"Globally, the ability to create document templates in several formats by using a rich syntax is simple and clear to understand."
"To generate these same tabular formatted reports with a code-only solution would have taken a lot longer to implement than the Docmosis template-based approach. Docmosis templates were easier to design as we were able to use Microsoft Word to create them. The templates made it easy to make any changes to reports and provided flexibility in our design approach."
"A new report’s template creation is very often manipulation of a user’s layout of a report. A report can be ready in a day or less, once stored procedures are created as per sections in the report."
"Since our initial development, this feature has required very little maintenance. And when changes are requested, it is rather easy to change a Word document template and new staff can be quickly trained to modify a report."
"There is flexibility in laying out tables that is akin to UI front-end design."
"The ability to embed, and dynamically repeat, templates within each other is a very simple yet extremely powerful tool."
"Sisense has helped us gain knowledge about our customers, as well as highlighting data quality issues to correct."
"There are many built-in connectors, which allow us to easily add new sources of data, often in minutes."
"No issues with stability. It is a very stable solution."
"The most valuable thing I have found is the ability for Sisense to connect data from totally different sources."
"Support is very responsive and clearly one of the strengths of Sisense. I have always received a fast response and the staff is very helpful."
"The solution's technical support team is good."
"ElastiCube Manager is a very easy to use ETL tool, which includes the ability to easily transform raw data into reusable data."
"A very simple setup: Easy to download, install, and updates are pain free."
"The challenge in usage when we developed the reports four years ago was the limited logic that can be applied to manipulate and display data. That functionality was largely transferred over to the database layer in creating the data output that was to be displayed."
"Version control and restricted access to some users for template editing could be a useful addition."
"We are facing new challenges such as internationalization. The next big challenge will be to offer even more date formats and numbers that cover the majority of countries. It will be to also think about features, such as number to text conversion, or the reverse which is currently only available in English but is in great demand by our international customers."
"It would be great to have improved diagnostic and debugging tools. When report templates are complex, sometimes any minor modification needs to be thoroughly tested to ensure that it does not disrupt a previously designed template."
"The solution's setup process could be easier."
"I would like Sisense to improve its performance, particularly when we are dealing with large-scale data."
"This solution does not have tabs. In order to have tabs, you have to download an add-on to mimic the tabs. They should be integrated to improve the solution."
"The administrative side of Sisense is a little cumbersome and confusing."
"At present there are additional costs involved if we wish to share our data queues within this solution, which we would like to see removed."
"They should improve the filters to create downloaded data by moving them to the top of the dashboard."
"Larger datasets will sometimes give a "Accumulated logs" error when trying to make minor changes. T"
"The initial version we purchased only ran on Windows servers, which was less than ideal for our DevOps team. I believe that has been remedied in the latest release."
