Pros

“For example taking leads from CRM, adding customer data from ERP, adding external website users who completed our squeeze sheet and overlaying geo data - amazing!”

Brian K.

Senior Director

“It provides strong visualization capabilities and makes data analysis more accessible once you become familiar with the platform.”

Cara H.

Adjuster

“It makes it easy to visualize data and identify trends that you cant easily see when working directly in a spreadsheet or static reports.”

Lauren L.

President

Pros

“It really makes a difference especially when first learning the software.”

Isabella C.

RevOps Manager

“This software enables me to analyze the performance of our content on demand, reducing the need to tap teammates to get the data I need.”

Meg C.

Associate Editorial Director

“While admins can adjust search parameters, users don't have the ability to set and save things like data ranges.”

Meg C.

Associate Editorial Director

Cons

“Its very slow to load, and the sharing links are annoying you should be able to copy the browser url instead of taking an extra minute to load the shareable link”

Mrwa S.

Senior Solutions Engineer

“Also, it is rather difficult to embed Tableau dashboards into web pages and provide interactive action from the web page level; the Tableau.js library and support is slightly limited.”

Robert S.

Data Analyst

“It can be slow with large datasets, and some tasks require extra data prep outside Tableau.”

Sachita B.

Student

Cons

“Sigma requires a learning curve of at least 2 weeks for new users. If users don't commit the time to learning, they will continually put off mastering and using the software, even if familiar tools like Excel and Google Sheets are less capable and take more time to create visualizations in.”

Isabella C.

RevOps Manager

“Sigma can be slow when working with very large datasets and some advanced analytical features are limited compared to other traditional BI tools.”

Ayomide V.

Human Resources and Data Analyst

“You'll either have to adjust your dates every time you use the program (which is a pain) or make sure your admin is on the ball about updating parameters.”

Meg C.

Associate Editorial Director
