Review summaries and opinions

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

ROI

Sentiment score
5.7
Domo enhances efficiency, decision-making, and revenue growth, though some face limited returns due to high costs or underutilization.
Sentiment score
7.0
Sisense streamlines report processes, saves time, and benefits decision-making, though effectiveness varies by user experience and region.
If you're actually using Domo at a very limited case and you're being charged $20,000, we've seen ROI there, but once it goes really high, you really need to check your metrics and check your profit.
Due to the data presented to stakeholders, they are able to make informed decisions that impact the day-to-day operations of the client, giving them more insights into what's happening within their organization.
I have seen a return on investment in that we can manage the Sisense environment with a very small number of users.
 

Customer Service

Sentiment score
6.7
Domo's customer and technical support is generally praised but needs improvement in responsiveness, especially for complex issues.
Sentiment score
7.6
Sisense's customer service is praised for responsiveness, expertise, and effective communication, supporting client success despite occasional delays.
No matter how complex the problem is, it can be taken care of by the support team.
They were quite professional and in around three to five working days, they had identified where they suspected there was an issue and I was able to fix it.
It's very easy to get technical support from Domo.
The support was very good.
We typically get responses within 24 hours.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
6.2
Domo supports large-scale data and user roles, but some users experience technical challenges with ETL processes and storage limits.
Sentiment score
7.4
Sisense is scalable and user-friendly, but querying time increases with more data; security requires careful management.
The fact that you're able to easily identify the pipelines or flows that have errors, and it notifies you when you're building a pipeline where you can run previews and tell where to fix issues, is helpful.
When fetching files larger than 100 MB from SFTP or any other portal, Domo becomes slow due to the heavy file size.
Everything comes under the same umbrella and it's pretty user-friendly.
It is scalable to a very large extent and we can integrate any third-party tools.
Sisense works really well for simple to medium use cases and scales well.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
6.6
Domo is praised for reliable data handling, minimal downtime, and efficiency, though some encounter occasional server connectivity issues.
Sentiment score
7.8
Sisense is generally stable, with occasional data import issues and slow dashboard loads, but overall reliable performance.
In recent years, I haven't had such cases. It's quite stable and I don't have any reservations on its stability.
In terms of overall stability of the platform, it's very stable.
During that time, we faced issues from the project side as Domo was not visible in our portal.
 

Room For Improvement

Domo users face data management and integration challenges, need better visualization, real-time processing, and improved UI and collaboration features.
Sisense should improve large dataset support, add connectors, enhance interfaces, and expand customization for better performance and user experience.
End users require a license to run their own reports and dashboards, which are fairly expensive.
Some technical aspects such as Beast Mode calculation could be improved in Domo, as it would provide more clarity and help in giving insights to clients or customer business team requirements.
One of the areas where we've had frustrations with Domo is the aesthetics. The aesthetics are quite limited compared to other BI tools such as Tableau and Power BI.
I would like to see an improvement in the live data connection, specifically making the process faster.
It could provide more connectors to integrate with emerging different data sources to exponentially increase the amount of data it can handle.
I give Sisense a nine because the integration with some third-party tools is good.
 

Setup Cost

Domo's pricing is higher but seen as valuable for its features, with flexible models and negotiable terms encouraged.
Sisense offers competitive enterprise pricing from $35,000, suitable for mid-stage startups and large enterprises, with customizable options.
Domo's pricing is high compared to other BI tools, and it is costly.
For long-time users, it can become expensive, but the trade-off is access to the entire platform instead of licensing different components separately.
They quoted approximately one dollar per KB.
There was no significant difference in pricing between Sisense and ThoughtSpot.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing shows that pricing is a little bit higher when compared to other applications, but that justifies the use case.
 

Valuable Features

Domo is praised for ease of use, data integration, real-time insights, and collaboration, enhancing data accessibility for non-technical users.
Sisense seamlessly integrates diverse data sources, enabling efficient dashboard creation with fast processing and strong support, enhancing business efficiency.
App Studio is valuable because it allows all the customization we needed; we can decode it, with the view and grid which are all I need, drill-downs, and everything can be done the way I need it.
None of the other tools provide the kind of support that enables chatting and working on the same item simultaneously.
I have been using it for four years and have been able to extract the information I need from it.
It offers two ways to access data: by cubing the data or hitting it live.
It allows the user to cater to different use cases and is a very fast aggregator across different data sources, giving you the historical context and helping in operationalizing your data.
Sisense has positively impacted my organization by drastically reducing the time taken to build the data cube, and we can see real-time analytics.

Featured Reviews

Dave Ramos - PeerSpot reviewer
Has enabled me to integrate AI workflows and drive self-service analytics across organizations
There's room for improvement in their focus on enterprise clients. As a small business owner, there's nothing as powerful as Domo available for smaller organizations. I understand it's a business focus for them as they're looking to expand in that direction, but there's an opportunity to capture the SMB market by creating more capabilities. It's not necessarily about technical capabilities, but rather pricing that's geared towards the small business market. Capability-wise, it's very robust. If I had to stretch, I would suggest more integrations to other common tools, such as Zapier and operational tools like Mailchimp, where you can build and extend ETL in a no-code environment. While there are capabilities you can build from Domo's open APIs, having more native integrations in a no-code, low-code environment would be beneficial. Domo has many native integrations, but better tools for the SMB operational pipeline would be valuable.
Vishal Halbe - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
