Amazingly powerful and efficient
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to have access to raw data without delay. The charts are clean and easy to produce. Python and R functionality enables you to make more complex graphs and do more sophisticated analysis than raw SQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how hard it is to move charts within a dashboard. If you have to rearrange sections of dashboards, it takes minutes of scrolling and shifting the reordering window. I suggest adding functionality to be able to move groups of charts together.

Great data analytics tool - not the best design
What do you like best about the product?
We used Periscope Data for internal data analytics within a lot of our departments. In my department, we used it to keep track of customer subscriptions and customer professional service resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
Creating custom data charts was a bit complicated, and the look and feel (design) of Periscope was not great. It was laggy sometimes, but that may have been because it was pulling data from Salesforce.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using data to perform data-driven decisions. Utilizing data to determine hiring needs, potential problems or shortcomings of a department or specific team member, etc.

Infinite Capabilities
What do you like best about the product?
Whenever someone asks "is that possible with Sisense"? The answer is almost certainly yes, we just have to figure out how to make it happen. We can pull in data from various sources and create links that tie them to together for the results we need to see. The capabilities are vast!

Our team is working on more complex issues that cannot always be easily handled by the Sisense Support staff. Their professional engineers are very helpful when available, though!

Great Customization and Flexibility, but Requires Research/Implementation Time
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of implementing most plug-ins, very customizable, flexible, open-source community.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hard to find or be aware of unsupported features, high reliability on support, lot of effort sometimes needed for seemingly basic features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Customization regarding business model, company-specific needs, and features implemented are fantastic. We have custom branding and a very specific branding and re-sell model and Sisense is accommodating and flexible. There are many different ways to tweak your experience, unfortunately, it either requires a dedicated developer (or a couple, some for data modeling and design, some for networking and server management, and some for Javascript, HTML, Python, and CSS coding) or a lot of support time to get it running the way you want. It also requires a bit of digging to find the plug-in, feature, or community help you need, though there are a lot of resources available. The design and front-end are appealing and functionality is very solid once everything else is figured out. Scalability, product improvements, and company growth are all very positive. They have a very broad clientele base, but are able to create great custom solutions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ask yourself if you want an out-of-the-box solution, have the resources to fully utilize Sisense, and understand what your needs are.
