Executive SummaryUpdated on Jan 1, 2025

CloverETL and Sisense compete in data integration and analytics. Sisense appears to have the upper hand due to its advanced analytics features despite CloverETL's competitive pricing and support.

Features: CloverETL focuses on data transformation and integration with robust ETL processes. It efficiently handles complex data processing tasks and provides effective data connectivity options.

Has improved project turnaround time with customizable dashboards and faster data delivery to stakeholders

Sisense has some limitations, especially in rendering tables or graphs. For example, if you want to perform custom sorting or searching based on multiple columns, that becomes quite tricky. Providing more control over how the data is sorted or filtered would be quite useful. Additionally, it could provide more connectors to integrate with emerging different data sources to exponentially increase the amount of data it can handle. Sisense should provide more support for CI/CD, as we found the CI/CD approach quite limited, which is something that can be worked on. Some data scientists suggested more features can be offered by providing different models for data analytics. Sisense can improve by adding more features for handling complex schemas and making the pricing straightforward. The dashboarding features are good enough, but additional features could make it even more attractive. Also, CI/CD support or source control support would be really helpful.
