companies are looking for a service that will compile data from multiple stores/branches at once and compare them all on the same data table, Sigma is perfect for that use. Additionally, Sigma is not the best for companies that are looking to track actionable items or plan projects from start to finish.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Sigma Computing as an embedded solution for our users. We use Sigma to help our customers see high level overview how they are doing in terms of the jobs they completed within the day. If the user is looking at the reports from a management perspective, the reporting shows how their employees are doing at a high level.

Pros

Sigma does very well in terms of aggregation of data points.
Sigma is awesome with support. LOVE the live chat feature.
Sigma is great in terms of being very intuitive during the dataset build process.
I love how easy it is to build visualizations.

Cons

The bubble chart feature is very hard to configure.

Likelihood to Recommend

Sigma is great in terms of aggregation of data. For example, I was trying to aggregate some data points and Sigma was smart enough to allow me to group the data in certain ways. This was something that other platforms were able to do successfully. The Sigma product is really good at making building visualizations and making it very easy to use! Extremely intuitive.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Sigma Computing is used for all of our reporting and analytics in the organization. It is used daily by many users in the company to track KPIs and other more detailed facets of the business as well. Sigma is also used for external presentations and leave behinds for our teams.

Pros

Data focused presentation
Drill down capability
Basic visualizations

Cons

Pixel perfect reporting
Multi user editing

Likelihood to Recommend

Sigma has been great for reproducing that "spreadsheet" experience for users with appropriate user license levels (explorer and above). It is lacking in the ability to create pixel perfect reporting and branded solutions out of the box. We have done lots of customization with plug ins to create exactly the visualizations and branded information we want to present.
