Sigma is the fastest and easiest BI tool to deploy. Iteration on the semantic layer is a cinch. Sigma is a delight to work with as a vendor. Their support is superbly responsive (during business hours - they don't have global timezone coverage yet). Sigma's pricing model is reasonable and very friendly to orgs where 80+% of the employees need live data access. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Sigma has the right model. From the user perspective, the columnar formula editing feels familiar enough, and the learning curve is friendly to anyone with spreadsheet experience. From an architect perspective, the semantic layer is lightweight and easy to adapt to ever-changing schemas. The UI covers most of the functionality you'll want, and for everything else you can fall back on writing your own code, like cron strings or SQL queries. I let Sigma do probably 95% of my querying, leaving the gnarliest 5% for me to write in their SQL runner. I do a significant amount of lightweight ELT work in Sigma as well. I like being able to write massive views that I know I'm going to have to update often, and just like Snowflake / Sigma materialize them for me. When I use Sigma to query S3 directly in the SQL runner - usually to POC some new data that hasn't made its way out to the business teams yet - this functionality is really convenient because those queries are not efficient. I just need to get new data in front of the business as quickly as possible. #### Cons Visual discovery is lacking when compared to mature tools like Tableau. Sigma needs to continue chipping away at the Tableau features around dashboarding and charting. #### Reasons for choosing Sigma In descending order: 1. Strength of self-service features 2. Ease of maintenance / speed of implementation 3. Adaptability of semantic layer features 4. Cost / vendor practices #### Reasons for switching to Sigma Analytical features, wanted a hosted service. --- ### Excel for your data warehouse - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Luke B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: July 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I help B2B SaaS startup founders and CMOs with their customer data platforms and reporting. The ability to create additional columns on your data containing custom formulas and the ability to sort and filter on multiple columns is great. One of my clients uses Sigma and I’ve been extremely impressed at how easy and quickly it is to build reports on multiple tables of data without writing any complex SQL. For example, sessionization of page view and event time series data is a complex SQL query which can be performed within a few minutes in Sigma without any knowledge of SQL. It’s a great tool for business users. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I’ m very impressed at Sigma’s ease of use for building reports from my clients data warehouse running on Snowflake. If you can use Excel, and understand the data in your database you can be up and running extremely quickly without having to write SQL queries or any code to describe your database. The ability to create additional columns on your data containing custom formulas and the ability to sort and filter on multiple columns is great. #### Cons As with any tool there is a learning curve to the interface, but since it’s similar to a spreadsheet, it’s quick to learn. Theres no feature yet to save custom formulas to be used across worksheets so you’ll have to copy and paste them for now. --- ### Sigma Review - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Marissa C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Retail - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: June 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I use sigma multiple times a day, 5 days a week and with the exception of a few internal tweaks, I am generally happy with the program. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Functionality: 2/5 #### Pros Easy exporting into excel, formula customization, overall data customization, saving personal reports #### Cons 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. --- ### Incredibly Useful Tool for data analysis and workflow - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Sam J. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: June 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The speed with which I'm able to pull together disparate data and generate some useful insights. The Dashboard functionality has been particularly useful in creating reporting our teams can use with customers and prospects. #### Cons Version management and permissions. It's hard to keep everyone looking at the same version of a document, to view data, a document is created and generically named, so our folder system is getting very full and hard to navigate. Additionally, there's no way to tell if another user will be able to see a given document without asking them to try viewing it, and there's no way for them to request view access to that document. --- ### It's growing on me! - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros It works! We used Chartio before and it was always timing out. Sigma is reliable and accurate. #### Cons The way it auto sizes objects is annoying. I also feel like you need more technical data analysis skills to do some common things (like a year over year comparison). --- ### Lots of functionality - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Alaia S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Real Estate - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: May 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Great UI and incredible functionality! Been very happy with the product so far. #### Cons Definitely a learning curve at first -- lots to learn. --- ### Sigma - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Retail - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: May 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Very positive in my daily work. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros 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. #### Cons 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. --- ### Great tool our needs - fast and easy navigation of snowflake data, quick reporting, data validation - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Capital Markets - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: May 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros 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. #### Cons Not a tableau/power bi replacement, some features still immature --- ### Excellent alternative to pivot tables and spreadsheets - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jose F. G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Internet - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: May 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. So far, we've managed to simplify our business metrics visualization and enabled querying that information to non-technical users which is a big win. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros 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. #### Cons 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. --- ### Easy use for non-SQL experts - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Transportation/ Trucking/ Railroad - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: June 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. - Easy to use - Easy to learn - Great for non-SQL writter #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I work for tech companies and one of my main challenges was always not beign able to write my own queries. It was veyr useful to be able to create Joins more viasually without actually writting the script. This allowed to created my own results without depending on other. #### Cons Although this is not my feedback (since most of my experience with sigma was SUPER positive), my compnay says it's quite high (cost) for the benefit --- Showing 1 - 10 of 83 Reviews [See All Reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/bi/sigma-profile/reviews/) ## Sigma Popular Comparisons [Microsoft Power BI vs Sigma](https://www.softwareadvice.com/bi/microsoft-power-bi-profile/vs/sigma/)[ImportYeti vs Sigma](https://www.softwareadvice.com/bi/importyeti-profile/vs/sigma/)[Tableau vs Sigma](https://www.softwareadvice.com/bi/sigma-profile/vs/tableau/)[Microsoft SQL Server vs Sigma](https://www.softwareadvice.com/bi/microsoft-sql-server-profile/vs/sigma/)[Looker vs Sigma](https://www.softwareadvice.com/bi/looker-profile/vs/sigma/)[Domo vs Sigma](https://www.softwareadvice.com/bi/domo-profile/vs/sigma/)[Qlik Sense vs Sigma](https://www.softwareadvice.com/bi/qlik-sense-profile/vs/sigma/) [Compare All Alternatives](https://www.softwareadvice.com/bi/sigma-profile/alternatives/) ## Other Top Recommended AI App Builder Software [Airtable](https://www.softwareadvice.com/project-management/airtable-profile/) **4.6** (2244) Recently recommended **0** times [Hostinger](https://www.softwareadvice.com/ecommerce/hostinger-profile/) **4.5** (656) Recently recommended **0** times [Aha!](https://www.softwareadvice.com/help-desk/aha-profile/) **4.7** (565) Recently recommended **0** times [OutSystems](https://www.softwareadvice.com/paas/outsystems-profile/) **4.6** (372) Recently recommended **0** times Stuck Between Options?
